There’s no denying it, autumn is the season for darker lips. It’s like because the evenings are getting darker, so does lipstick. Now this doesn’t necessarily mean donning a berry or purple lip, I think brown can be just as autumnal, so here are five lip products ranging from the berry and brown spectrums that I know I’ll be wearing throughout autumn.
My ultimate lipstick is of course my beloved MAC Velvet Teddy, but I feel like it really comes into its element in the autumn time. Autumn isn’t just about berry lips, I think a brown nude can work just as well, particularly because it compliments burgundy eyeshadows like a dream.
Following from Velvet Teddy, if you love the shade but prefer a liquid form, look no further than the NYX lip lingerie on the shade Bedtime Flirt. Their shade range is amazing so I’m sure they do a whole handful that have this season down to a tee, but I love this one in particular and it has a really lovely to wear formula, so I love wearing it day to day.
Another MAC product I think autumn is the perfect season for is my Vamplify lip gloss in the shade Tuned In. Now I’m no avid lip gloss lover but that’s because I feel like lip glosses are often too sticky and lack pigment. This one is the total opposite – the pigmentation of it is insane for a lip gloss and it is the loveliest light berry shade. It’s dark enough to be a vampy autumn lip (as it’s name suggests) while also being everyday friendly – perfect for this season.
A liquid lipstick shade I love come this time of year is my Maybelline Vivid Matte in the shade Nude Thrill. I’ve tried a few liquid lipsticks (I’m growing to love them more and more lately) and the formula of this one isn’t my favourite at all – it just doesn’t seem to dry! Yet it has to be mentioned because of its stunning shade, it’s a real orangey Nude that kind of reminds me of the fallen leaves and I love pairing it with burnt orange eyeshadow.
My final autumnal lip favourite is one I bought at the start of last autumn, and therefore it just makes me think of this season so much because I wore it constantly this time last year. Urban Decay’s vice lipstick in the shade Backtalk is the perfect autumnal lipstick for when you want something a little bit darker to compliment your autumnal wardrobe. It’s a gorgeous purple toned nude and I think it’s simply perfect this time of year.
What are your autumnal lip must haves? I would love to hear in the comments, I’m always looking for new favourites!
