Looking much the same as you’ve just been for a snog behind the bike sheds is this mature’s lip look. As seen on the Rosie Assoulin catwalk a mussed-up red lip ousted its masterpiece counterpart. It’s the perfect look for those lacking in hand-eye co-ordination and/or the vigour to keep reapplying after every clandestine chocolate digestive. Unpretentiously dab your favourite shade of scarlet on to the centre of your lips and buff outward using a lip brush so that the edges smudge over the lip straighten, creating a diffused effect.
