Everyday Lipstick Guide

Coral Lip | Muted Pink | Pop of Pink | Nude Lip

Despite my growing collection of lipsticks, I’ve made it my mission to find my signature lip color– or colors for that matter. You know, the colors you can wear every day and feel instantly glamorous. After looking at my collection, it’s evident I only  wear pinks and nudes. I’ve tried reds and bolder shades, but they just aren’t practical for everyday. At least for me anyway! These four colors are my absolute favorite that I wear all the time. I chose these because they are the ones that seem to last for hours and they don’t dry my lips out. The gloss doesn’t have as much staying power as the lipsticks, but it’s still a great color to have on hand. These shade are also easy to mix. For instance, Vanilla Suede looks great with Pink Poodle. It makes a glossy, nude/pink that I just love. Just remember, the key to rocking a lip color is finding the right shade for your skin tone, and after that, it’s all about how you wear it. (It’s all about confidence!)

What is your go to shade? I would love to hear about it!

    I am in love with this post! I have only recently become a lipstick gal and struggle with trying to find the right one that doesn’t over power my look but still pulls everything together! P.S. You would love our Wear your spring dress now post that we shared on the blog today!

    I’ve been loving Mac’s “Syrup” lately. Perfect for the fall/winter lip but not too over the top. A deeper hue that is also gorgeous but not too much is Nar’s Audacious lipstick in “Anna”.

    My go to is “Turkish Delight” from NARS. Always the perfect pinky nude for day to day wear.

    I am definitely a lover of pinks and nudes. I only wore lip gloss in the past, but now I have gotten into lipstick. My favorite nude lipgloss in Chanel’s Giggle and my go to pink is MAC’s Girl About Town. It is a bright pink, but it always makes me feel super confident when I put it on.

    A Lovely Lifestyle

    Love all of these choices. I need a good everyday color. I think I am going to try the coral one!

    I too am new to wearing lipstick and I an a little scared of the “brighter” shades. Out of these that you mentioned, what do you think would be best for me? My complexion is similar to yours and I have dark brown hair. Thanks for you help! I love your blog and really enjoy reading your “Beauty Talk” series. Thanks!
