I get nostalgic for my grade school days more often than an adult should
admit. When I'm chugging coffee, I miss naptime; when I'm getting stir
crazy at my desk, I long for a schedule that includes three recesses a
day.
And when I find myself automatically shelving that wine lip color come
March so I can make room for the new pinks and reds, I start to think
about my past relationship with Crayola crayons.
What do my trusty old crayons have to do with spring makeup? Hear me
out. I took coloring more seriously than your average adolescent, so I
distinctly remember when my back-to-school shopping list finally
called for a 64-pack of crayons instead of the measly eight. When I
opened that box, gone were the days of lightly shading red to create a
knockoff pink. Suddenly I had "Salmon," "Scarlet," and "Blush" at my
fingertips. Needless to say, my art projects were never the same.
Flash forward to now: I've graduated to lip glosses and lipsticks, but
when it comes to seasonal variety, I'm falling behind by relying on that
metaphorical eight-pack of colors. Sure, there's nothing wrong with a
pink/red spring lipstick, but when I use those same-old colors year
after year, I can feel myself falling into a beauty slump, regardless of
the changing season.
Luckily, spring 2013's hottest new lip colors promise to be just the
push I need to break out of my spring makeup rut. These refreshing tones
are different than the usual pinks and reds, and they can instantly
breathe a new life into your entire look in just one swipe. Ready to
