FIVE FAVE! | Lipsticks

Happy Valentine's Day, lovelies! 
I haven't done a Five Faves post in a hot minute (October 19th, 2014 to be specific!) and I was inspired by Nessa Giron to do one on my current favorite lipsticks when she tagged me on Instagram to share my picks!  Thanks for inspiration, Nessa!  These are my five current favorite lipsticks of life!
    Buxom Dolly Full-Bodied Lipstick - A luminous mauve
    NARS Happy Days Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil - A sheer pink coral
    Urban Decay Rapture Revolution Lipstick - A creamy berry plum
    L'Oreal Lovely Mocha Glossy Balm - A warm MLBB pink | Full review here.
    MAC Syrup Lustre Lipstick - A cool plum pink
What are your five current favorite lipsticks?

  1. Hey Kristen! These look gorgeous and I haven't tried any! I want to try the revolution lipsticks.. probably the new sheer ones!

  2. I really enjoy these favorites posts! I've heard nice things about the L'Oréal glossy balms, Lovely Mocha looks like a great color to start with! Syrup is the only one I have in my stash but I haven't given it much love - thanks for reminding me to pull it out and wear it more often. Hope you have a lovely Hearts Day <3!

  3. Oh! I like the looks of Happy Days and Lovely Mocha. I haven't really done any favourites posts before... perhaps I should try?

  4. FAVE LIPSTICKS OF LIFE. OMG. I can't pick, lol. Rapture looks amazing. Adding it to the list of lipsticks to swatch!

  5. OOh, love this! Picking fave lip products is always fun, but hard, lol!

  6. I just pulled Happy Days out of "storage" and put it back into my "regularly used" makeup. Wahoo! I am loving UD Revolutions lately. Nude is a fave, I recently purchased Liar and Protest - both of which are deeper than I was hoping. Not bad, but not what I was in the mood for. I'm wanting more nudes lately and am just not finding what I'm looking for!

  7. I still gotta get Syrup! Seriously. I've never had that MAC lipstick-I've been missing out!

  8. Rapture is gorgeous! How did you manage to bring it down to just five?! :p

  9. These are so pretty! Happy days shows up way different on your skin than I'd expect it to. It's so pink rather than the deep red it looks in packaging. I don't think I could choose five at the moment. I'm currently loving Rimmel London's Provocalips in Play with Fire. (:

  10. Excellent picks and excellent pix too! Syrup is an old favourite and I need to have another look at it the next time I hit a MAC counter. If I had to choose five I'm loving currently this summer I'd go with TF True Coral (again!), Bite Beauty Rose, Nyx matte Shocking Pink, TF Cherry Lush (my Valentines Day red pick) and MAC Peach Blossom :)

  14. Apart from maybe Rapture I'd sooooo wear all of these! Fantastic picks, Kristen!

  15. Both will look gorgeous on your beautiful face! :)

  16. GET IT! I have a feeling Syrup could turn into one of your favorite lipsticks ever! The color would be perfect on you!

  17. LOL, Vita! Thank you so much! I love your picks!

  18. Oh gosh, yes, Happy Days is a sheer coral, I guess my photo editing "skills" made it look red in the packaging! Rimmel makes great lipsticks!

  19. Oh yeah, Tracy! Syrup + Tracy = YAS!

  20. I'd love to see you sporting Happy Days! Love that you pulled it out of storage, lol! Rapture is the only UD lipstick I have, but my eyes have been on their Sheer Revolution range lately. For your nude search, what about MAC? They have the most amazing range of neutrals, to me, out of any lipstick brand. Or Bite Beauty's new Buttercream Hand Cut lipsticks? They look to have a good range of nudes. Best of luck on your dream lipstick hunt! :)

  21. Ha ha, thanks, Liz! Rapture would be stupendous on you!

  22. Ha! Stephanie, you forgot your wallet! You'd love a Glossy Balm, they're such nice little mirror-free lippies! Happy belated V-day to you and Spencer! <3

  23. You should definitely do a favorite post, Lily! I'd LOVE to read it! :D

  24. Thank you, Indayluvs! MAC Modesty used to be my purse staple lipstick, until Syrup came along! And Lovely Mocha is beautiful and would be flattering on anyone! Happy belated Hearts Day to you, too! <3

  25. Thanks, Divya! I've been lemming one of the UD Sheer Revolution lipsticks, too! I love the ease of sheer lippies and know you do, too! :)

  26. 'Happy Days' is calling my name! I've been loving MAC's Brave and my all-time favorite MAC's Kinda Sexy! That one's my HG lippie!

  28. Nice picks! I would totally buy the NARS Happy Days just for the name. <3

  29. by the way just gave you a shout out on my oscars blog post since you so awesomely gave me the exact name and product used on gorge margot!! i don't wear tons of lipstick (usually glosses) but right now they'd be mac "angel" and "flat out fabulous" plus l'oreal's "british red" and nyx soft matte creams in "istanbul" and "san paulo"

  32. Ooh, love your picks, JennySue! <3 And thank you for the shout out on your Oscars post! I saw her look "revealed" somewhere the next day and they used all Hourglass products on her. That lip liner and lipstick combination was bangin'! :)
