Lip Colors

Lip colors

With an assortment of lip colors, it's easy to match your makeup with any outfit or occasion. Lipsticks are available in subtle hues and vibrant colors, helping you enhance a natural look or go glamorous. Some types also have a plumping effect, which instantly transforms thin lips. You can find your favorite lipstick brands like Almay, Covergirl and Maybelline at Walgreens.com.

Lipstick Varieties

A standard tube of lipstick adds rich color. Select a high-shine variety or pair it with clear lip gloss for a dazzling look and moisturized feel. Use lip glosses that contain a hint of color for more shine than shade. If you prefer a thin, sheer layer of color, opt for a lip stain. You also have the option of using a tinted lip balm, which can moisturize and protect your lips while adding color.

Lipstick application

Lip colors have different types of application methods. Lip stains typically have a tip like a marker, allowing you to apply a thin layer with precision. Glosses and liquid lip color are usually applied with a brush you dip into the tube. The brush makes it easy to control the amount of lip color you apply. For a well-defined look, pair your tube with lip liners or lip pencils. They outline the contours of your mouth and keep your lipstick in place. With so many shades available, you are sure to find pencils to match your lip colors. For the perfect balance of color and shine, select a dual-sided tube of lipstick or a two-step package.
