Blushing Lips

My lips, two blushing pilgrims ready stand..."

Barbara Grufferman, in her must-have manual The Best of Everything After 50, advises that a light pinky-peach color is best for every day at this age. Jemma Kidd's Ultimate Lipstick Duo in Juliet fills the bill perfectly. You can use just the balm for daytime, or use it as a base to moisten and condition lips before adding color. Like Shakespeare's meanings, the sheer hue can be deepened when used on its own and layered.

About $19 at Bloomingdale's, SpaceNK, or online.

Another pastime to play with: Kidd's site has a Hall-of-Fame game where you can see the makeup application for classic stars like Grace Kelly and Greta Garbo.
