My Lip Gloss is Poppin'

Hey everyone! So I know I say this a lot, but I'm so sorry I've been MIA for a while. Going to school full time is obviously my first priority and I was very consumed with my studies as well as my sorority. That being said, now that I'm on summer break I'm going to work really hard to make this blog be a top priority and give you more beauty tips and reviews than you could possibly need! So to kick off summer, I thought I would tell you all about my go-to lip products. I'm a sucker for bright, yet natural looking lips. Nudes are a little too plain for me and reds and dark purples are a little out of my comfort zone, so I tend to stick with hot pinks. And this time, I think I found my favorite combination. As always, you want to start out with smooth lips, so I like to use the Nivea Lip Butter in Caramel Cream Kiss. This smells amazing and is super moisturizing! Then I go in with my Sonia Kashuk Lip Definer pencil in number 15 Hibiscus. This lip liner is a bright cool toned pink that goes on super smoothly and goes well with every skin tone. I outline my lips with this pencil and then fill them in. This by itself looks beautiful, but to make it a little shiny, I use my NYX Butter Gloss in BLG18 Cupcake. It's a cool toned bright coral color that goes perfectly over the lip liner (and it smells like frosting!). This lip combination is so beautiful yet simple and I always get tons of compliments on it! If you have any questions or requests for upcoming blog posts, leave a comment below and I'll talk you y'all later!
