Tout the Perfect Pout from Mistletoe to Midnight

Can you believe it's that time again? The holiday season's festivities are upon us, and chances are your social calendar has already be filled up with holiday cocktail gatherings, office shindigs, family functions, and the like. With celebrations, comes the pressure to pin down your holiday party makeup strategy. An easy way to manage the mayhem? Lipstick! Not only will the right never-been-kissed (foolproof) seasonal color make your party look pop from mistletoe to midnight, but it’s also the one time of the year when your makeup can be festive on purpose.

Red Lipstick is quintessential to the holiday season. It feels festive and has been known to becomes our go-to accessory when creating any sort of holiday party ensemble. But thanks to the myriad of formulas, finishes, and colors, no two are really the same. So, to make one list easier for you this year, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites - all of which will last from the cocktails, to mistletoe, and the milk and cookies by the fire.

  • It’s no surprise that Charlotte Tilbury, makeup goddess and queen of Hollywood glamour, has crafted the perfect shade of red with her Matte Revolution Red Carpet Red Lipstick ($34). Talk about WOW factor! The lipstick features ingredients for plump, hydrated lips in a matte finish formula.
  • The Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella ($26) is the perfect combination of lip pencil and lipstick in a matte scarlet hue. It should definitely be at the top of your wish list.
  • Sultry and classic are the best ways to describe the much-loved Chanel Rouge Allure in Pirate ($36). The long-wearing, blue-tinged shade is the perfect shade to tout for a gorgeous satiny finish. Santa, I'll take two, please.
  • The Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Fiery ($24) is a cherry pigmented liquid lipstick that has an easy-to-use applicator and vivid color. And, it’s not called “all-day” for no reason. This lipstick is built to last for up to six hours -this might just be our Christmas miracle.
