    Peachy nude pout

    21/01/2012 : It's true that Angelina Jolie's pillar box-coloured pout that just matched the fold on her cream satin Atelier Versace gown and her clutch at the Golden Globes could make any girl want to trash all other lip colours in their make-up bag. With the best lips in Hollywood, Miss Jolie surely could intimidate even the "red" colour on the carpet once she chooses to paint her pout in scarlet. Sadly, those without the advantage of full lips may not be bought by the boldness of the colour. And no, red isn't the only shade that could make your lips alluring. Red gives us the tantalising hot sensuality, but at times, you just can't really resist the ice queen glamour of the barely there make-up look.
