Hi, I’m Kelli and I’m (somewhat) addicted to lipstick . And, I always seem to go for the same color: pink. Why? Not only is pink the natural color of your lips, so you can do something sheer to enhance that, but you can do something bright to make a statement, or just a soft every day pink can pull together ANY makeup look. Heck, in these photos I don’t have a lick of makeup on EXCEPT lipstick! (Probably thanks to a good skincare regiment and my recent BBL treatments from Sando Aker- Click here to read more about BBL and the benefits for your skin).

Today I’m sharing 9 of my favorite nudey pinks (one of which is a total nude, no pink at all) but wanted to throw it in the bunch because its such a great neutral. These are the lippies in my makeup collection that I go to on a regular basis, and are great for every day wear. Listed in no particular order, and here we go!

Going from right to left here- from the most color payout to the least:

1. Bare Minerals Bare Pro liquid lipstick in “Petal”. Not usually a fan of lipstick in a tube- over the last two years I’ve become more of a liquid lipstick type gal, applied with the applicator. THis one however, is such a good color, glides on creamy and doesn’t dry your lips out at all. But, I am a HUGE fan of bare mineral lip products- three of them are her in my top 9 pink picks, if that tells you anything!

2. Kat Von D Studded Creme Lipstick in “Lovecraft”. I already knew I loved this lipstick in another color (see #5), so when I got this sample size Lovecraft in one of the birthday packs from Sephora Keystone, and it was such a pretty pink- I knew I had a winner. I will repurchase this one!

3. Bare Minerals Gen Nude Liquid Lipstick in “swag”. I originally purchased this in the color “frenemy” but for some reason they’ve been renamed. “swag” is the closest to this color and I’m calling it a perfect (muted) Barbie pink. Color payoff is so good, and these are buttery smooth. (another of this same line to come next!)

4. Tarte, Tartiest Creamy Matte Lip Paint in “namaste”. One of my favorite every day lipsticks- I keep one at home and one in my purse-makeup bag. Super velvety, non-drying and smells slightly of spearmint. YUM!

5. Kat Von D Studded Creme Lipstick in “petal pink nude”. I originally purchased this in the shade “agatha” which I’ve since bought 3 times- but they also seemed to have changed the color names on these two. Closest shade is now “petal pink nude”.

6. Bare Minerals Gen Nude Liquid Lipstick in “slay”. I mean, I have to say: I think Bare Minerals wins the “Kelli Award” for my favorite and most often used pink lipsticks- majority win here out of the 9 items I’ve included in today’s post- congrats Bare Minerals! * This one is slightly more nude that the one listed above in #3.

7. Bobbi Brown Luxe Liquid Lip in “barely nude”. This one is thick and sticky, but for a glossy lipstick, it’s got good color payoff, and long lasting shine. Just don’t stand in front of a wind machine with your hair down in this one- HAAAAA! Looks fab on freshly bronzed skin and a smoky eye!

8. Buxom Plumping lip creme gloss in “white russian.” MMMM vanilla cupcake. This is a third time purchase for me too. It’s really such a pretty color by itself- and that’s how I usually wear it. It’s a light shimmery, creamy pink that’s good for those days when you just want a little more natural, but still glossy. *Warning- this one tingles as it is a “plumper”!

9. Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss in “light pink 001”. This one is even more sheer than #8. Almost clear, perfect for ANY skin tone for a natural, glossy glow, and a little plump to set -you-OFF GF!

*All of these lip products are available at Sephora Keystone at the Fashion Mall, or online at any of the links I have shared. *This is not a sponsored post.
