Ten Summer Lipstick Essentials

If I had to choose just one make-up item to use for ever and ever it would be lipstick. You can change your look so drastically with just a quick swipe of color. Best of all, if you're in a hurry, you can still look put together with the addition of some lipstick.
I'm a drugstore make-up type of girl. I don't gravitate toward expensive brands and I find that some of my favorite long-lasting colors are the most inexpensive.
Don't get me wrong. There is something to be said about the high end products. I have a MAC, Stila and Laura Gellar in my collection - but I don't reach for those nearly as often as I reach for my NYX, Cover Girl or Essence colors.

With the warmer months upon us, it's time to start having fun with brighter colors. Here are a few of my favorites.

1. NYX Matte Lipstick in Indie Flick 

2. NYX Matte Lipstick in Alabama 

3. Loreal Colour Riche Lip Color in Fairest Nude 

4. Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake

5. Essence Longlasting Lipstick in Nude Love

6. Essence Longlasting Lipstick in Wear Berries

7. Cover Girl Spellbound 

8. e.l.f. Studio Matte Lip Color in Natural 

9. Wet n Wild - Don't Blink Pink

10. Wet n Wild - Mauve Outta Here
