Looking at the different beauty trends we have right now, we’ve got a case of the extremes. Moschino and Max Mara are opting for that nude, perfect skin look while Timo Weiland and Houghton are vouching for the dark, vixen lips. In other words, it’s a cause for a dilemma when it’s our turn to choose.
So we turned to the #TeamPreenPH girls for some help, and they made a good case for both choices. In the end, it’s really how you’ll incorporate it with your personal style. Let’s take a look how they did it.
Chanel Olive Thomas
@chanelolivethomas
For her weekend #selfie, Chanel opted to complement her rosy cheeks with a shiny, well-defined lip. If this also suits your preference, maybe you can reach for the Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Reb 01 (P399) from their Rebel Bouquet line. And go ahead, take a #selfie, too!

Kiana Valenciano
@kianavee
Kiana bumped into Antonio Banderas over the weekend in London, as you do. While everyone was looking at the Hollywood star, we noticed how Kiana’s got the perfect “no makeup” makeup look. Natural-looking lips make for a good smile whether or not you’re with your on-screen hero, so pick up a tube of the Clinique Chubby Stick in Heaping Hazelnut (P1,200) to keep those puckers moisturized with a shade that compliments your natural skin tone.

Rhian Ramos
@whianwamos
The actress was twinning with Glaiza De Castro this past week with black, sleeveless tops and wine red lipstick. If you want to join in the fun, the L’Oreal Collection Star Lipstick in Pure Garnet (P500) is good for that matte red lip that can survive long nights.

Lauren Young
@lo_young
In her #throwback post, Lauren Young recounted a time off-set where she blew the camera a kiss with full, fleshy lips. Make Up Forever Aqua Rouge in 3 (P1,550) is a liquid lipstick that blends into the lips easily to enhance its fullness so you can have luscious lips without needing to pucker up. (But we won’t judge you if you still want to.)

Martine Cajucom
@ilovemartine
This list wouldn’t be complete without Martine and those lips of hers. Trying out a twist on the school girl look, Martin pairs dorky glasses with an orange-red lip so as to not overpower her whole face. For a shade that’s similar to it, we recommend MAC Lipstick in Chili (P1,350) for that red lip you can wear day or night.
MAC. Available at Rustan’s The Beauty Source, Gloriettaa 4, SM Makati and SM Megamll. For more information, visit their website.
Kim Jones-Rosales
@kimcamjones
If you don’t want to have a completely nude lip, you can opt for one with a faint pinkish undertone. Kim Jones sure rocked it with her shoot with photographer Jake Rosenburg. For a similar pout, Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Berry Couture (P 525) is an almost pink, almost nude shade that’s a good choice when you can’t decide what shade you really want.
