Hollywood’s hottest who rock it best – Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz and Gwen Stefani – have all inspired us to go red!

This week’s DIY shows you how to get the perfect red lips. With a few items you probably already have in your makeup bag, this method guarantees the perfect long lasting, kissable lips.

The key to this look is not to over do it. With such bold lips, keep the rest of your makeup neutral and soft.

What You’ll need-

-Tissue
-Sugar Lip Scrub- to exfoliate your lips
-Concealer
-Lip Liner
-Red Lipstick (we used M.A.C’s Ruby Woo).

Step 1 – First, exfoliate your lips by applying the Sugar Lip Scrub for about 1 minute and removing with a damp towel. This will remove and dry skin and leave you lips soft and even.

Step 2 – Apply a light layer of concealer to your lips. This will give them a matte, dry finish and allow your color to adhere and remain the truest and brightest.

Step 3 – Carefully apply lip liner from the outside edge of your lips, being sure to give a little extra attention to the bow of your upper lip.

Step 4 – Apply red lipstick to your lips, filling in the corners of your mouth with the lip liner.

Step 5 – Blot!

But what about the men? Isn’t it time for them to have a high-end body product option too? Enter Pattern. It’s an all-natural body wash or lotion that leaves skin soft, supple and cleansed without stripping away natural oils.

Plus, the most interesting thing about this high-quality body line is the unique scents. Subtly masculine scents like Black Pepper, Citrus and Nutmeg are still unisex enough that you can lather up too without having too worry about smelling too manly! The Pattern Sage scent was even named Men’s Health June 2011 best bodywash and has a matching body lotion as well! Each scent has it’s own special quality – pH balanced, deep moisturizing, for the active dude, for face, body and hair – there’s one for everyone!
