1. Best lipstick shades for spring and summer

The sun is out shining and making everything look bright and yellow, and this warmth should reflect in your makeup too. From warm reds to fiery oranges, the best lipstick colours for these two seasons all have a warm undertone. Keep all eyes on your lips by coating them with bright pops of colour that stand out. Warm reds, oranges, and pink lipstick shades will always be in trend during summers and springs and the best part about these colours is that they are universally appealing and flatter all different skin tones.

The skies outside are dark, dull, and gloomy. So why not brighten up your day with a striking dash of colour on your lips? The dark monsoon clouds won’t dampen your spirits when you step out with a bright lipstick shade. But remember, regardless of the shade, the best lipstick colour is one that stays in place even if you get caught up in the pouring rain. The last thing you need is a smudged lipstick running down your face. Look for a long-wearing waterproof and transfer-proof matte lipstick that will not budge even if you are soaking wet.

Autumn is all about yummy warm drinks and decadent desserts, so it comes as no surprise that the lipstick shades in trend for autumn usually have warm undertones or rich colours reminiscent of spices and cranberry sauces.
