Lip service

“On a bad day, there is always lipstick,” Audrey Hepburn once said. And, in particular, red lipstick. With Valentine’s Day looming, we’ll be lacquering up — one with the ancient Sumerians but also Clara Bow, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe and all the movie goddesses of today, including Helen Mirren, Nicole Kidman, Priyanka Chopra, Kerry Washington, Kirsten Dunst, Kat Graham, Zoë Kravitz and Awkwafina, who rocked it on the Golden Globes’ red carpet. But why wait until V-Day to rouge that pucker?

Here are some great lipsticks that will have you seeing red in the best possible way, above from left: • Chanel Rouge Coco Ultra Hydrating Lip Colour in 444 Gabrielle. • Dior Limited Edition Jewel Lipstick Couture Color with Lip Care in Red Smile. • Giorgio Armani Lip Magnet Lipstick in Four Hundred.

Then display all your beauties on this fashionable lip tray by JR William. For more, visit neimanmarcus.com.
