For those of you who were sad to see neon lipstick make an exit back in the 1980s, welcome to 2013! It's been hot on the lips of every major catwalk this season. Such a vibrant lip color can be pretty difficult to pull off, but if you’re bold enough to take the plunge, here are a few things to keep in mind:
1. Keep it simple! With such a bright lip color, you’ll want to make sure you go easy on the eye makeup, especially if you’re planning on wearing this as a casual, daytime look....
2.Along the same lines, be sure not to overdo it with the blush. If you do wear blush, try selecting a nude color...

3.Though of course there is no “rule” saying you can’t wear bold lipstick during the daytime, if you’re having doubts, you may want to save this look for night, especially if you’ve gone with a brighter fuchsia shade...
4.Hot pink lipstick is also a great alternative for those nights when you want something bold and daring but don’t want bright red lips – it’s also a perfect spring and summer alternative to a classic red lip...
5.Get your undertones right. When choosing a lipstick, you’ll want to select one with blue undertones if you have cooler skin, and if you have warm undertones, then you’re better suited for something more orange or red-based...
6.Many people will tell you that fair-skinned folk can’t pull off bright pink shades, but this obviously isn’t true (see Emma Stone – flawless!)... If you want to try this look, then try it – you only live once! If it’s something that you want to wear and you like how it looks, don’t worry about whether or not someone else thinks it looks good on you...
7.Wearing such a dramatic, lip color isn’t something that everyone should attempt... Make sure you have the confidence to pull it off, and if you’re not comfortable wearing it...
8.If you’re looking to switch up your beauty routine and get out of your comfort zone a hot pink shade is a great idea.... Don’t be afraid to experiment with your look!
9. Test it out before you buy. It’s always a good idea to actually try lipsticks before you buy them, since buying them blind is a bit of a gamble – you can never be 100% sure the color will suit you...!
10.It’s best to test the color in natural light instead of relying on department store lighting. Ask for a sample, or have a sales associate test it out on your lips so you can view it later.
Be BRAVE
