Are you a risk taker? I’m sure as hell not. I hate gambling, I like knowing the future and I’m constantly anxious about everything. Therefore, risks are terrifying to me. In fact, it’s taken me years to even build up the courage to take makeup risks.
Makeup is something I’ve deeply loved since the end of middle school and taking risks with it always felt too frightening. In fact, I religiously stuck to petal pink lipstick (gloss if I felt daring) throughout the majority of high school. I didn’t wear red lipstick for the longest time because I was afraid of pulling it off, even though plenty of fair-skinned people pull it off every day (Uh, Taylor Swift!?).
My latest and greatest makeup obsession has been nude lipsticks. They’re so versatile and you can eat burgers and drink coffee without having ridiculously noticeable lipstick marks. They also fade very beautifully, which means reapplication is pushed to the back burner. Almost all of my favorite nudes are drugstore lipsticks, which is perfect for those on a budget (or those who just love a good lipstick).
Here are some of the best nude drugstore lipstick colors for those who want to look glamorous without spending a ton of money to do it!
One of my favorite thing about the holidays, aside from family and food and giving gifts, is the fact that glitter becomes incredibly more prevalent in stores and in makeup looks. There’s also ample opportunity to really amp up that glam factor and I am HERE for that.
With great glitter and bold lips comes great difficulties with making the look last and taking it off. Super dry “butthole” lips and glitter that never seems to come off are too real, but today I’m going to help you solve these dilemmas while looking fabulous.
