With Christmas just around the corner I’m so excited to be wearing festive makeup and for me lipstick completes the ultimate festive look!
These are my faves this year:
Prep
Always start with a lip scrub to smooth the lips out before applying lipstick. I love Lush Santa’s lip scrub for the festive season! It leaves your lips silky soft and primed and ready.
Don’t forget the lip liner for long wear and neat lips all night long!
For the Christmas party
This Barry M Lip Stain Paint in Absolute Burgundy is a deep red with a matte finish so it’s perfect for Christmas parties! It’s long lasting and a gorgeous festive colour which is different to your typical bright red. Who doesn’t love a red lipstick?! Plus the packaging is gorgeous and very Christmassy!
For Christmas Day
I love this MAC Frost lipstick in New York Apple. It’s a berry based red with a shimmery finish that is subtle enough to not look too glittery and the colour is very buildable! It’s perfect for Christmas day because its not too in your face and still so festive! You can’t beat a bit of shimmer at Christmas!
What are your favourite lipsticks for the festive season? Let me know below!

Thanks Hun! I do as well! 🙂 X
I need to try that lip scrub, I need to try lush as a brand in general lol. I don’t have a bath tub though ugh!
You do! It’s fine there are loads of things you can get that don’t require a bath! Shower gel and lip products and hair products! The lip scrubs are really good!
Those lip colors look fantastic – I’d love to get my hands on that Barry M one. I still have yet to try a Lush lip scrub!

Thanks Hun! Yeah it’s a gorgeous one and super cheap too! They have them at boots! You need to try them they are amazing!
That Santa’s lip scrub looks awesome – does it really taste like cola?
I’ve never heard of MAC New York Apple but it looks like the perfect festive red shimmery shade!
It really does yeah it’s amazing! Although I have to admit I expected it to take chrismassy lol like cranberry or cinnamon or something! Ooh it’s gorgeous I bought it in New York but you can get it in the UK too so I imagine you can get it in Canada? It’s gorgeous!
Great post. I love wearing bold lips but they’re definitely hard to keep in place with all the eating an drinking over Christmas 🙂 xxx
Thanks Hun! Yes that’s true!! A good lip liner and lots of re applying is key I think haha! Love a red lip at Christmas! 🙂 xxx
