Top 3 Summer Lipsticks! | annieblaircouture

Hey couturettes!

Summer is my favorite and the perfect time for bright lipstick! My favorite lip color for this summer is orange. Neon is a huge trend this summer and what better way to wear it than on your lips?! I've chosen three colors that I love for this summer by three different well known brands; drug store and high street.

My first color that I chose is the Nicki Minaj Viva La Glam by MAC. It's literally neon pink and it is an absolutely perfect color for spring and summer. I can wear it during the day with a natural eye look, and also wear it out at night with a more dramatic eye look; it's perfect for all occasions. It is pigmented and it smells amazing; as do all of the MAC lipsticks. I believe that this certain lipstick is a special edition version of the Viva La Glam line; so make sure you run and get it fast!


The next lipstick that I chose is my favorite lipstick everrrr! I'm sure I've raved about it plenty of times before, but it is called Infrared by Topshop. It isn't super pigmented just in case you want to wear it lighter so that your lips aren't bright orange. Personally, I like to go all out because I love the orange look. I think this lipstick looks best when it is worn with a natural eye, or cat liner and white clothing. It also pulls out the nice features on your face if you wear your hair up in a pony tail or in a cute pin up bun. 


The last lipstick that I chose is a color that is super sexy for summer! It is the #06 Kate Moss by Rimmel. I've been wearing it so much this summer during the daytime and at night. This color is so versatile it's amazing. I'm not sure what they put in the Rimmel lipsticks, but they smell so delicious and fruity; so I bet if you get it in your mouth it would taste good! Haha. This lipstick is very very pigmented, so even one coat will be very visible. It's the perfect amount of bright and dark for the sweet, yet dramatic look!


This is my swatch of all three of the lipsticks together:

I wore the #06 Kate Rimmel lipstick in my Hello YouTube Introduction to my YouTube beauty channel video that I uploaded recently. I also have a Get Ready with Me video coming up that explains how exactly I did that dramatic summer look! I will link the video below, so you are able to check it out! While you're there, make sure you subscribe! It would mean so much to me! 



I hope everyone is enjoying their summer as much as I am! I love summer fashion trends; it's so hot outside and I'm actually enjoying my crop tank tops and high waisted shorts! Comfy, cool, and stylish! Make sure you check out my YouTube beauty channel and let me know what you think! :) 




Have a wonderful day! xoxo

Introduction to my Beauty Channel | annieblaircouture

Hey couturettes!

AnnieBlairCouture

I hope everyone's summer is going well so far! I never want it to end! So, I started this blog in December and decided to start a beauty channel on YouTube in January. I uploaded one video about my Every Day Makeup Look and just left the channel alone for a couple of months because I had a lot going on with school. Well, I'm back now and I'm ready to upload a bunch of videos for y'all! I already have so many planned I'm so excited. This is my proper introduction to my channel, so I hope you enjoy and let me know any feedback you think that will help me for my future videos! It's pretty awkward, but I'm naturally awkward so I don't think I could hide that very well! Haha!

If you aren't familiar with my first video or you haven't seen it I am linking it below, so you don't miss out! Make sure to subscribe to my channel so you can be on top of my future videos coming up!
