#Trending: Power Pout

PULLING OFF THE PERFECT red lip is the original beauty power move and, lucky for boss babes everywhere, it never seems to go out of style. Just in time to spring forward, orangey- red tones popped up on S/S 2020 runways from Dolce & Gabbana to Prabal Gurung. So save those blue-reds for next winter and start heating things up with a Miami Beach- worthy shade. To achieve the bold look at home, prep is key. “Start with an exfoliating scrub to remove any residue and dryness, and to soften and condition the lips,” says Jane McKay, M.A.C senior national artist. Next, use a freshly-sharpened lip pencil to create the frame for your lip colour. When it comes to pick- ing a lippie, consider how long you want the look to last: “If I want a long-wearing finish that stays put, I like to work with a matte lipstick (with or without a brush) to fill in the lip,” McKay says. A shiny finish creates more volume, she adds. Look for a gloss with high colour payoff, shine and moisture that’s made to last.” — Lora Grady
