My favorite Fall/Winter Lip color

Hey Guys,

Winter is almost round the corner here in India. It’s sweater weather and all you want to do is cozy up with a hot cup of coffee. This is my favorite time of the year and I look forward to fall/winter when I get to bring out the dark hues from my makeup collection.

Some of my favorite looks for this fall are

  • Jewel toned eyes and red/maroon lips
  • smoky brown eyes and nude lips
  • bold brows and berry lips

So, in my hunt for a perfect lip color for this winter I found this beauty from L’Oreal in the shade “Black Cherry” from their Moist Matte lipstick range.

It’s priced at Rs.899

This lipstick is really pigmented and gives a matte finish. It lasted me for hours without having to touch up.

If you are using this as the day color then I would suggest just dabbing a few dots of this shade on your lips and blending it.It gives a nice lived in look without being too over powering during the day. For an evening look, you can go for one liberal sweep.The texture of this lipstick is buttery and glides evenly on application. The formula is very good and it does not bleed outside your lipline.

Tip: Since it’s a matte shade I would suggest prepping your lips to make sure it’s not chapped but on the other hand don’t go over board with moisturizing it with a lot of lip balm.This would make the shade to bleed quickly and ruin the finish for you.

I am so obsessed with this shade right now that I don’t step out without rocking the cherry lip even if I am out running some errands. It’s such a lovely deep berry color, I would recommend you try this with a golden/coppery eye shadow or keep the eye simple and let your lips be the highlight of this look.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post.
