Why I Choose to Wear Bold Lip Colors

bold lip colors - Lipstick and chiffon
Swatches of all colors shown below in order: Kiko Milano Red, Dior Addict Extreme Lipstick in Black Tie, Kat von D Studded Lipstick in Homegirl, Nars Lipstick in Heat Wave, Lancome Color Design Lipstick in Posh Pink, Dior Lipstick in Mysterious Mauve

I absolutely love wearing strong or bold lip colors. They can take a simple bare look and instantly elevate it to a sophisticated and polished look in seconds! These lipsticks I have modeled and swatched here are some of my favorite go-to lipsticks. I usually have at least 2 of them in whichever purse I am using. A bold lip color instantly elevates my mood when I put them on and can help me get through a rough day or power through a super hectic day. No matter what, they are there for me. 

A perfect bold lipstick is equivalent to that pair of heels that can take any outfit from casual to dressy to a whole 'nother level. 

If you are already a fan of wearing a strong lipstick then you know what I'm talkin' about. If not, then you need to at least get one and have it on hand just in case you find yourself in need of a boost. Trust me it works!
