I cannot believe that this is my last post for the fall semester! As my first season with CollegeFashionista comes to an end, I would love to reflect on one of my favorite trends this holiday season. Usually everyone springs for the classic red lip look when Christmas rolls around, and who can blame them? It is definitely one of my go-to beauty looks. It is fun, easy and clean. What I love about this season is that I have seen more and more people rocking the muted red lip.
This Fashionista paired her subtle red lips with an everyday outfit. She chose dark wash fitted jeans that are perfect for going to class or a day out with friends. She paired the jeans with a flannel that has red accents to complement the lip. Since we are having such a mild beginning to winter, she chose to wear a bubble vest instead of a jacket. The Fashionista also is wearing a staple pair of booties that complete any look. Lastly, she finishes her look with a statement necklace and a classic pair of pearl earrings.
I know that we are all in a rush while getting ready in the morning but taking the time to put on some lipstick or lip gloss will make you shine. It’s the best decision you could make all day!
What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: You can start with a staple shade of red lipstick. I use MAC lipstick and the shade is Captive. For a more matte and defined look, try adding lip liner. I recommend the NARS velvet matte lip pencil in Cruella. Also, swap out the lipstick for a lip treatment. My favorite it the sugar stick by Fresh in the shade Ruby. It hydrates your lips while adding a pop of color and also has SPF.
