I love me a bold lip and when winter comes around I am all about the dark reds and berry tones!  So today  I thought I would share my favourite bold winter lips.

First up is my all time favourite lip formula, the Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella – I love this deep red, its just so flattering on every skin tone.  I am normally ghostly white in winter so this really pops on my pale skin plus it makes my teeth look amazingly white.  Next up is Rimmel Lasting Finish By Kate in 107 – this one is a fave of beauty youtuber Zoella and she definitely had a part in me buying this one.  I really love the formula of the Kate Moss lipsticks and this one is no exception.  Its such a stunning deep deep berry red that looks absolutely stunning on a night out.  A new one to my collection is Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm in Shameless – this is a really dark purple that scared me at first but I’ve finally been brave enough to wear and I really like it.  I wear quite a sheer wash of it but it just adds quite a fashion forward look to my makeup.  Staying with Revlon its the Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain in Crush – this one is an old favourite of mine and probably the first lipstick that got me into the darker shades.  As its a bit glossier that the matte shades it is probably a good one to start out with but still gives you that real berry toned lip.  I love this as well as it leaves a stain on you lip so there’s no awkward wearing off.  Finally back to Nars its the Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Damned – this one is truly stunning!  Its a beautiful berry purple tone that is slightly pinkish, I love this kind of vampy colour with a nice wash of a dark matte brown on my eyelids.  I wore this A LOT last winter and I’m sure I will this winter as well.
