Because this season calls for a number of festivities, we’re given a lot of opportunities to experiment with our fashion and beauty looks. Thankfully, we can get an endless supply of inspiration from the Spring/Summer 2018 runways, which has gotten us falling in love with color all over again.
From bold Crayola brights to soft pastels, this season’s colors will definitely catch your eye, no matter what kind of style you see yourself to have. And what better way to pair your colorful outfits with a bold lip?
One of our top pics? The LAURA MERCIER Velour Extreme Matte Lipstick. Made in 24 rich colors, the easy-to-use product delivers intense coverage and long-lasting comfort that we all look for in a matte lipstick. Here are our favorite ways to wear them with SS ’18’s hottest colors:
1. Bright Red
This season, bold, bright red is making a huge comeback, as seen in the Versace SS ’18 runway. Go the extra mile and pair your red ensembleEnsembleA complete, coordinated outfit in which each garment and accessory is chosen to work together as one look. Stylists build ensembles around a theme, color story, or occasion, and theGo to Ensemble Glossary with an equally red lip. Our suggestion? The LAURA MERCIER Velour Extreme in Fire.
2. Ultra Violet
Named as Pantone’s color of the year, ultra violet is both enigmatic and bewitching. We’re loving its take on the Gucci SS ’18 show, which can be complimented with the deeper, more muted Velour Extreme in Boss.
3. Mocha
Who says that nudes were taking a break? The shade of mocha was spotted at the Max Mara SS ’18 show. Earthy and chic at the same time, we would pair this with the nude Velour Extreme in Fierce.
4. Pastel Pink
On the Jason Wu SS ’18 runway, we were given a lighter and cooler version of the famed millennial pink that is more pastel. Refreshing and feminine, we would wear this with Velour Extreme in Ruthless.
5. Orange Sherbet
The summer heat may be at its peak right now, so we choose to cool down with a sweet orange sherbet shade, as seen in the Chanel SS ’18 runway. Compliment this look with the bright Velour Extreme in Stylin.
