Favorite Lipsticks

Okay so I know what you're thinking, "how many favorite lipsticks can you possibly have?!" Well I'm a lipstick, lipgloss, and lipliner junkie so obviously I can never have enough. I could wear lip products whether I have a full face or no makeup at all. It just brings everything together. 

Here are some swatches and names of each lipstick:

(Top to bottom swatches) MAC Twig, MAC Faux, MAC Kinda Sexy

Milani Pretty Natural, Milani Nude Creme, Rimmel Nude Delight

Rimmel Bordeaux, Maybelline Make Me Pink, Revlon Mauve It Over

Wet N Wild Mauve Outta Here, Wet N Wild Bare It All, Kat Von D Liquid Lipstick Lolita

I love all different textures and finishes to lipsticks. You can see some of these are matte, glossy, or pearlescent. I love this range of colors too because they are all very wearable. My little tip to women who are not used to wearing lipstick and want to give it a try, start sheer and natural. Try a tinted lip balm. Either way, you can transform your entire look with some beautiful colors on your lips.

Spring 2014 Makeup Trend: Orange Lips

This year's makeup trend is one of my favorites and really makes a lot of makeup looks POP! If you've looked through recent fashion and beauty magazines you can see all the different ways people are wearing orange lips. The most amazing thing about wearing an orange lip is that it is flattering on so many skin tones. It is such versatile color and creates a warm and glowing touch to your final makeup look.


Here are some looks from the runway and from fashion magazines to give you a better idea of how versatile this lip color really is:

When wearing an orange lip my personal recommendation is to find a moisturizing lipstick. Sometimes very vibrant colors look best with a little sheen to it instead of appearing matte. Here are some brands that I have personally used and loved:


MAC - Morange
Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids - Electric Orange
Bobbi Brown Lipcolor - Orange
Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick - A-Go-Go
