For manifesting your inner A-Lister status

Ifthere’s one thing we can count on whenever we chance upon a photo of Heart Evangelista, it’s this: she will always exude a sense of timeless class no matter where she is or what she’s wearing. Clothes, hairstyles, makeup — all of it looks luxurious if it’s on her.

Going big on luxury beauty isn’t everybody’s cup of tea. However, you’re going to have just one thing designer in your makeup kit, make it a luxury lipstick. Trust us: there’s nothing more powerful than pulling up to a mirror on a night out, reaching into your purse, and retouching your look with a lipstick packaged in a luxuriously lacquered metal casing that just feels like extravagance weighing in your hands.

So, if you’re ready to look like luxury in lippie shades Heart Evangelista herself approves of, here are some lipsticks you can try to match her elegant vibe.

Cute in Coral

The Los Angeles sun may be beaming, but there’s nothing shining brighter in this photo than Heart and her flirty coral outfit — coordinated even down to her nails. As a shade that doesn’t shy away from any skin tone, this hybrid of orange, red, and pink can look great on absolutely anyone, most especially under the summer sun. Reach for coral if you’re looking to brighten up your look and add sun-kissed femininity to your entire ensemble.

This Gucci A levres Satin Lip Colour in Mae Coral is a great luxury lipstick for Heart’s spritely look. Rich in pigment that delivers intense color sans the heavy feeling, you can tell that Gucci came to deliver with this formula. Thin out the pigment by blending in a little at a time with your fingers to achieve the brightness you prefer or swipe it directly on your lips for a brilliantly bright, opaque hue.

Glossed Up

While Heart is no stranger to stronger, editorial makeup looks, we often see her sporting simpler, more natural looks that show off her gorgeous natural features. For days where you want to keep it lowkey yet sophisticated, a glossy MLBB as seen on Heart will do you wonders. Match it with an equally dewy, natural makeup look for a healthy, youthful glow.

The Gucci Rouge De Beaute Brillant Glow & Care Lip Colour in Emmy Petal is a gorgeous peachy pink that matches with virtually anything, from heavier eyeshadow look to barely-there makeup. The best part? It not only delivers a lovely sheen of glowing color but keeps your lips hydrated at the same time.

Neutral Nudes

Every lipstick collection needs at least one nude shade — that’s a fact. Perfect for mellowing out louder eyeshadow looks or pulling together monochromatic neutral looks, a good nude lippie is a must for any makeup lover for its transformative powers. Complement your deep, cheeky flush like Heart with a neutral nude shade — overlining optional but encouraged.

The Gucci Rouge A Levres Satin Lip Colour in Linda Beige is an excellent middle-ground for pinky nudes and tan nudes, making them all the more versatile to wear. With its long-wearing formulation and moisturizing ingredients, you wouldn’t have to worry about smudges, budges, or discomfort throughout the day.
