Guest Post: Favorite Fall Lipsticks!

*Anita and I did some guest posting for each other! Click here to see my Fall Outfit Ideas post.*

Hi everyone!

Fall is coming quicker as some of us want! (I can't wait though!) And this means my lipsticks get darker and browner.

I love switching my pinks and corals to browny, plummy colors. I personally wear lipstick everyday but you could also wear a lipgloss in a similar shade to the lipsticks I'm about to show you. I also know that Maybelline does a Babylips in a lovely plummy color called Grape Wine which gives a nice sheer but dark color.

I know these shades are all kind of similar but they do look more different in real life. The light kind of made them all look a little browny.

Maroon (Catrice), Hot Tahiti (MAC), Mauve it over (Revlon), Berry Smoothie (Revlon), Pink Truffle (Revlon)

First, we have Hot Tahiti by Mac. This is a gorgeous dark red with a slight sheen. You can built this up to full opacity or apply it sheer. It's s glaze so it applies like a dream and feels smoothing and moisturizing. 

It has good staying power, but it obviously doesn't stay as long as a matte color would.

This is my go-to red lipstick in the fall/winter time.

sorry, out of focus :(

Next up, we have Mauve it over by Revlon. It's a matte mauve brown beige color. It looks quite natural on the lips because it's not overly shimmery or anything like that.

If you have darker lips though, i would stay away from this because it's almost a bit to light for me and i'm pretty fair.

This lipstick stays on for ages due to the matte finish. The downside is, that it dries out your lips quite a but, so if you suffer from dry lips i wouldn't recommend this! If you wear a lip balm under it, the problem is solved!

Here we have, Maroon by Catrice. This is a dark browny neutral color. It comes of quite dark on the lips but it's still wearable because of the natural color.

It kind of looks like a mixture of Hot Tahiti and Mauve it over as you can see in the photo below.

This lipstick is very moisturizing and stays on quite a while. I have to touch it up a few times during the day though. 

If you love very pigmented lipsticks i would suggest the Catrice ones. They all have really nice color payoff! 

The two last lipsticks are Revlon's lip butters. I've done a full review of these on my blog.
