I'm a hardcore lipstick and gloss collector. With red being my signature look I decided to step outside my box and experiment with variations of pink...one in heavy rotation has been Bobbi Brown's "neon pink". What three shades of lipstick or gloss have you been using a lot of lately?
I've been really digging lip pencils lately!
My all time favorite is the Tarte LipSurgence Lip Luster in Glisten:) I kind of forgot I had it but recently brought it back out:) Another favorite I've been wearing a lot lately is the Milani Lip Flash pencil in Flashy:) My go to and favorite gloss is Urban Decay's Wall Flower:) It's a pretty color,and it's hard to explain but it goes well with my natural lip color:D
If you're comfortable with a red, I'd try a purple. I adore MAC's Up The Amp because it's not TOO out there, but still makes a statement (plus it's super flattering on everyone I know who's tried it!).
Back to the subject of pinks, Revlon do some beautiful shades of pink in their Colorburst line, and the formulation is one of the best on the market. The shade Strawberry is more of a reddy-pink, and is one I've been wearing for the past month religiously. Hot Pink is more of a Summer shade that I can see myself using more often when it gets warmer.
And for a little treat, YSL Golden Gloss in 42 is a little bit of luxury that sits well in my everyday makeup bag. :)
I like the revlon lip stain in berry, I usually put it on the insides of my lips, blot, then use a clear gloss and blot again. It's easy, stays, and looks awesome!
Creme Cup by Mac or Delish by CoverGirl I love the nude look of both of these. Creme Cup is a light nudey pink that looks great alone or with a sheer gloss like Stila Apricot over it, and Delish looks great paired with a nude liner.

oh and also if you can find it Studio Gear's Smile is a gorgeous spicy color for the fall or early spring. I love, love, love that color!
