Lipstick, to some, might just be a fun addition to a makeup look. To others, it is a form of self expression. Whether you’re looking for a bold statement, a pop of color, or an everyday lip, you’re in the right place… It’s national Lipstick Day! This July 29th, favorite beauty retailers are serving up major freebies and sales. College Fashionista searched far and wide for a range of the 10 best lip products to look for this National Lipstick Day.

I have had my eyes on this product since they announced it. Who doesn’t want that promised wet look without stickiness. Shop now and receive a free matte liquid lipstick with any order of $40+. $16.
03. NYX Shine Loud Vegan High Shine Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick
Its name may be a mouthful, but it is every bit worth saying. This product is more than long lasting. The color I typically use, Trophy Life, left a stain that lasted all day and night. After applying the color, apply the gloss side which not only gives a shimmery look, but seals in the lasting color, also.

07. Ulta Marvel Studios' Thor: Love and Thunder Lip Gloss
If you are looking to upgrade your lip look, check out Omnipotence from Marvel Studios’ Thor: Love and Thunder, only sold at Ulta. What I love about shades like these is that they add a beautiful sheen and shine. It can be used on bare lips or atop your other fave products, as this is meant to be a tinted lip gloss. There are also three other shades: mauve, purple and nude. This gloss will become your superpower. $12.
08. Bossy Cosmetics Bossy Gloss

Nomad cosmetics recently released their first lip gloss collection. The pigments are beautiful and can be worn alone or as a topper to your fave lipstick. There are four shades: hot pink, light lilac, soft peach and lavender. These lip glosses contain sweet almond oil and jojoba oil that is meant to moisturize and smooth your lips. The hot pink and lavender are two of my favorite shades. Oh, did I mention they include glitter? A little shimmer is the icing on the cake! $12.
