RED ALERT.
Nothing completes an outfit like an intense crimson lip. Chanel’s Rouge Allure in 247 Ultraberry is a creamy, purple-red shade that flatters most skin tones. If you prefer long-lasting matte finishes, try Dior’s Diorific Mat Lipstick in 950 Splendor or Diorific Matte Fluid in 004 Luxury. Lancôme’s L’Absolu Rouge in Matte 198 is also enriched with lip-conditioning ingredients for comfortable wear. Don’t forget your cheeks: Bobbi Brown’s Glow to Go Blush & Illuminate packs a flattering pink blush and a nifty highlighting fluid so you can touch up on the go.

A thin layer of Cosme Decorte’s AQMW Elegant Glow Liquid Foundation all over the face and a dab of Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Cream Shadow in Nude Beach on your lids will get you glowing in a flash. Intensify your gaze with Dior’s 5 Couleurs Splendor in 066 Smoky Sequins and keep your lips neutral with M.A.C’s Lipstick in Bit of Bubbly, followed by a dab of its Lipglass in It’s Just Like Honey. Add a vibrant punch of colour—and keep lips hydrated—with Shu Uemura’s Tint In Balm in 04 Sugar Coral. Paint your tips in a chrome shade like Chanel’s Le Vernis in 540 Liquid Mirror to stand out from the crowd and keep Bobbi Brown’s Lip Balm SPF 15 in your purse at all times since it doubles as a cuticle balm. Finally, a spritz of Loewe 001 Woman EDP leaves a lingering trail of ultra-sexy sandalwood, cedarwood and musk.
