Today's pick comes from Racked National associate editor Kenzie Bryant.

August is my makeover month, probably because that ohmergerd-the-first-day-of-school-is-impending feeling has been etched into my internal clock. But rather than dyeing my hair, or chopping my hair off, or doing anything really with my hair, I'm swiping on some bright lipstick a few days a week. The closest to perfection in terms of hydration, staying power, and color fullness is Shiseido. (I like Dragon because it's classic and bright). Instant transformation. Summer reset complete.
