A Look at the Best Orange Shimmer Lipsticks of 2011

Sarah Afshar
Orange shimmer lipsticks allow you to enjoy the look of orange lips without the dramatic appearance of orange lips. If you are searching for a pigmented orange lipstick shade that is more subtle, rather than striking, you should definitely have an orange shimmer lipstick in your beauty stash. There are numerous orange shimmer lipsticks in the beauty market today, however; there are only a few that remain to be the best. I have decided to take a lot at the best orange shimmer lipsticks of 2011.

One thing that I have discovered is that Mac Cosmetics rarely fail to disappoint, especially when it comes to their lip products. I have used Mac Cosmetics for many years, as I still continue to use them. One of my favorite orange frost lipsticks is definitely Mac Cosmetics lipstick in "CB 96". CB 96 is a bright pink orange pearl. If you know anything about what makes a quality, high-end lipstick, you will know that if a lipstick is fairly pigmented, hydrating, as well as, long-lasting and provides you with benefits, you will have your product. You can purchase Mac Cosmetics lipstick for $14.50 at the official website or your nearest Mac counter. This lipstick shade looks fantastic on everyone, I swear.

Orange shimmer lipsticks are nice because if you are looking for an orange lipstick, but you don't want your lips to look relatively dramatic and intense, you can appreciate them for what they are. I have to admit, I always appreciate Guerlain for not only their fine packaging in the makeup industry, but the fact that they deliver some of the best makeup products in the world today. Orange shimmer lipsticks are more of rarity, than a popularity, but there are still many that exist. In fact, one of my favorites is definitely Guerlain Kiss Kiss Strass lipstick in "Orange Sequin 342" which is a burnt orange shimmer. You can purchase this fantastic addition to Guerlain at Sephora or your nearest Guerlain retailer for $31. Guerlain never stops working.

If you have ever noticed, most makeup artists that turn into beauty moguls know what most women want. I have to admit, when I first discovered Bobbi Brown, I was a bit skeptical, until I tried her products. She truly knows what women want, making her a beauty icon. One of the best orange shimmer lipsticks of 2011 is definitely Bobbi Brown lipstick in "Orange". Orange is a vibrant semi-matte orange. The shimmer is subtle, but reasonably visible. Bobbi Brown lip products tend to be very moisturizing, yet pigmented and long-lasting. You can purchase this fine lipstick for $22 at Sephora or your nearest Bobbi Brown counter.

When I visited Sephora at the Tyson's Corner Mall in McLean, VA I had the opportunity to discover one of the most beautiful orange shimmer lipsticks I have ever seen. That beautiful lipstick is Dior Rouge Dior Lip Color in "Rare Amber 526" which is a muted reddish orange shimmer. Although the red is visible, the lipstick is more orange than it is red. If you are looking for a stunning orange shimmer, you are destined to love this one. For just $30, you can own this lipstick today. Although this is not fully orange, it is still one of the best orange shimmer lipsticks of 2011.

I have to admit, Make Up For Ever (commonly known as MUFE) rarely fails to disappoint me. Most recently I discovered, when visiting Sephora at Boise, ID that you can find numerous products that are considered uncommon finds within this terrific makeup line. One of those uncommon finds is definitely orange shimmer lipstick. One of the greatest orange shimmer lipsticks is definitely Make Up For Ever lipstick in "Golden Orange 406" which is a transparent, yet very light sheer orange shimmer. For just $19, you can purchase Make Up For Ever's lipstick at Sephora or your nearest Make Up For Ever retailer. I love Make Up For Ever!

Sometimes finding an amazing product can get pricey to the vast majority of status quo. If you are looking to save money, you will definitely appreciate NYX cosmetics. One of the greatest orange shimmer lipsticks of 2011 is definitely NYX lipstick in "Orange Soda". Orange Soda is a pale orange shimmer. For only $4, you can own Orange Soda right now. If you are looking to save money, but also use a product that is highly effective, I truly recommend choosing NYX. You just cannot go wrong.

I always find myself searching for makeup products that others mention they want, but have a hard time finding. One of those makeup products that I have had the opportunity to encounter is definitely Kat Von D Painted Love lipstick in "Coral Castle" which is a coral orange shimmer. Kat Von D has created a lot of dramatic products, however; this orange shimmer lipstick is one of her most faint shades. Kat Von D Painted Love lipstick is just $18 and is available at Sephora. Kat Von D definitely has more going for her than tattoos.

Although orange lipsticks are not for everyone, there are always orange shimmer lipsticks in the beauty world that work for just about every woman around. You don't have to be spontaneous wearing an orange frost lipstick, just wear it.
