Trend Alert: Pale Pink Lips at the 2008 ESPY Awards

BellaSugar — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 07:00:11 PDT

Can you guess what these pretty ladies at the 2008 ESPY Awards all have in common? Although they aren't the most famous faces we're used to seeing on BellaSugar, each of them has starred in a reality TV show on E!

Kourtney Kardashian's step-dad is Olympian Bruce Jenner, Brittny Gastineau practically has sports in her blood (her estranged father is former NFL player Mark Gastineau) and Kendra Wilkinson is a self-proclaimed sports junkie. For all of these reasons and more, they've come to the ESPYs and they all arrived with pale pink lips.

This sex-kitten pale pink lip trend has been just as popular as the nude lip for nearly half a decade. We've seen it looking super glossy, chalky and opaque and semi-sheer (like in the photos above). What's your favorite pale pink lip product?

Beauty Spring Peek: Raspberry Pink Lips

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 16:25:04 PST

Rumor has it raspberry pink lips are going to be hotter than ever for Spring. Just take a look at this cute pink pucker from the 3.1 Phillip Lim show. I am really digging some of the gorgeous new raspberry colored lip glosses. Want to know what else is brewing for Spring? Be sure to check out my other Spring Peeks.

To view my favorite raspberry pink lip glosses,

This vibrant hot pink color is hot off the presses! Raspberry Syrup Pop Gloss 436 by Givenchy, $22.50 is a graffiti inspired color for Spring. It is an exceptionally bright shade in the tube, but it goes on sheer and light. This new color will join the Pop Gloss collection that is set for release in select Saks.com and Sephora.com stores over the next two weeks.

Guerlain KissKiss Laque in Fabulous Rose, $26, is considered a lipstick because of its thorough coverage, yet it has the shine of a gloss and is packaged just like a gloss. It smells delicious (infused with vanilla, red fruits and violet) and it looks uber sophisticated both in the tube and on your lips. This color is vivid, long lasting and provides incredible shine. Oh...and I love the fabulous name!

Trish McEvoy Highlights Lipgloss in Rose, $22, is an old time favorite of mine. It's not too sticky and can be worn alone or over a lipstick for more opaque color. This gloss leaves your lips feeling smooth and looking shiny.

What We're Sweet On: The Gloss That Looks Good on Everyone

Jaime Richards — Mon, 21 May 2012 10:32:00 PDT

Some lip glosses are so waxy, your lips feel as if they're suffocating, while others are so shiny, they practically blind the person standing next to you. Such is not the case with Intelligent Nutrients' Lip Delivery Antioxidant Gloss in Pink Hibiscus ($24). Free of synthetic waxes and oils (and fragrance and colorants), the subtly tinted gloss lends just a hint of sheen to the lips. And the touch-of-pink hue is the perfect shade to reach for when you want a more minimalistic makeup look - or when you want low-key lips to complement an intensely heavy smoky eye.

Certified organic, Lip Delivery is loaded with antioxidant-rich cranberries, purple corn, and blueberries. Beeswax, carnauba wax, and cocoa butter ingredients moisturize, while shea butter lends a bit of natural protection from the sun's UV rays. A built-in brush makes application all the more smooth, but perhaps the biggest treat is its sweet and tart flavor, a blend of caramel, vanilla, raspberry, agave, and coconut. You'll keep going back to this smooth operator again and again.

Who Had the Prettiest Petal-Pink Lipstick This Week?

Jaime Richards — Sat, 12 May 2012 06:05:00 PDT

The bold lipstick trend may be rampant this season, but there's still plenty of room for the classics. Read: petal-pink lip looks - and this week we saw our fair share of them. Sanaa Lathan paired her subtly glossy version with a metallic eye, while Nikki Reed went for a shimmery grapefruit hue with a hint of champagne shadow. Michelle Trachtenberg, on the other hand, accentuated her flawless skin with an opaque tone on the lips and a perfectly purple smoky eye. All three look gorgeous in their makeup choices, but which one was prettiest in her petal-pink palette?

Your Go-To Guide For Wearing a Nude Lip Look

Jaime Richards — Thu, 10 May 2012 10:40:00 PDT

Struggling to find a nude lipstick shade that matches your skin tone? The trick to wearing a neutral hue is to actually think subtle touches of color in lieu of taking the term "nude" literally. From beige to mocha to sheer washes of pink, a nude-toned lip can be quite flattering, especially when coupled with a smoky eye. Take Rihanna, for instance, who opted for a pretty coffee-colored lipstick paired with dark liner and soft shadow at the 2012 Met Gala. Find out a few tips for going nude, sans the chalky effects, when you read more.
