For those looking to be adventurous in the warmer weather, color reigns supreme, and nothing is off the table when it comes to your lip product’s finish.

Fuchsia Tones
Makeup artist Allie Smith sees a shift toward purple-toned lippies, predicting that fuchsia-based reds will be a trend. She says the shade is universally appealing, and fuchsia-toned hues will pop with any outfit — even brighter ones.

Peach Shades.

Warm, peach shades are often cited as must-haves in any collection, and that’s why Dominique Cosmetics owner and content creator Christen Dominique predicts they’ll make a return this season. “Warm, peachy nudes are always such a hit in the summertime,” says Dominique, whose favorite shade is her own Cream Matte Liquid Lipstick in Nude Kiss. “It pairs well with a variety of complexions, and you can glam it up or play it down.”For those looking to try the trend, neutrals are often recommended with bolder eye looks, making it a perfect pairing with graphic liner or neon hues. But for those who want to keep things simple, the shade lends itself to a more understated look, too.

Browns
“Brown lipsticks and brown lip glosses will be on the rise,” makeup artists have remarked.Balms
Makeup artist and Cherie partner Katey Denno, whose clients include Beanie Feldstein and Amanda Seyfried, predicts a more natural trend in summer 2020, with a move away from transferrable, potentially sticky products that could result in heat meltdowns. “Summer 2020 is all about sheer, not gooey lip balms in a stick,” she says.

Bold Red.

Artist Couture owner Angel Merino sees bold reds — a perennial favorite — among summer 2020’s top trends, explaining that the color is “sexy” and “passionate,” which plays into its popularity. “It’s the perfect way to dress up any makeup look with minimal effort,” he says. “It also screams baecation even if you’re just at home.”
