A lot can happen in a week, but according to Covergirl's new Lip Perfection lipstick, seven days is all it takes to pump up moisture levels and mend your dry, parched lips. The Silk Therapy Complex (a mix of of olive oil, white tea, silk protein, and shea, avocado, and aloe butters) gives lips a hit of instant hydration plus the lasting moisture of a balm, and the formula glides on easily, but has nice staying power. The 44 shades were designed by makeup master, Pat McGrath, and tested by McGrath on the spring 2011 runways: She used a bright red called Hot at Gucci, Mui Mui, Dior, and Viktor & Rolf, and a blend of wine-colored hues, Euphoria and Embrace, at Louis Vuitton.
Covergirl Lip Perfection Lipstick in Hot, $5.99, available at Walmart.
