Lipsticks and eye pencil are the only makeup products that I wear regularly. Though I love wearing makeup, I rarely get the time to sit and do a full face of makeup except on some occasions. So, when Shikha, of Sorelle Grapevine, tagged me in a post to write about my top 5 current favourite lip products, it wasn’t really very difficult for me…I immediately made a mental list of the 5 lipsticks I would write about coz these are almost the only ones I’ve been wearing these past few months.
Here are my current 5 faves:
1) Estée Lauder Double Wear Lipstick in Stay Mauve
This is the lipstick I have been wearing most frequently especially if I’m out for a long time and I need a long wear lippie. The colour, texture, wear time, everything is fabulous and I really LOVE this lipstick. Read my full review here.
2) Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Ultra Lipstick in Watermelon
For an effortless look, for the times when I just want a bright, glossy lipstick that I can apply and dash out the door, this is the colour I reach for. Review and swatch here.
3) Rimmel Lasting Finish By Kate Lipstick #19
This is my current favourite MLBB (my lips but better) shade with just one swipe, a bit darker with two swipes. I bought this in May and it immediately became a fave. I’ll write a detailed review regarding the texture etc soon.
4) YSL Vernis A Levres Glossy Stain # 12 Corail Fauve
Another bright pink which somehow looks more red on me probably coz I tend to apply 2-3 layers of this gloss most of the times. The swatch of this gloss isnt really accurate…it looks far prettier on the lips rather than in the swatch. Will do an LOTD with this soon. Review here.
5) YSL Vernis A Levres Glossy Stain # 7 Corail Aquatique
This is my most recent purchase and I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s a delicate peachy n*de with a glossy finish and looks fantastic for day wear as well as with smokey eyes. I’ll review this one soon too along with a LOTD.
So,these are my 5 current fave lipsticks. All these are very versatile and wearable colours which is why i can wear them so very frequently. I could have included lip balms and lip scrubs etc but then I would have needed to write about more than 5.
I enjoyed doing this fun tag post. I tag all of you reading this post to write about your 5 current fave lip products.
Thanks 🙂
Yea, do try them out…they have lovely colours.
I really love the ysl stains 🙂
great stuff 🙂
Love your selection. Now I have to get atleast one YSL stain!
Lovely picks dear .. YSL range looks fab .. gonna try them soon .. Kate Moss 19 featured in my top 5 too (Same PInch ;))
On me, it lasts about 3-4 hours without eating, which is quite ok. Maybe thats coz I always hve lip balm under the lippie. But if u want long lasting, get EL Double Wear, its awesome.
It is a gorgeous colour with a lovely texture. I love wearing it 🙂
Do share your thoughts about the Rimmel lippy’s staying power!
Great picks!! I loved that beautiful color from Elizabeth Arden in watermelon.:)
