Happy Tuesday lovelies! I hope everyone had a great weekend and a wonderful start to their week. My Monday yesterday was CRAZY busy, but I didn’t mind too much since it made the day fly by!
Since we are getting closer and closer to the holiday time and Christmas, I wanted to share one of my beauty must-haves for around the holiday season… the perfect red lipstick! I’ve been using this red lipstick for years and I have yet to find one that I like better.
I’ve raved about the NARS Powermatte Lip Pigment for years now in a variety of colors (their “Somebody to Love” color is one of my faves for fall!) but what I love most about these lipsticks is that they truly are an ALL DAY stay. I’ll put this on in the morning and through multiple cups of coffee (seriously, probably way too many cups of coffee haha), lunch, and the remainder of the day, it STILL manages to stay in place and looking fabulous! I even convinced all the ladies on my row at my old job to buy this lipstick because they were always asking how I kept my lipstick in place all day!
This red lip color is called “Vain” and is literally the perfect red lipstick for Christmas. It’s not orange-y at all (I’m personally not a fan of orange-y/red lip colors) and like I said, it stays in place all day and doesn’t transfer onto anything. I also use the applicator wand to outline my lips as if I would do with lipliner! The tip of the wand is thin enough to where you can use it to line your lips and then use the middle part of the wand applicator to fill in your lips. I also always make sure to let the lipliner fully dry before I purse my lips together. (This prevents it from getting any red lipstick on my teeth!)
I hope you lovelies get to try out this perfect red lipstick for Christmas! It’s my all time fave and since I’ve used it for so long, I feel so confident recommending it to all of you so you can try it out for yourselves!

Thanks for reading friends, I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday and a great rest of the week. Xx.
I haven’t bough a lipstick in ages. Will checkout your recommendations.

That really is the perfect shade of red, not too bright, and dark enough to be sophisticated without being moody. No wonder it’s been your favorite for years!

I have only ever found one red lipstick that I love, but this one looks promising! looks gorgeous on you!
The holiday season might be the only time I ever wear red lipstick and this is such a good shade. Looks great on you! xoxo, Sarah
It has been AGES since I’ve worn a red lip color. My husband isn’t a huge fan of me wearing any lip products because they can be so sticky – but when I go out with friends or dress up for a photoshoot, I definitely reach for my top colors. I’ll have to check this one out. It’s so festive for this season!
That is the perfect red lipstick! It looks gorgeous on you! Would be amazing for the holidays!

Love a good holiday red! I haven’t tried NARS yet, I usually do Charlotte Tilbury or Laura Mercier.
The rich, dark red looks good on you with your coloring! I have to go a bit lighter because I’m so pale – ha!
