For years, the Costa da Caparica—a long stretch of Atlantic beach just across the Tagus River from Lisbon—was something of an afterthought; Lisboetas saw it merely as a low-rent suburb. But about a decade ago, that started changing, when the surfers caught the waves and a group of bohemian, mostly international scene-makers caught onto the region’s potential.

I often recall the deep cherry lip tint I wore on my first night in Paris. My dear Parisian friend complimented me, borrowed it, and planted a kiss on my cheek. Plenty of smiles came my way on the Métro, thanks to her lipstick stain on my face. On a cloudy day in Berlin, I applied a tinted suede shade of pink, kissed a cozy café’s free postcard, and sent it to my friend back home in NYC. In Manhattan's West Village, one friendly (and perhaps tipsy) stranger asked if she could borrow my NARS Hot Kiss lipstick to use as her blush. She was visiting from Italy—it was her first night, and tragically, she had forgotten to pack her entire makeup bag.
