2016 Spring Beauty: Maybelline Purple Lipstick

Arianne Suggs April 1, 2016April 1, 2016Leave a Comment

Honestly, this has to be one of the BIGGEST beauty teases ever! This week Maybelline cosmetics released BTS (behind the scenes) shots of model, Jourdan Dunn, in a brand new must-have lip shade. There was only one problem. The secret lip is a yet to be released Maybelline purple lipstick. God have mercy on all of our beauty souls!

If Maybelline wanted to start a cosmetic frenzy aka World War Lip 3, they definitely got their wish. Lipstick fans immediately began inquiring about the lip tint shrouded in mystery and Maybelline kept their lips sealed. Loving that shade of purple on Dunn? You are so not alone. Here is what other ladies were saying,

“OMG I want this lip color!!”

“Love.”

“This colour.”

“Love the lip.”

Sentiments like the ones above went on and on and on for hours. At this very moment in time, Maybelline has still not said zilch about the purple lip color. Nevertheless, the Maybelline purple lipstick in question fits with their spring 2016 purple collection that they have nicknamed, “the purple posse.” The royal color products include purple liner, shadow and of course lipstick. Could one of these vibrant and bold lip colors from the collection be the lipstick that we seek?!

Only time shall tell when it comes to this little makeup dilemma. We will definitely keep you posted on any beauty developments in regards to the tint name as well as release date. Until then, we will just continue to admire the beautiful shade from afar and slightly hate on Jourdan for having the opportunity to wear it already. Just kidding, we love ya Jourdan!

Hotline Bling Drake Kisses & Tells With Tom Ford Lips and Boys Collection

Arianne Suggs October 23, 2015October 23, 2015Leave a Comment

In all honesty, this week should have a holiday named after hip hop artist Drake, because who of us did not watch hours upon hours (at work and at home LOL) of #DrakeAlwaysOnBeat remixed videos? Drake released the dancing, multi-colored set music video for his single Hotline Bling that took off like a wildfire on social media within minutes. Now Drake is ending the week in the news again but this time it isn’t music related.

Drake along with actor Jake Gyllenhaal are apart of Tom Ford’s second installment of lip colors that fall within his Lips & Boys collection. This line of lip shades in the end will encompass 50 lip tints all related to men that are connected to Tom Ford in some way, shape or form. Therefore, what is the degree of separation between designer Tom Ford and Drake?

You may recall that Drake’s song Tuscan Leather aptly named after Tom Ford’s popular fragrance where he specifically names Tom Ford. Can’t quite remember the single? Check out this performance to get a quick shot of memory lane.

Got it now? We thought you would and besides the single Drake also wore accessories from the Tom Ford collection for a GQ magazine spread back in 2012. So then, I guess you could say that Tom and Drake both respect each other’s artistry.

Drakes lip shade for the Tom Ford Lips & Boys Collection will be a gorgeous deep Burgundy tint. As deep as his lyrics go at times we think this is the perfect shade to fit mister Champagnepapi! The new colors will retail for $52 and will be available come Black Friday.

Get the Beauty Look: Keke Palmer’s Pink Lip Color

Arianne SuggsUpdated on August 7, 2015August 7, 2015Leave a Comment

Keke Palmer truly looked pretty in pink as she dazzled in the bright, rosy lip color. It can be a little intimadating to go so bright when it comes to lipstick, but the result can be so beautiful! Want to make Palmer’s lip look all your own?

MAC Cosmetics Candy Yum Yum Lipstick looks fabulous on brown and deeper toned skin

If the spirit is willing but the wallet is saying not till your next check, NYX is a great option.

Their Matte Lipstick in Sweet Pink is simply gorgeous.

Do your lips tend to feel like they have passed through the Sahara when wearing lipstick?

You are not alone, try Iman’s Moisturizing Lipstick in Flirtatious to get your pink fix without all the dryness.

Beauty Tips: Remember that bright lip color will not hide ANYTHING. Don’t skip out on any prep work in order to make your lips look absolutely divine. If your lips look lumpy due to dead skin it will be quite noticeable. Therefore, buff those lips smooth before any tint application to prevent this dreaded and often feared beauty issue.
