Fall Lip Colors
Bring on the sweaters, hot drinks, and (of course) lip colors, because fall has arrived! Transitioning your lip colors for fall can be as easy as plum, two, three! From the darkest, vampy-est burgundy to the warmest hue of rust, you're bound to discover a shade that will become your staple for the fall season.
Fall is as abundant with lip colors as it is with gorgeous changing leaves and cool breezes. There are so many beautiful shades to rock. Still trending this fall are the ever-so-cool dark purples and deep, vampy reds. A gorgeous, deep plum-brown is MAC’s “Del Rio” ($17), a comfortable satin lipstick. If you want to go vampy this season, try Anastasia Beverly Hill’s tried and true “Liquid Lipstick” in “Vamp” ($20). Terra cotta and rose are great shades that resemble the warm colors of the changing leaves during autumn. A killer color is Kat Von D’s “Lolita II”, a warm terra cotta nude ($20).
If liquid lipsticks aren't your cup of tea (or pumpkin spice latte), a fabulous regular lipstick formula is Milani’s “Color Statement” lipstick. There are a variety of finishes in this range, and the colors are all so tempting it's hard to choose just one, especially at such an amazing price of around $6 each! I personally love these lipsticks and have many shades in my collection. My favorite is “Bahama Beige.” It’s my go-to shade, but I especially love to rock this warm beige brown in the fall. It goes perfectly with those warm orange and brown eyeshadow looks.
Another good shade is “Tuscan Toast,” a beautiful mid-tone magenta. ColourPop is another brand that has amazing products and colors at great prices. For fall, try their creamy “Ultra Glossy Lip” in “Sookie” either by itself or paired with a matching lipstick, or try their “Lippie Stix” in shade “Brink”, a warm, dusty taupe ($5–6). Lime Crime’s “Velvetine Matte Liquid Lipstick” in “Riot” is a color I personally think is the perfect blend of red and brown — two warm tones perfect for autumn ($20). NYX Cosmetics is another lovely brand you can't go wrong with. Their “Liquid Suede” and “Lip Lingerie” lipsticks are hot sellers and hard to keep on shelves ($6.99). Try to get your hands on the shades “Soft-Spoken” or “Ruffle Trim,” a pinky cinnamon.
If you’re a lover of lip glosses, like I am, a great fall lip gloss set is the “Fall Mini Lip Gloss Set” by Anastasia Beverly Hills. You get six shades for $28, with shades ranging from copper to rich chocolate brown, to a bright cherry red. Two lip glosses I will definitely be wearing this autumn are Kylie Cosmetics’ “Like” and “Literally” ($15). The formula is very comfortable and the color payoff is incredible!
I hope you “fall” in love with the world of lip colors this season, and remember to stay confident!
