Now that we can finally enjoy in-person holiday parties this year, nothing can spice up a little holiday glam like the classic red lip. Traditionally, I prefer nude lipsticks for everyday wear, but during the holiday season, I like to indulge in a pop of holiday color. Just like we dress to impress for each holiday party, our lipstick can be a statement of its own. If you’re open to exploring a few new holiday lipstick hues, here are a few suggestions for the best holiday lipsticks to wear this season.
Arguably, MAC’s Ruby Woo is one of the most famous red lipstick shade. It complements almost all skin tone and with the matte finish that stays on all day. Another popular red MAC shade is Russian Red. This is personally my favorite and my go-to for a tasteful pop of vibrant color. For a clean finish, I recommend using a lip liner to outline your lips, then apply the preferred shade of lipstick.
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna’s Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid Lip Color
Rihanna’s beauty brand is literally everything and her lipsticks are no exception. Stunna Lip Paint is exactly as described and is flattering on all skin tones.
The Lip Bar Matte Liquid Lipstick in Hot Mama or Bawse Lady
Hot Mama is a fiery matte red lipstick that pops on all skin tones.Similar statement shade Bawse Lady will turn heads at any after five work event. Once this lipstick dries, this lipstick will not budge until you wash it off.
Maybelline Wine Rush
Darker than the popular shade Red Revival but still lively in color, also great price for budget friendly shoppers.
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in Le Rouge
If you’re looking to treat yourself this holiday season, YSL beauty has a bright apple red that has a satin rich finish.
