Coral lipstick is tres tricky. If it’s too pale, it can make teeth look
yellow, and if it’s not pared with proper accoutrements (i.e. flawless
skin, simply lined eyes), it can easily age a woman by a few decades.
But we’re totally digging the limited edition shade Chris & Tell from
Lancome and here’s why: First of all, designer Chris Benz created it to
go with his spring 2010 collection, and it does indeed pair perfectly
with his khaki army jackets and vibrant polka dot prints. Second, though
it’s thankfully not neon, this particular coral has a Day-Glo quality to
it; as a result, it comes off as a spirited, modern and youthful. The
bad news? It’s completely sold out—but we did manage to locate an
unopened tube for auction on eBay!Photo: WWD
