It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of a bold lip color – I’ve gotten hooked on the impact that a swipe of great lipstick can make on my outfit, from a classic red to even a hot pink. Through the years I’ve tried dozens of lipsticks, from drugstore to department store and realized that the right combination of highly pigmented color, a non-drying formula + having lasting power isn’t so easy to find!

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, I wanted to share a few of my favorite bold lipsticks that would be perfect for date night or cocktails with the girls:

Revlon “Love That Pink” // NARS “Heat Wave” // Revlon Balm Stain in “Lovesick”
 Revlon “Berry Haute” // NARS “Red Lizard“

Do you have a go to shade when it comes to a bold lip color? Anyone else totally hooked on NARS and Revlon lipsticks?
