Top 5 Lipsticks for Winter/Fall time



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
