According to New York Fashion Week, reddish/brown eye shadows, along with nude lips, will be all the rage for the 2010 Fall season.  Feeling completely underwhelmed by that statement?   Me too!  Nude lips have been around for too many seasons.  I’d never want to play down my lips…they are my best feature! 

I do agree with the general rule that if you are going to do a heavy eye shadow, you should keep your lips more neutral.  At the core, it’s good advice.  However, barely noticeable nude  lips are so boring.  They bring nothing to the party.  It makes your teeth look yellow.  And so many women, in an attempt to do the nude lip, have gone ultra-shimmery in color, looking like a bad Bon Jovi flashback to the 80s. 

Conversely, red lips have been around since Cleopatra and will always be in fashion.  For more thoughts on Red Lips, see here.  

What do you think about Fall’s projected look in cosmetics?  Love it or lose it?  I’m on Team Lose It when it comes to this look. 

Proof that everyone looks good in red lipstick.   When is the last time you wore red lipstick?  I’ve been a red-lips fan since childhood.  It works on every hair color, every skin tone.  It’s the epitome of sexy…we love that!
