Holiday Lipcolors To Help You Look Merry And Bright

The holiday season always makes me feel like dressing up a little more and adding bolder colors to my makeup routine. It's the best time to break out those bright reds, fuschias and plums that have been sitting in your makeup drawer all summer. Here are a few of my current favorites!

I like to use the OCC Lip Tars during photo shoots because they are extremely pigmented and long lasting. Pretty Boy is a bright fuschia, and Strumpet is a berry/plummy red. A tube of this stuff will also last you *forever* because a very tiny bit will completely cover your lips. It's also a vegan product, which is fantastic.

 

The MAC lipsticks  above are two different textures- Glaze and Amplified. If you want to experiment with a brighter, bolder color but are a little nervous, give Hot Tahiti a shot. In the tube it looks quite dark, but goes on pretty sheer and is a very spicy, warm red. Girl About Town is a vibrant, plummy pink that looks great on every skin tone.

 

Tarte Lipsurgence are some of my favorite daily lip products because they are so moisturizing and long lasting. Flashy is a really fun raspberry pink with a little bit of shimmer.

 

If you are looking to add a little glam to your look for a holiday party or New Year's Eve, give these a try!
