Bridal Beauty Picks: Lips

Currently I’m loving the collection’s rich red Vesuvio, which is a colour Mad Men’s resident vixen Joan Holloway would definitely rock (even for her wedding day). Unlike other matte formulas I’ve tried, NARS’ are very hydrating and still go the distance. In a day, I only have to reapply once or twice to refresh colour. I’ll leave you with some advice from François himself on how to create a gorgeous full pout—wear bold lip colour, apply a dab of shimmering gloss to the centre of lips and use a lip liner to create a perfect lip outline (making sure to blend it well!). NARS Pure Matte is available beginning September 1 at The Bay. Tomorrow: nails.
