Fall Lipstick Review

Hey everyone!

So I know I mostly only ever talk about Jack here and the on-goings of our family life, but I am interrupting my usual coverage for a topic I'm highly interested in right now and that is LIPSTICK.

I know. Hard-hitting news. A VERY important topic, obviously. But seriously, I am in LOVE with the new dark colors that are becoming so popular for fall and winter.

As a pre-teen I was a big fan of lip gloss. But once I started kissing boys it wasn't worth the hassle to use it, so I pretty much only stuck to chapstick (which Daniel STILL hates.) haha. (Imagine how much he loves my new lipstick obsession. ;))

So I gathered up my top six fall lipstick shades, some are glosses, to share with you all. If you really don't care about makeup, I suggest you stop reading now and check back tomorrow when I have Jack's 20-month-update completed.

If you're still here. Let me tell you about my fave new lip shades for fall. (Also pardon all the selfies. thx.)

#1. NYX Butter Gloss in Creme Brulee

This one isn't dark, but I still feel like it has a great neutral fall tone to it. Plus, if you've used any of the butter gloss from NYX, you'll note it isn't sticky like a lot lip glosses, but it goes on really smooth but still adds a lot of color. I love it.

#2. Revlon Color Burst in Adorned

This one is BRIGHT. Even brighter than you can tell in the pics. I love it though. Daniel says it looks like I murdered a pomegranate with my mouth. HAHA. It goes on smooth. Wears off quickly, like most glosses, but does stain the lips a little pink, which I kinda like.

#3. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Violet Frenzy 

This lipstick is an actual stick. It goes on smooth and is shiny, not matte. I love the feel of this. Very moisturizing. It's also pretty purple-y, so if you like that, you'll love this color.

#4. Julep Maven Lip Gloss in Posh

I recently joined Maven by Julep and get a mystery beauty box every month. Usually contains nail polish and gloss or some combination depending on your likes. You can even customize it. I'm not sure I'll keep it going just because it's kinda spendy, but I got this amazingly pretty gloss in my last box. Beautiful color. Goes on lighter than the rest of the shades I'm featuring here today, but it's kinda nice to have a lighter option when I am not wanting something so dramatic.

#5. NYX Butter Gloss in Devil's Food Cake



Out of all of the glosses, this one is my favorite. Feels amazing on my lips and I LOVE the color. It's exactly what I was looking for. Plus, I think it was like $5 or something at Ulta. Really affordable.

#6. Too Faced Melted in Melted Berry 



This is melted liquefied, long-lasting lip color.  It's gorgeous and it's INTENSE. If you want bold, here ya go! Just don't kiss anyone. It's probably the most FUN I've purchased lately. Goes on really strong so be careful during application and I'd also recommend using a lip liner because it totally bled when I wore it after trying it on in the store the other day. It took a lot of effort to get it off the skin. lol.

So thanks for checking out my brief appearance as a beauty blogger today, folks. Again, check back tomorrow to learn more about my little Smarty Pants Jack Bean.
