The Summer Season: Smashbox Flirty Lipstick
Smashbox Flirty Photo Finish Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a stunning shade of played down magenta pink. It’s a blue-based pink, but it’s not too cool toned, so both warmer and cooler skin tones can wear it. It has a slightly glossy finish with very minimal shimmer, but lips look fuller with the smooth, even coverage of the Photo Finish formula. It’s a creamy, nearly opaque color that’s moisturizing and wears for a solid four hours. Photo Finish is definitely a bit of an underrated lipstick formula!
Is this the right pink lipstick for you? Would you wear it?
The Summer Season is a series of posts featuring bright, vibrant shades of coral, orange, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for a summer of fun — that runs through July 2010.

Hi Christine, what MAC shade is this closest to? Also, do you apply lip conditioner before the lipstick?
Perhaps MAC Lustering, though it's a little pinker. Nope!

This will be mine. LOL I love this color.
This color is gorgeous.
OMG this color looks amazing on u ! what a beautiful pink ..
I can't find this on Nordstrom's site. Is this a new color that hasn't come out yet?
This is gorgeous! How do you think this would look on my NW45 skin tone?
Good :)

I really like the formula, but the shade might not be for me. Are there any orange or corals from the range?
Splendid!

Christine, If I am NC40/C4 in foundation, does that mean my skin is cool toned?
Warm :)
This looks beautiful on you! Love it.
Thank you!
I hate that so many shades of lipsticks looks so good on your lips. Makes me want to get them, but then, they don't work on my darker lips! But I like all your lipstick reviews. Keep up the good work!
LOL! Aww :(
