Happy first weekend of spring, chickens! While I may not wear them all too often, I'm a big lover of the bright lip trends that start up again come Spring. There's something about a bright lip that just makes you feel just that bit more confident, am I right? Here are my top five faves for spring/summer lip colours, complete with swatches.
Starting off from lightest to brightest, first comes Bourjois Colour Boost in Peach on the Beach. It's a fairly sheer, but still punchy, peachy-pink. It is a comfortable wear and not so bright that people stare when you take it out in public.
Next comes a darker and more orange-y coral, Revlon Coralberry. This formula can be a bit tricky, as it has got a slight glittery texture, but it really is a lovely more toned down orangey-coral. Tip: Make sure you've got your teeth looking their best before rocking this one!
Next up comes the boldest coral of the bunch. I absolutely love Rimmel Coral Queen for nights out in the Spring/Summer. The formula is dreamy and creamy and looks just fantastic with a tan, if you can put your imagination cap on and ignore the current lack of one.
Heading on over to the pink side of the brights, we have Revlon's Kissable Balm-Stain in Sweetheart. This is one I definitely see myself wearing more of this year. It's great for day to night, since it is not super bright while still making a statement, and lasts and lasts due to the staining qualities.
And finally, probably my favourite of the bunch, MAC Impassioned lipstick is an absolutely beautiful watermelon pink that is full-on colour and still comfortable to wear. I've gotten so many compliments when I wear this on nights out with the girls.
And there you have it - my top picks for adding a little pop of colour into your life this spring and summer.
Are you a fan of the statement lip?
Just the other day I was thinking about how I am excited it is spring so I could wear brighter pink lipsticks! I love this post, thanks for sharing your picks!
ReplyDeleteI wore Coral Queen through most of last Summer and when we had the sunshine the past couple of weeks (where has it gone now?!) I dug it out again, it's definitely a favourite of mine.
