I never in my life thought I would wear orange lipstick. When I bought my first one it looked too bright and, well, orange. Later I started to wear that one a lot and after a while it wasn't bright enough. Next logical step (logical in makeup world, of course) was to find more orange shades I will like. Now I am a firm believer in rocking orange lips. Maybe you are thinking ''should really I wear orange lips'' and my answer will definitely be yes! If you choose a right shade it can do wonders for the whole look. Weather you are taking a plunge and trying orange lipsticks for the first time or just looking for a new orange shade to try, here are some good options.


Bright orange For those who are skipping the adjustment period and going straight to the boldest of oranges, bright orange lipsticks are the best choice. I got this one most recently and I love the shade. It's NYX Matte lipstick in Indie Flick. This colour is amazing! If it was any brighter it would be fluorescent, which I'm trying to avoid in lipsticks, I think it's too much for everyday. Texture is also great, although you do need two layers to even out the colour.

Light orange The most sensible option and transit colour between bright and deep orange. Perfect colour for bright eye looks. Shade I like the most in light orange category is Rimmel Lasting finish matte by Kate Moss lipstick in 109. This lipstick can be a bit dry, nothing a layer of lip balm can't handle.

Deep orange Finally, the color that got me into orange lips, Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick in 225 Rosewine. The creamiest of the bunch, and surely the most subtle shade in this post. It's very pigmented as well. If you are starting out with orange lipsticks I suggest trying a deep orange shade first. It is the most natural choice and the shade that's the easiest to wear.

Do you wear orange lipsticks, what are your favourite shades?




Ranije nikada ne bih pomislila da ću ikada u životu nositi narandžasti karmin. Kada sam kupila prvi karmin u toj boji izgledao je previše drečavo i, pa, narandžasto. Kasnije sam počela dosta da ga nosim i posle nekog vremena nije bio dovoljno intenzivan. Sledeći logičan korak (logičan u svetu šminke naravno) je bio da pronađem još narandžastih nijansi koje će mi se svideti. Sada čvrsto verujem u usne narandžaste boje. Možda mislite ''da li bi stvarno trebalo da nosim narandžasti karmin'' i moj odgovor je svakako da! Ako izaberete pravu nijansu može čuda da učini za ceo izgled. Bilo da zalazite u nepoznato i probate narandžaste karmine po prvi put ili samo tražite nove nijanse ove boje, evo ih neke dobre opcije.


Intenzivno narandžasta Za one koji preskaču period prilagođavanja i odmah žele da probaju najintenzivniju od svih nijansi narandžaste, drečavo narandžasti karimini su najbolji izbor. Ja sam ovaj kupila skoro i svidja mi se nijansa. To je NYX Matte karmin u boji Indie Flick. Ova boja je neverovatna! Da je malo intenzivnija bila bi fluorescentna, što se trudim da izbegavam kod karminima, smatram da je previše za svaki dan. Tekstura je takođe sjajna, mada su potrebna dva sloja da bi se boja izjednačila.

Nežno narandžasta Najrazumniji izbor i prelazna boja između intenzivne i tamno narandžaste. Boja koja savršeno ide uz smele kombinacije na očima. Nijansa koja mi se najviše dopada u ovoj kategoriji je Rimmel Lasting finish matte by Kate Moss karmin u boji 109. Ovaj karmin može da bude malo suvlji, ništa što sloj labela ne može da sredi. 

Tamno narandžasta Konačno, boja koja me je uvela u svet narandžastih usana, Revlon Super Lustrous karmin u nijansi 225 Rosewine. Najkremastija od svih izabranih i zasigurno najdiskretnija nijansa u ovom postu. Uz to je i jako pigmentovana. Ako tek počinjete sa narandžastim karminima moj savet je da prvo probate tamno narandžastu nijansu. To je najprirodniji izbor i boja koja se najlakše nosi.

Da li nosite narandžasti karmin, koje su vam omiljene nijanse?
