It’s still hot out there, but we’re already thinking fall! To help get in the mood, we’re sharing the pucker picks that are getting us ready for the shift in seasons

Alexis:
I’m always on the hunt for a wearable matte lip color, and this new Opaque Rouge liquid lipstick from Hourglass in a rich coral hue called Muse is just what I’ve always wanted. It applies like a gloss (with sponge applicator) and then dries within a minute to a zero-sheen finish. It’s a long-wearing formula, too, and lasts for nearly a full day of work. Also, make sure lips are bare beforehand as putting a gloss or balm underneath is a no-no (it makes the liquid lipstick clump). Regardless, this high-impact lip color stain is perfect for a date or night out as it lasts for hours without need for a touch-up! $28

Kathryn:
I am seriously obsessing over a deep, plummy lip right now. In my humble opinion, this combo of Dior Addict Lipstick in Perfecto with a highlighting swipe of Givenchy Gelée D’Interdit Gloss Balm in Acoustic Wild Rose in the center of my lips is the perfect way to accomplish this au courant look in a very un-goth-y—and totally glam—way. Hydration is super important to me always, and this lipstick stands up to my high standards with the help of jojoba seed oil and 25 percent less wax than other lipsticks, meaning it builds gradually with the smoothest texture ever. I’m calling this my velvety vamp look! Dior, $30; Givenchy, $27.50
