Hello readers and welcome to my second installment of my ‘Summer Must Have’ series in which I share products I think are perfect for summer. Today, it’s all about my favorite lippies! From neutral to bright, drugstore to high-end, you’re bound to find something you’ll like.
Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick in Palomino
Love this magenta hued lipstick as it’s richly pigmented and creamy formula applies smoothly. The color will eventually wear off after a few hours especially after drinking or eating but it’ll leave behind a stain.
Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella
Part of the Sephora Beauty Insider birthday gift, this crimson red lip pencil soon became one of my favorites. The pencil tip allows for a smoother and precise application and the matte formula is comfortable to wear.
NYX High Voltage Lipstick in Rags to Riches
Highly pigmented color and budget friendly, this lipstick is a beautiful pink shade that has a creamy application. Not the longest-wearing shade but it does last a solid 4 hours.
Sonia Kashuk Velvet Matte Lip Crayon in Raspberry Nude
A vibrant berry shade, this lip crayon is very similar to the Nars Matte Velvet Pencil for a fraction of the price: easy to apply and the matte formula ensures lasting color.
L-R: Palomino, Cruella, Rags to Riches, Raspberry Nude
Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint in Moody
This dark berry/plum color can be worn sheer or layered for more intensified color . It comes in a retractable pencil like form which means you never have to worry about sharpening it and can spend those precious seconds having fun.
Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick in Melted Nude
Packaged in a squeeze tube, the soft angled tip allows for easy application and the neutral color is a forgiving shade that can be applied on the go.
Urban Decay Super Saturated High Gloss Lip Color in Punch Drunk
If you want to venture out of your comfort zone and are looking for a lovely orange hue, look no further. Rich, creamy and glossy color, all encapsulated in one pencil.
YSL Rouge Pur Couture Vernis A Levres Glossy Stain in Corail Aquatique
The most luxurious of the bunch, this gorgeous coral pink gloss is speckled with subtle gold shimmer and leaves behind a lovely stain. The unique applicator has a wider base that deposits color on your lips while the pointed edge makes it easy to get a precise application.
L-R: Moody, Melted Nude, Punch Drunk, Corail Aquatique
That does it for today!
What are your favorite lip products for summer?

Great post! The most of all i like Melted Nude and Cruella. Such beautiful shades!
Thanks! Ah, Melted Nude is great and Cruella is my new favorite red alongside of Laura Mercier. 🙂
Palomino is awesome. That Sonia Kashuk in Raspberry Nude looks like something I wanna wear! I am enjoying this series!
Yes Palomino is amazing and definitely try the Sonia Kashuk. I feel like the Nars is slightly better in formula but these are great nonetheless. I’m so glad you’re enjoying the series. 🙂
Punch drunk looks awesome.
It’s a really great vibrant orange that the pics couldn’t do justice too but I tried, lol. 🙂
Pretty swatches! I would love to try NYX High Voltage Lipstick in Rags to Riches & YSL Rouge Pur Couture Vernis A Levres Glossy Stain in Corail Aquatique. Those two are my favorites out of the all of the bunch. 🙂
Thanks. Love the pigmentation of NYX HV shades and I love, love the YSL Glossy Stains. Such a pretty color and I know it will look great on you. 🙂
Beautiful shades! I would love to try the Sonia Kashk in Raspberry Nude. It looks gorgeous!! 🙂 xo
