We are big fans of bold lips. The summer months call for something a little lighter – both in color and texture (but never light in staying power!).
Summer lip color ideas
It was only right that we share with you our favourite summer lip colors and lip products! What we’re loving this summer:
Megan Giannini : I love NYX Beige right now. This is a beautiful pink lipgloss. It gives a more summery look when I apply it over lipstick. Sara Happ Lip Scrub leaves your lips feeling soft and smooth.
Melanie Allen (That’s meeee! Marketing Manager): Lush Mint Julips Lip Scrub is to die for! It is all-natural and tastes just like mint chocolate chip. It keeps my lips soft and smooth. Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Coral has been my go-to color. When I wear it, I feel instantly put together. Pretty color plus SPF 15… what could be better for summer?
Beauty Blogger Nikki Duckworth with her Favorite Summer Lipcolor Nikki Duckworth : This summer, Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color Guava is my go to lipstick. I love the fact that it is a coral color with just enough pink.
Ali Zimmerman, Web development expert and beauty classic: Mary Kay Satin Lips Set Keeps lips soft all year round – in the winter helps with chapping and in the summer, keeps lips hydrated. The balm by itself is super moisturizing (and is just a clear gloss for that summer “nude lips” look) but the lip mask is the gem here – gently exfoliates for the softest lips ever! Now, if I want color, I go with Cover Girl’s NatureLuxe because it has SPF 15 – very important in the summer – and nice long-lasting color with subtle shine (so you can still do a shiny gloss over it if you want).
Danielle McDowell, CMO and beauty risk taker: I am hooked on MAC Candy Yum Yum. Who can resist the pretty pop of pink color?!
Staci: Vegas Volt, definitely by MAC. This bold tangerine/coral is the perfect pop of color for me when I am feeling adventurous. It looks great with a black dress!
