Yahoo Lifestyle How To Wear Pink Lipstick
Follow Ashley and Jess Hart's lead and wear bright pink lipstick today for Pink Hope's Bright Pink Lipstick Day.
Now in its fourth year Bright Pink Lipstick Day, aims to encourage Australians to have a conversation about their family’s hereditary health, specifically their risk of breast and ovarian cancer.
So have a little fun with your makeup today and make a statement with a bright pink lip.
A bold lip gives you maximum impact with minimum effort, says Shiseido's artistic director Dick Page, a swipe of lipstick "makes the face look finished in every way".
For foolproof application, apply straight from the tube before pressing lips together and using a brush to perfect the shape. Touch-ups are also a cinch.
"Blot with a tissue and reapply," suggests Page. "Dusting a little loose powder along the edges can help stabilise the colour, too." Give a little lip with our edit of spring's hottest shades.
