The weather is beginning to get cold enough now that our beauty routine will start to change up. Summer was all about light, nude and glossy but as fall approaches, you will want to take it into the dark side with vampy matte lips. No, you won’t look like you just gulped down 3 pints of blood or a whole bottle of old vine zinfandel but this fall’s vamp lips choices, which can work on most skin tones, will give you that sexy, gothy mysterious look. As you switch up moisturizers, serums and lip treatments, be sure to add one of these matte lipsticks to your fall beauty routine. Pro tip: To avoid a crusty lip look, as with any lip treatment, make sure your lips are properly moisturized and flake free. You can either do a sugar scrub or when brushing your teeth, moisten lips with warm water and gently scrub the dead cells off.
For our corporate 9-5 readers looking for some extra oomph in your day-day beauty routine without raising a whole lot of handbook eyebrows, we will give you some options in a later post.
