With winter just around the corner, your lips may be in for some serious trouble. If you’re anything like me, the cold winter weather causes dry, chapped lips which doesn’t make for a smooth lipstick canvas. The only thing worse than fighting dreaded cracked lips is trying to dress them up. I’m a sucker for red lips as it adds the perfect touch of glam to any look, especially during the holiday season. After testing over 20 different red lipsticks, glosses and shimmers I’ve put together my top 3 lip lifesavers which will be sure to rescue you this winter. Get ready to kiss your chapped lips goodbye with these moisturizing heroes.

 

1. Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer (Rhubarb)

I am obsessed with Burt’s Bees lip products, and in particular their lip shimmer. Providing the perfect amount of colour and shine, this 100% natural product nourishes and moisturizes with vitamin E and beeswax. Enhanced with sunflower oils, your lips will look great and feel soft with this classic shimmer, available in 14 gorgeous colours.

 

2. Marcelle Rouge Xpression Lipstick (Rouge  en Folie)

I don’t think I’ve ever tried a lipstick that went on so velvety smooth. With a creamy texture, this lipstick is formulated to prevent dry, cracked lips and to keep them hydrated all day long. Filled with avocado and Omega-6 oils the Rouge Xpression lipstick smoothes out fine lines while remaining hypo-allergenic, perfume and gluten free. Pucker-up in the bold Rouge en Folie knowing your lipstick is working, even when you’re playing.

 

3. Mineral Fusion Sheer Moisture Lip Tint (Smoulder – Cherry Red)

This extreme-hydrating lip tint is packed with cocoa butter, leaving you with soft, firm, shimmery lips. Its beautiful yet subtle red tint is perfect for those who don’t like such a bright red, but still want a touch of colour. Eight reasons I love this product; it’s gluten free, cruelty free, paraben free, artificial colour free, fragrance free, talc free, phthalate free and it’s hypo-allergenic. No need to worry about pulling your compact out for this application …just twist, apply and enjoy the benefits of this lip tint.
