PUCKER UP FOR THE HOLIDAYS
| Not sure what to get that special ‘makeup loving’ someone on your Christmas list this year? Don’t worry! I am here to help. As a responsible beauty blogger (read makeup addict), I have tested A LOT of the products, and have taken the time to narrow down my top beauty picks for the holidays. |  |
A girl can never have too many lipsticks, lip glosses, lip anythings, really. What you choose to wear on your lips can change the way you feel. Pink lips can give you that sexy & spicy feel; nude lips, a more demure and angelic look; bright red lips, a boost of confidence. Below are five of my favourite lip sets for the holidays, perfect for any of the special ladies on your list:
Lise Watier Collection 5 Mini Plumpissmo Le Gloss ($33 CND at Shoppers Drug Mart)
Containing five of Lise Watier’s famous, non-sticky glosses, this holiday set is the perfect gift for any gloss lover on your list. The five glosses (bronze, rose, opalescence, coral and nude) all contain a plumping agent which gives the lips a fuller and more lustrous look.
Stila Lip Glaze Set ($33 CND at Shoppers Drug Mart)
Containing eight of Stila’s high-shine, deliciously flavoured lip glazes, this set is a steal. This set, which contains four of Stila’s most popular shades and four brand new, limited edition colours, will wow even the most difficult to buy for individual on your list.
Smashbox Snap You’re Fab Lipgloss Set ($33 CND at Shoppers Drug Mart):
With six limited-edition shimmering lip glosses, this set is perfect for the most ‘fabulous’ diva on your list. This set contains two full sized glosses and four mini glosses (perfect for slipping in your purse). The glosses, ranging in colour from a bright red to a shimmering gold toned nude, are packed with finely milled glitter and give the lips a stunning and dazzling effect.
Buxom Mix and Mingle Lip Set ($49 CND at Sephora):
With four of Buxom’s Big & Healthy lip glosses and four of their Big & Healthy lipstick pencils, this is the most versatile set. Each gloss is matched with a co-ordinatingly coloured pencil, making it the perfect gift for the makeup novice on your list. All of Buxom’s lip products contain a plumping agent, which gives the lips a cool, minty tingle.
Tarte Lip Service Limited-Edition LipSurgence Collection ($38 CND at Sephora):
While I love all of the sets listed above, I have to admit that this limited-edition set, containing five of Tarte’s super glossy, extremely moisturizing lipstick pencils, is my favourite. This set, which contains five full sized pencils, is valued at $156 CND. With five gorgeous and unique colours (red, hot pink, nude, gold and coral) this set will be sure please the biggest makeup addict on your list.
