Now that Winter is half way through (in the UK that is). I thought
it would be a good time to share with you some of my favourite lipsticks which I
have been wearing a lot in these colder months. I love this time of year
because hello bolder lipsticks. For me, the colder months are more fun because
you can experiment with darker colours without being branded as a ‘goth’. So here are my 5 Favourite lipstick for winter:
1. MAC : Media
My most worn lipstick this winter has been MAC Media which
is a stunning, vampy purple/red wine shade. I bought this over the Christmas period
in the sale and I am absolutely addicted to it. I probably wear these 5 times a
week. I am obsessed!
2. MAC: Ruby Woo
This is a shade that I wear all year round. It would probably
be more associated with a more summer type of lipstick. However, I feel like a
classic bold red is perfect in the winter time and it has a Christmas vibe to
it.
3. NYX Liquid Suede: LSCL12 Vintage/Retro
This is my first NYX Lipstick that I have ever purchased, and
I am certainly impressed with it. The shade that I have, Vintage/Retro, has a
plum colour with a slightly movulum Subton. I don’t normally wear liquid lipsticks;
however, I LOVE this. It stays on throughout most of the days. I will be buying
more NYX liquid lipsticks from now on.
4. MAC: Persistence
This lipstick shade was recommended by someone from Twitter
back in August when I tweeted that I was not ready to accept it was time to put
my Velvet teddy shade away. This twitter user said if I loved that shade I
would love this – which she was right! I went about 2 months of wearing this
shade every day. It is a warm peachy cinnamon with a matte finish, a not so ‘in
your face’ colour which is perfect for everyday wear.
5. MAC: Diva
This is the most recent MAC purchase, so it has not been
worn as much as the others. Diva is an intense reddish burgundy in a matte
finish. In my opinion it’s the darker and richer version of Ruby Woo. I
recently wore this lipstick to an 80’s night which I attended with my parents
as I felt it had a retro vibe to it.
What about you? What lipstick shades are your favourite for the colder months?xo
