Pale, glossy lips look full and healthy. They are flattering for most women, night or day, and balance the effect when you wear dramatic eye makeup.

• Cover your natural lip color using a little foundation in a slightly darker shade- the one you wear when you have a tan is ideal.
• Apply moisturizing lip balm on top of the foundation – if you apply it first, the oils will prevent the foundation from sinking in properly.
• Either apply a little clear gloss on top of the balm, or choose a natural beige, pink, or taupe lipstick with a creamy texture- lips should be pumped with a slightly shine, but not a mirror glass.
• Layer colored gloss over sheer brown or beige lipstick for a modern, edgy depth of color.
