Punch up your pout Swap your usual go-to red lip for special occasions with a bold, citrusy shade that will instantly brighten up your entire look. An unexpected pop of color like orange is enough to ensure that regardless of what you are wearing, you'll still make an entrance. Choose a lipstick that has a creamy texture and smooth finish, like Shiseido's Shimmering Rouge in Mango, $25. The smaller tube makes it easy to apply before you hit the town and the moisturizing agents make sure lips won't look cakey after a few sips of champagne or a few nibbles of Hors d'oeuvres.
I've used both and heard that CC creams, short for color and correct, which are basically BB creams on steroids. They provide more coverage, yet still go on sheer; they're more moisturizing; and they contain hard-core anti-aging ingredients. I've used Olay's CC Tone and Correct and this particular CC cream contains lightening ingredients (N-acetyl glucosamine and niacinimide) that help brigthen your skin tone, helping to even out any pigmentation after six to eight weeks of continuous use. Instantly though, it gives your complexion a luminous, flawless-looking glow. Bottom line: You're getting short- and long-term tone correction—and anti-aging benefits—in a bottle. Awesome.
