Hi lovelies! My name is Sarah and I'm an Aussie beauty blogger! The lovely Daniella was kind enough to ask me to be a guest on her amazing blog. She is also working on a post for my blog at bowsandpleats so keep an eye out there! I’d also love if you guys would follow me on Instagram (@bowsandpleats). I post on there pretty much every day and would love to interact with you that way. If you want to hear about my top five lipstick picks for the summer, keep reading!
Since those of you from the Northern
Hemisphere are lucky enough to be heading into the warmer months, I thought I’d
do a post on my top five lipstick shades that I love to wear during the summer (or
any time I really feel like a pretty lip).
My picks:
- Model Co Party Proof Lipstick in Coachella Crush
- Milani Color Statement Lipstick in 12 - Flamingo Pose
- Max Factor Lipstick in 625 – Magenta Divine
- NYX Matte Lipstick in Hippie Chic
- MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in Crème Cup

Factor Magenta Divine, Milani Flamingo Pose & Model Co Coachella Crush
MAC Crème
Cup is a cult favourite shade among many beauty
lovers, and for good reason! This is the most amazing nude shade for the
summer! This is a cremesheen formula which I find nice and creamy with good colour payoff. It’s
a nude pink shade with cool undertones. This is a much loved colour by me!
NYX
Hippie Chic is a matte, yellow-toned light pink
colour. This is a gorgeous shade but it may not suit everyone since it does
appear quite light on the lips. I personally love it and think it’s a really nice
summer colour that is pretty unique within my collection. The matte formula
does makes it more on the dry side so it may emphasize cracked lips if you
don’t moisturise your lips prior to applying.
Max
Factor Magenta Divine is a lovely bright, warm
candy pink. It’s a creamy formula that feels moisturising on the lips yet still
packs a load of colour. This is a lovely everyday colour that would compliment
most looks.
Milani Flamingo Pose is such a nice bright coral pink. This lipstick is a
beautiful creamy, smooth consistency with lots of pigmentation. This is my
absolute favourite colour to wear to brighten up any summer make-up look. Love!
Model
Co Coachella Crush is a bright tangerine
colour. What a better time to sport a
bright orange-red lip than during the summer? The formula is a long-lasting
matte finish. These can be a little on the dryer side but the pigmentation is
amazing and you can achieve completely opaque colour. Be sure to wear lip balm
underneath!
Hope you all enjoyed my favourite summer
lipsticks! What are your favourite shades for the summer?
These are gorgeous colours. I'm in the Southern Hemisphere but most of them would be great year round :)

Thanks so much Lena! I definitely wear some of these year round. I don't think you should be limited to any specific shades just because of the season!
