I have to admit that when it comes to lipsticks I'm definitely a Spring/Summer, bright lips kind of girl. However, this year I'm determined to get into the trend of wearing some alternative lip shades. Last year I came across and was smitten by the Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lipstick range. If you're on a budget and after a great formula with a matte finish, these are definitely worth taking a look at. For that stereotypical 'vampy' lip I'd recommend shade #107 Wine; It's a great way to introduce yourself into darker shades without being too bold. On the other hand, if you're feeling festive #111 Kiss of Life is such a pretty and wearable vibrant red. I can definitely see myself switching between these shades for the next couple of months.
Are you a fan of dark lips at this time of year? I'm going to try my best to make it work this year! I'd love to know what your favourite winter lip shades are so make sure you let me know in the comments below!

I wish I had perfect pouty lips like yours! Both shades are yummy but I think the wine is my fave. :)

It's so perfect for this time of year <3 xxx
DeleteOoo I have the wine shade and I wear it all the time! You're right that it's a great way to introduce yourself to the "darker" side of lipsticks. Another suggestion is to go with bright berry shade if you're a spring/summer gal. Those still look appropriate for fall and winter but aren't too vampy or dark :)

It's a pretty shade! Oh I may have to try a berry. xxx
DeleteI really want to pick up 107, I've read so many good things about it! My two favourites at the moment are Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Crush and MAC Rebel! :) xx

It's a gorgeous shade. xxx
DeleteI recently bought the infamous #107 lippy! Everyone always said it's the 'perfect red' but I really wouldn't describe it as red at all, it's definitely a raspberry / plum colour. I still love it though!
