If we asked you what was the one colour that automatically screamed, ‘It’s time to party!’, the unanimous response would be a bold red. Standing true for makeup, red lips have been the ultimate holiday makeup staple for as long as we remember. Classy, timeless and striking— red lips are all you need to catch the spotlight. While red lips are a fail-proof option, why limit yourself?
When it comes to lipsticks, there are probably more shades out there than stars in the sky. Inching towards shades that are way out of your comfort zone is never a bad idea! From intense burgundy to chocolate brown and a popping pink, there are a plethora of stunning shades you can reach out for this holiday season.

Vivid and muted at the same time, that’s a coral lip for you. Not everyone’s keen on bold lips, that’s where this shade comes in. Coral hues can be paired with warm eye makeup for a monochromatic makeup look. A dash of lip gloss adds the right amount of glam.
