Oscars 2015 - Statement or Natural Lip?

The Oscars Red Carpet was it's usual dazzlingly self, with some of the most talented and gorgeous starlets strutting their stuff in haute couture, bling and immaculate makeup.

The internet is awash with Oscars trends, from high collared gowns to statement necklaces.  From centre parts to the colour blush making a comeback.  Makeup wise, there wasn't one dominant trend, but an even split between two classics.

Yes it was the battle of the lips - statement vs naturals.

 
 

In the statement corner we have wine hues, just bitten berries and muted reds.  In the natural corner we have barely-there pinks and perfect nudes.  Whatever lip look these gorgeous ladies were rocking, they kept their eye makeup relatively simple - there were no heavy eye looks, more classic winged eyeliner a la Angelina or Margot or brown palettes were the flavour of the night.  The gowns were the showstoppers - the makeup seemed to be the supporting act.

But which trend will you be following on your next big night out?

Which Oscar's lip trend do you like best?

The natural look lets your personal beauty and gown show up the best.

I'm liking the bold lippy look at the moment

I'm all for a statement lip ifor it's with the right dress and hair!

I think it depends on the dress they wear. Both a gorgeous red statement lip and a glamorous dress look gorgeous. You can't really compare the two and say one screams Hollywood glamor more than the other.

Do you want to be seen and have the wow factor, go loud and proud.

I love the look of the bright bold statement colours. Personally though, I am definitely more of a nudes girl

Love the nude look but have to say for such a gorgeous amazing night you gotta wear bright lipstick.

Love statement lips - otherwise what's the point in wearing lipstick?

25th February, 2015

Loud and proud is for me. The louder, the prouder :) I can see these ladies look great with natural lips but I don't think it would be for me.

6 months ago i would say natural lip, now i would say bold is best! :)

24th February, 2015

Has to be the natural lip, i do occasionally Rock a pop of colour but usually tend to stick to natural pinks and nudes :)

24th February, 2015

I love both but personally feel that it depends on the outfit as to what lippy you wear

24th February, 2015

If you can't be OTT glam at the OSCARS...when can you!?

24th February, 2015

Always in my nights out I go for statement lip. I am in love with the plums lately.

24th February, 2015

I think the lippie adds colour and sophistication, so loud and proud for me :)
