Go-to Fall Lipsticks | November 3rd, 2014

Here are some of my favorite lipsticks that I've been obsessed with using this fall: 



From top to bottom: 


 -Maybelline Color Sensational in Nude Lust 
-Too Faced Melted Long Wear Liquified Lipstick in Melted Berry 
-Bite Beauty Cashmere Lip Cream in Port 
-Maybelline Color Sensational in Touch of Spice 
-Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick in Tannin 
-NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dolce Vita 
-NARS Lip Liner Pencil in Jungle Red 




Maybelline's Nude Lust 

Amid all of the deep reds and dark plums coming out this fall, I like to sometimes take a break from it all and wear a classic nude, like this one from Maybelline. It is a little brown for my skin tone, so I add a little more pink by pairing this lipstick with NYX's Butter Gloss in Vanilla Creme Pie.       Highlights: classic nude, comfortable feel 


Too Faced's Melted Berry 

The amount of pigment in these melted lipsticks is insane. This product can be applied very lightly for a slight wash of color, or layered on for a more nighttime-appropriate look. Once it dries, this lipstick is very matte and will stain the lips. However, I would reapply or layer on a clear lip balm if you intend to wear longer than 2-3 hours. The formula can tend to be a little drying on it's own. Highlights: long wearing, intense color 


Bite Beauty's Port

This formula goes from liquid to matte, and is super long-wearing. I had this on at the Lorde concert for at least 4-5 hours, and the color held up beautifully throughout the night. Highlights: long-wearing, classic red, turns very matte 

Maybelline's Touch of Spice 


I am a huge fan of Maybelline's new collection of mattes, but my favorite out of all of them is this deep pink called Touch of Spice. It wears very comfortably, and is a happy medium for those who don't want to go super dark for fall, but still want a little bit of edge. Highlights: Perfect fall color, comfortable, not long-wearing 
  



Bite Beauty's Tannin 

Out of all of the products listed in this post, this lipstick is by far the most comfortable on the lips. That being said, it does tend to slide around a little more than the others. I would wear this somewhere where I know I won't be eating, drinking, or fussing with my lips. The lip products from this brand are all feature over 90% food-grade ingredients, meaning that this lipstick is natural and good enough to eat! (An even better drugstore duplicate for this is Maybelline's Color Sensational in Divine Wine. This one is actually hiding in the bottom of one of my purses somewhere so I didn't include it in the swatches above. Sorry!)Highlights: natural ingredients, moisturizing 


NARS' Dolce Vita 
When going to class or going for a more simple look, I really like this lip pencil from NARS. The reason it works so well during the day is because it looks like a very pretty natural lip color. On me, it's a perfect "my lips but better" shade. 
Highlights: natural shade, matte 




NARS' Jungle RED

With all of the red shades mentioned in this post, I use the lip pencil from NARS in Jungle RED. It works pretty well with all of the reds I've paired it with so far! 



So those are the lip products I've been loving for this fall! Thanks for reading, xo
