Top 7 Lip Products To Try

One of the first cosmetic items I bought and tried out, when I was a pre-teen, was lip gloss. Specifically, Covergirl LipSlicks – which I still have a soft spot for!  Since then, I have been fully addicted to all sorts of lip products. From simple balms, lipsticks, lipliners, lip stains, to lip plumpers and of course, lip gloss – I have more than enough in my collection to last me a lifetime. However, that doesn’t keep me from buying and trying out more!

I do have my favourites or my defaults when all else fails. These are the ones I re-buy once I’m out and/or have back ups of in my make up dresser.

1. Softlips (in pretty much any flavor) – I’ve said this before but I never leave home without one. I have a few strewn all over the place, in various bags, in my car etc.

2. Nars Dolce Vita lipstick – My holy grail lipstick shade; it is the perfect colour for me and the formula is fantastic.

3. Nars Stolen Kisses lipgloss – Another holy grail lipgloss; a beautiful neutral pink shade that’s perfect for every day.

4. Nars Pampa Lip Stain – One of the best lip stains I’ve tried; it’s like a non-drying marker for your lips!

5. MAC Baby Sparks Dazzle Glass – A shimmery, non sticky lipgloss in the prettiest light pink shade!

6. Benefit Benetint – The first lipstain I ever bought and next to the Nars lipstain, it’s one of the best ones I’ve tried and the bottle lasts forever!

7. DuWop Reverse Lipliner – This is a wonderful go with anything lip liner that keeps your lipstick and glosses from feathering and makes the edges of your lips smooth.

These are my personal favourites but they’re amazing products and worth a try if you’re looking to pick up a new lip product. If you do try them or have tried them let us know what you think by commenting below!
