Seeing red this Chinese New Year? This auspicious hue is everywhere during this time of the year, and it’s a super popular choice of lip colour to elevate your look.
Bright and bold reds are always top of the list when it comes to eye-catching makeup, but to make colour last the entire day, choosing a lip stain might be your best bet.
Nowadays this type of lippie comes in so several forms, with one of them being the cream version, an ultra-matte, ultra-pigmented and transfer-proof product.
Look for products that list out long lasting or long wearing with high coverage as they are a great choice of lip stains that last all day.
Love red but can’t quite picture yourself going all out with this shade? Check out lip mousses that are buildable and can be layered as thick as you please.

These are a versatile type of lip colour which can help create a softer look, starting with colouring in the middle of your upper and lower lip, finishing off with a lip gloss that is blended from inwards to outwards.
For a fuller look, cover your entire lip with the lip mousse and dab lip gloss in the middle of your upper and lower lips for a bit of extra shine.
If red is not your thing, no problem! Nudes are in and are especially great for festivities as you’ll be eating, drinking and chatting throughout the day – activities that demand a lot of lippie touch-ups.
Nude hues in silky mattes, soft-focus mattes, shiny sheers and sleek satin lip shades are several of the many options of lip colour products to choose from.
