Pink lipstick is having a moment in mid November. Who would have thunk it?

A usual beauty staple come spring, seeing shades of bubble gum, petal and rhodendrum surface on a-listers like Jessica Alba, Blake Lively and Kate Beckinsale a mere week before it's officially winter is, well, refreshing.

Hats off to these gals for breaking the beauty mold (Red or dark lips for winter, pink or coral lips for spring. Rinse, repeat, yawn.) -- with a lipstick shade that's as pretty as it is unexpected.

Beauty Basics: Stars in Pink Lipstick

The British stunner looked icy hot at the MOCA New 30th Anniversary Gala on November 14, 2009 in Los Angeles, in a sparkly shade of pale pink lipstick. Normally reserved for warmer months, and, well, the 1960s, hats off to Beckinsale for this daring pout pick. Not to mention that the glossy shade looks gorgeous with her gray smoky eyes.

Actress Blake Lively looked fresh and gleaming at the Cinema Society screening of 'The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee' on November 15, 2009 in New York City. The glossy, petal pink shade makes the gossip girl a total glossip girl.

Jessica Alba opted for a cool shade of pinky purple for the MOCA New 30th Anniversary Gala on November 14, 2009 in Los Angeles. The glossy shade looks pretty with her shiny white eye shadow and deep side part, creating a young, fresh spin on a classic look.

At the 2009 Emmy Awards, Drew Barrymore's rich pink lip was the perfect accessory to her blush colored dress. It added just the right pop of color.

Gwen Stefani is always in tune with her look. At the Donate Life Concert Series she looked as confident (and comfortable) as ever wearing a bold fuchsia lip.

At the 5th Annual Pink Party, Garcelle Beauvais glowed in varying shades of pink-from her lids to her lips.

Rachel McAdams was a breath of fresh air at Spring 2010 Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Her look was stylishly simple: black tee, tousled bun and lips with a punch of color.

At The City season two premiere, Whitney Port flawlessly pulled off bright pink lips.

If there were an award for best lips at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards, Leighton Meester would have won by a landslide. The berry pink shade not only complemented her skin tone, but also added an incredible fullness.

At the 2009 Academy of Country Music Awards, Julianne Hough's mod pink lips made her blue eyes take center stage.

Actually, red looks better, classier. I hat anything pink. Pink can make a beautiful girl look so ugly.

Kate is so pretty. Soft and sultry

KATE IS SO PRETTY, it doesn't matter what she is or isn't wearing, a magazine, [I CAN"T REMEMBER THE NAME} just named her the SEXIST WOMAN IN THE WORLD, she definitely makes the top of my list

Pink lipstick seems to have its limits-----based on nationality,ethnic and that look---it just does not work for many people -- it can clash or stand out freakier than black lipstick---------so you can wear that pink lipstock well --A gramdma finds it just to loud
