Back in the day, I avoided lipsticks like the plague.  I typically stuck with glosses or simple chap stick (still my go-to.)  But ever since Ray got me a Birchbox subscription for Christmas last year, I’ve been loving trying out a variety of colors and consistencies.  Actually, even more so, I’ve fallen back in love with a bright red lip.

This Stila liquid lipstick has been my favorite for events where I know I’m not going to be able to reapply regularly.  The events I’ve worn this to include everything from our Halloween party to both the Holiday Mart and Denver Fashion Weekend just these past couple of days.  The color is a little more pink than being a harsh red, making it perfect for day or night.  And this product lasts and lasts and lasts.  I typically re-applied once per event, but more for the shine than anything.  The color stayed for hours!

 

Ignore the weird car lighting, but I decided we needed a quick snapshot to show you guys the color prior to Holiday Mart on Saturday morning

 

I wouldn’t recommend this collection if you’re looking for a lighter look – the color is absolutely on the brighter side.  But I would absolutely recommend trying it out if you’re in the market for a lipstick that’s perfect for transitioning seamlessly between the power lunch and dancing the night away.
