Beauty Trends: Stained Lips NY Fall/Winter 2008 Part 4

Fall just wouldn't be the same without red lips. Instead of a strong defined red lip, colours in burgundy and wine will stain the lips as seen on the runways of Costello Tagliapietra, Carolina Herrara, Peter Som, Donna Karan, Milly, Rodarte, Ports 1961, and DKNY. It's definitely more wearable and the great thing is that there's so many fantastic lip stains on the market right now. The look is effortless, minimal makeup on eyes and just a bit of contouring on the cheeks. The lips are intended to be imperfect so skip the liner. The stain is to be patted and pressed in with your finger for a softer effect.

Yay Laura Mercier Lip Stain! I have it in Scarlet and I wore it three times last week! (Which is a record for a makeup whore like myself!) LOL. I find stained lips look great this winter and I hope the pop of colour provides a nice transition into spring.

I *big heart* Laura Mercier's lip stains. Mulberry is a wonderful color that really lasts. Stila's Cherry Crush is calling to me; a sheer red shine is so pretty.

Thanks for the great reviews!

ok now I'm feeling left out! I am soo needing to have Laura Mercier's stains! And the pop of colour will definitely be transitioning into the spring! Gotta check out Stila's Cherry Crush but I'm wondering if it's too much like Benefit's Pocket Benetint??
