Beauty copy can be a tangle of clichés as writers struggle to find fresh descriptions for minute changes. We almost wish the copy editors would give in and admit it! So when the ne plus ultra of beauty clichés, the cherry, came out in force this Fall the overbearing metaphor seemed almost charming. Its as if everyone agreed to say, eh, why force it? Everyone loves a deep cherry red lip so let's not struggle to call it anything but. Its the beauty copy equivalent of calling a spade a spade. And that refreshing honesty about the limits of descriptors somehow makes us that much covetous. Why strive to over market when we all know that we love it we suppose.

And clearly our community feels the same way as MAC's Cult of Cherries and Laura Mercier's Cherries Noir are getting rave reviews. Beauty 411 loves Cherries Noir for what we might call a sister cliché 40s Hollywood glamor. 15 Minute Beauty Fanatic goes right for the kisser with MAC's Cult of Cherry with a cherry lips entry. Temptalia too goes for cherryliscious lips. Makeup and Beauty Blog continues the trend Mercier's Cherries Noir cherry lips. And because it can't just be about the biggies, So Loverly found a Silken Naturals Cherry Crush lipgloss.

Vie Couture, M.I.S.S Crew, and Nessasary Makeup round up the coverage with general reviews.

As much as we love summer, the season comes with one of our greatest physical embarrassments, otherwise known as the sweaty upper lip. Try as we might to be leisurely, avoiding working up a sweat as you amble from home to work to play is nearly impossible some days. Despite our best efforts we still find a thin sheen works itself up more often than is comfortable congealing with our makeup to form a kind of gritty urban beauty nightmare. Clearly we aren't the only one in our community worried about these issues as Ma Petite Chou has been fielding questions about water proof eyeliner, SheFinds is focused on waterproof foundation and other stay cool and dry techniques, Makeup and Beauty Blog's face of the day includes Chanel's waterproof Oasis eyeshadow quad, and Sugarshock is fixating on Cargo's Melt Proof collection. Naturally beauty marketers are aware that summer makeup is a near obsession for women and provide us with ample opportunities to lay down cash for products that may or may not work. Our take? Sure we love a lot of the products featured but some days we simply want to give up and go totally bare.
