Say Hello to Your Autumn/Winter 2010 Lipstick Wardrobe

Autumnn is so blah, dontcha think? Seriously, why can't Summer just extend itself a little longer so we don't have to bid adieu to our bronzers and welcome the wet weather. Though I shouldn't speak too soon, part of me does love the seasonal change as it means a whole new palette to play with. Taking inspiration from the A/W 2010 shows of Givenchy, Proenza Schouler, Missoni and Marni, I've hand-picked some of the hottest hues from recent releases to help you get through this winter weather stylishly . . .

(Pictured L-R): Revlon ColourBurst Lipstick in True Red ($23.95), so long-wearing and pigment-rich, the perfect red; L'Oréal Colour Riche Anti-Age Serum in Radiant Rose ($24.95), anti-ageing, plus a pop of pink, what's not to love?; Hourglass Adorn Lipstick in Fresco ($40), the perfect hit of espresso; Estée Lauder "Love Your Lips" Lipstick in Lush Rose ($44), a watermelon shade that suits everyone; Clinique High Impact Lip Colour in Go Fig ($36), neutrals were all over the place on the runways and this one will give you a brighter smile; Bourjois Sweet Kiss Naturel in Prune caresse ($23), this deep purple is the colour of the season and this one's made with 100 percent natural ingredients.

Stockists: Bourjois (1800 181 040), Estée Lauder (1800 061 326), L'Oréal (1300 659 259), Revlon (1800 025 488).
