For the last two years spring/summer catwalks have been splashed with a standout beauty trend: dark, reddish orange lips were spied at DKNY and YSL, while matte neon shades featured heavily at Rag + Bone.
Kahlana Barfield, beauty director for InStyle, shows us how to work the trend in the video above.
"Typically when a woman wants to do a bold lip she'll do a red lip because it's classic, it's undeniably sexy, but there's something so fresh about orange for spring," says Barfield.

Finding a hue that suits your skin can be difficult. It can vary, but usually, the darker your skin the brighter orange shade you can go.
If you want a bold, more intense colour, swipe it straight from the tube, layer and blot in between.

Or if you're after a more subtle look, use one coat of lipstick and blot with tissue until it looks more like a lip stain.

Use lipliner to clean up lines. You can use either a nude or orange pencil.
