The black owned company “The Lip Bar” came out with the perfect signature red for all skin tones. This is a red I love to wear whenever Im in a sexy flirty mood.

Looking for an unapologetically bright color that falls somewhere between a classic red and bold orange, Creeper will be just what you need!! An extremely pigmented bright orange-red that won’t budge from your lips. You definitely need an oil-based makeup remover to get this off or it will wear right into the next morning after your hot steamy night affairs. You can dress this bright orange up with colorful floral patterns or dress it down with a silk lace dress and your favorite animal print mules.
Pink Plaid Lipstick $18.50 with Cork Lipliner $18
MAC COSMETICS
(Dirty Blue-Pink)
This creamy rich formula features high color payoff in a no-shine matte finish. Described as a dirty blue pink this is a light nude that you will need to pair with a brown lip liner such as “Cork.” This was the first nude lipstick I ever brought and I must admit it took my eyes a while to get adjusted to the soft nude look versus my intense bold red or purple looks. But once I learned how to wear this lipstick, it fastly became my go-to nude. This nude is your everyday lippie that looks great paired with a beat for the gawds face or your au natural skin kissed summer glow.
