Top Five Lipstick Shades for Winter

If you were ever in the mood to go bold with your Lipstick Color- Now is the time. Winter is a great season to show off the solid colors in your wardrobe and use contrasting lipstick colors to match. If you’re a little apprehensive about wearing bold lipstick shades, I recommend reading: Everyone Can Wear Red Lipstick- Even You!  

Below are the Top 5 Lipstick Shades to wear during the Winter and Fall Months. Although there are so many beautiful colors to choose from, i’ve narrowed it down to just five. Don’t forget- if you want long lasting lipstick, be sure to use a good Lip Primer

Be sure to comment if you have any additions you feel deserved to make the list!

Cranberry

 Cranberry and Burgundy shades are fantastic for this time of year. Striking against any skin tone, this color will bring a lovely “pop” to any face. I recommend wearing long lashes and subtle eyeliner with this lipstick color.

Browns

Brown shades of lipstick are often under rated. Many people gravitate toward Nude and Tan colors, but browns are a great addition to any face. Bonus: This color looks great for more “natural” looks too.

Shimmery Pinks

Don’t be fooled. Not all Winter Lipstick colors are Dark or Matte. Shimmery Pinks are beautiful, especially when paired with a creamy shimmer blush. I can’t help but think of a Winter Wonderland when I see shades like the one above.

Gold:

Over the years, Gold has gotten a bad rap. Women either think it doesn’t match their skin tone or they think it’s too flirty/too bright/ too something or another. But i’m here to tell you- it’s just fine! Gold is an excellent “highlighting” color and can be played up or down, depending on your outfit and preferences.

Black

The Winter and Fall months are by FAR the best times to wear black lipstick (In my humble opinion). You can even layer it over a deep red lipstick like the one shown above. FYI you will change your look dramatically depending on what color eyeshadow you wear, so play around and see what you like.

Thanks so much for stopping by the CBC! Here are the Top 5 Lipstick Shades for Winter & Fall. I hope you enjoyed!

Nicki Minaj to Release New Fragrance This Fall

Nicki Minaj is broadening her horizons from rap and expanding into the world of fragrance. According to WWD she will release her new scent this Fall. Minaj has reportedly linked up with Give Back Brands LLC, the same company that created a scent for Justin Bieber.

According to Vibe.com Nicki says:

“I have always been a huge fan of great fragrances. This is yet another extension of my creative expression. I designed the scent and bottle with my Barbz in mind.” 

According to Shine  Nicki says: “I like scents that feel summery, but have a va-va-voom. I want to smell like a sexy and confident woman, not like candy.”

 

Being a fan of Nicki Minaj, i’m pretty psyched to see her bottle design and fragrance choice. something tells me the color pink might be a large element to the design…

Honey and Champaign

These are fantastic colors to go with any complexion or hair color. You can also play up or dress down these shades for a night out or a lunch date in the afternoon.

Classic Barbie Pink

This shade just doesn’t go out of style for me. I swear I like it on everyone… not just blondes with super awesome cars and boyfriends named Ken ;P

Corals 

Perfect for the classy lady or spunky girl who is always on the go. Corals can be matched with many different fashion patterns and prints. It’s really flexible if you experiment a little with it.

Magentas and Dark Pinks

These colors are so rad for the girl next door (with just a little something to hide) look :)

Oranges and Peaches

Not to be mistaken for coral shades, these are a little bit rarer to be seen worn. I have no idea why, because these are great colors that compliment many complexions. Especially fun on those with peaches & cream complexions!
