The Summer Season: Korres #52 Orange Red Lipstick

Korres #52 Orange Red Lipstick ($18.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a semi-sheer, lightened orange with just a hint of red to it. I’m not sure why it’s named “Orange Red,” because it feels almost like an orange-coral. In case you were curious, it is pretty different from #45 Coral#52 Orange Red is like it’s bolder, brighter naughty older sister. It’s more pigmented, definitely more on the orange side. It has the same glossiness of all Mango Butter Lipsticks, though, and it’s just as moisturizing.

Is this the right orange 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.

Let’s be honest, the people at Korres just have all their colors mixed up. Like that purple lip gloss, which most definitely is not purple in any way. -_- I don’t know where they learned their rainbows… lol!

I love both this one and coral, but I’m not sure I need both. Which would you recommend for someone with very pigmented lips?

Or you could get all three for the price of one and a little more – http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P255523&searchString=korres%2052%20orange

Apparently, it’s part of a set at Sephora for $21!

But if you have pigmented lips, I would suggest this one over Coral.
