As the weather gets warmer, lips usually get bolder. This spring is no exception. While flaring red and dark mattes remain almost seasonless compulsions, new eccentric hues are blooming up. Here are the audacious lipstick colors that you need to try right now.
Orange
This trend commenced with Versus’ spring 2017 show, where models strutted in electric orange lips. Then, Jason Wu and Mary Katrantzou followed – and so the rest of the fashion world. A warm hue, orange is easy to combine with both dark, severe shades as well as light, bright colors – a trait that makes an ideal match for almost any look.

Teal
Teal is totally trending – even on your lips. While it gives a cool, mind-your-business vibe, this stern effect could be easily mitigated with a smart assemble in warm colors like orange and yellow. Although for the runway, makeup gurus often mix and blend lipsticks to create appealing teal variations, top brands do offer their own interpretations.
Try: NYX Wicked Lippies Scandalous WIL02, which gives teal a slight silver shimmer.
Magenta
While classic red is a mainstay, magenta is heating up for the spring and summer months. There is a multitude of shades and textures to choose from – from liquid cherry notes to matte orchid tones. It is a playful, cheerful color that certainly matches the spirit of the hot time of year.
Try: MAC Punk Couture, Deep Blackened grape, which is a long-lasting creamy lipstick.
Glitter
Whatever your favorite lipstick color, give it an edge with a splash of glitter. This spring anything works – from full-blown disco-ball variations to coy hints of shimmer. Depending on the aesthetic you aim for, you could either glitter up an outlandish sci-fi look or a sensual feminine style.
Try: Lancôme Le Metallique Lipstick in various glittering shades.
