MAC Ravishing Cremesheen Lipstick ($15), available now at MAC counters, stores and maccosmetics.com
When I slip into MAC’s creamy coral Ravishing Lipstick, winter season disappears, and I’m all of a sudden back at the Japanese Tea gardens in golden gate Park on a sunny spring day, viewing cherry blossom petals flutter in the breeze…
Ravishing is the kind of fresh and flirty full-coverage coral I like to start wearing around this time of year, best when the weather just barely starts to turn (freak storms notwithstanding), and the sun rises a little earlier in the day.
MAINOS
There’s something carefree, but still a little semi-formal, about the plush, velvety Cremesheen finish that feels so completely best to me.
What a MAC Ravishing swatch!
It’s many likely not the kind of coral you’d wear to getaway off the coast of Italy to frolic with Giovanni, the mysterious male model (and your summer fling) from Milan.
Nope. Ravishing is much more innocent than that — think spring dresses, sandals and lightweight button-down cardigans, and Earl Grey tea in the afternoon, served on fine china tea cups with tiny cucumber sandwiches.

Ah…
I hope you give it a try this spring, and if you do, I think Ravishing looks ravishing with classic cat liner or shimmery jade green eye shadow.
Vai niin! and golds and teals.
MAINOS
And when summer rolls around, top it with your favorite shimmery coral gloss to turn up the heat.
Ystävällinen naapuruston charmin addict,
