So, you wanted to see some of my orange (…. actually, more coral on second look) lips. See if I was full of more choko than a McDonalds apple pie or if the theory held some H2O.

Well, here you go, fruits. Two silly photos that prove a bright lip can be done and you won’t look like Grandma Joan, but conversely, rather fresh indeed.

See the many visible bronzer particles on my cheeks? They are crucial, as I keep saying. Looking tanned the the key. I like Estee Lauder’s Sunbronzer, M.A.C Mineralize and well, most bronzers that have a teeeny bit of shimmer throughout. But, y’know, sometimes a non-shimmer effect takes my fancy, and I’ll use my St Tropez bronzer. (No, I am not normal. I have more bronzers than any woman should have. But it’s my job.) Point is, bronzer is go.

For a CRAZY, intense, Chlo-Sev orange lip I like Napoleon in Hera or Pout’s plumping gloss in orange, but the one I wear immediately above and that I am enjoying most during this sure-to-not-last phase is Laura Mercier lipstick in Tangerine, which incidentally, my BFF, Donk, also, without knowing I loved it, bought to love and appreciate. Isn’t that WILD?

Here are our happy matching coral-based orange lipsticks that we love because they make us feel alive during rubbish June weather. Join our club if you want. We’re fun.
