Summer ‘12 Trend: Bold Lips

By Katherine Base, June 22nd, 2012

Bold lipsticks are what every woman needs to add to her cosmetic bag this season. Pucker up and try a daring new color to show off your lips for this summer. Arrays of shades of reds, plums, magentas, oranges, yellows, and nudes are appearing everywhere from television, to city streets. I must say that I was always quite skeptical about being able to pull off bright lip colors, but once I gave it a try, I became addicted. Nowadays, you’ll never catch me without a funky lipstick in my pocketbook. Below are the hottest, and some of my favorites lip-color shades of the season:
