Bright Lips, Big City

With fashion tapping into eighties trends — distressed denim, sharp shoulders, and boxy blazers — Yves Saint Laurent Beauté decided to keep the nostalgia going with its new Trésor D’Afrique 5 Colour Palette for the Lips. The limited-edition compact contains three bright lipstick shades (pearly pink, fuchsia, and orange) and two glosses (plum and a delicate, shimmery pink). Use the pinks for a soft, natural lip; go crazy glam with the fuchsia or orange. Or keep it pretty and simple with the plum gloss. The color and texture combinations are endless and very Jem appropriate.
