Our style suggestion: pair an orange-red lip like Jessica Lowndes’ with a blue top, then wait for the compliments to roll in. Here’s how to get the look:

1. Apply foundation and a teeny bit of bronzer to your cheeks.

2. Use plenty of mascara but keep the rest of your eye makeup simple, remember, you want the focus on your lips.

3. Use an orange-red lip liner to line your lips and fill them in.

4. Follow up with a matching lipstick, applied either with a lip brush or your finger for more of a stained look. One to try: MAC Lipstick in Lady Danger, $14.50.
