A bright shade of orange lipstick looks nothing short of delicious when applied to our pout. Combined with glowing skin, scorching hot temperatures, and maybe even a sultry smoky eye (if you're into that kind of thing), a vibrant orange lip simmers for summer, and it couldn't be more versatile.

When executed correctly, a bold orange lipstick can be totally wearable -- and gorgeous. To make the trend work in your favor (as in double-takes, compliments and confidence, aplenty), there are a couple of factors that beg consideration. First, bear in mind that your skin tone will dictate your ideal shade and saturation of pigment. And second, regardless of whether you prefer a matte, stained or high-gloss finish, a hydrating formula is essential for nixing a parched, flaky pucker. To help you select your new BFF shade, we've rounded up the hottest orange lipsticks that gift your pout with the perfect pop of mouth-watering color.

Hot Coral
Try: Makeup Geek Showstopper Creme Stain in Tango, $22

A bright pinky coral, this long-lasting liquid lipstick is a creamy compromise for those who crave minimal maintenance and a luxe, lightweight texture. Thanks to a plush and (and precise!) applicator, the budge-proof formula is easy to navigate -- a non-negotiable when it comes to a statement-making orange lip. Though fabulous on any skin tone, it's especially flattering for those with medium skin and warmer undertones -- i.e. the veins on the inside of your wrist look more green than blue.

Retro Orange
Try: L'Oreal Infallible Lip Paint in Orange Envy, $9.99

A gorgeous throwback to 1950s glamour, this true orange formula from L'Oreal feels like Marilyn, Elizabeth and Sophia in a tube. With its supersaturated pigment and irresistible price tag, this paint-like lippie delivers mouthwatering color in a single swipe. Suggested pairings: champagne, French macaroons and a marathon of film noir. Try it if you have fair skin with warm undertones or medium skin with cool undertones (veins look blue, not green).

Electric Orange
Try: YSL Vinyl Cream Lip Stain in Orange Electro, $36

We'd be lying if we said we don't expect a lot from our lipstick. And to be perfectly honest, even the most promising of formulas have a knack for leaving our pouts dehydrated, flaky and devastatingly underwhelmed. Therefore, when a product claims to deliver shine, coverage and a hefty ten hours of wear, our interest is piqued (we are optimists, after all). Enter: one of summer's hottest exceptions -- YSL's Vinyl Cream Lip Stain -- a bold, beautiful, and surprisingly hydrating pick that we can't stop applying. Try this orange lipstick if you have darker skin with warm undertones.

Flaming Orange
Try: Wet n Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Matte Lipstick in Flame Of The Game, $4.99

Serious question: What's not to like about a product that includes "catsuit" in the name? As it turns out, absolutely nothing. With its smooth-as-butter formula, lightweight consistency, and saturated, matte finish, trust us when we say our pucker (and wallet) have never looked fuller. Try it if you have dark or fair skin with cooler undertones.
