Bold Lipped Confidence

September 19, 2017 in Lifestyle

Have you ever tried something new and it completely boosted your confidence? That’s how I felt the first time I put on this bold lip color. 

Disclaimer: this is not a sponsored post and I did not receive compensation from any of the brands mentioned. All opinions that are held are my own. 

My August make-up challenge (check out the bucket list here) inspired me to try something a little bolder for a fall lip color. I searched for the perfect dark wine-colored liquid lipstick. I am by no means a makeup guru, but I loved this powermatte lip pigment by NARS in the shade “Rock with You!” I am very cautious about matte lip products because I do not enjoy the drying effect that it usually haves on my lips. However, this product from NARS was super comfortable during my entire wear. Plus, the color is gorgeous!

This is hands down my favorite fall color. As soon as the calendar read “September” I was eager to add to my collection of wine-colored clothing. I saw this dress in the window of a New York and Company Outlet store. How cute are the bell sleeves?

These pictures are from my first ever blog photoshoot! I definitely would not say that I am a natural behind the camera. However, when I changed into this outfit (this was my second outfit photographed) it was like something changed inside of me. I felt more confident and playful. I think it showed. Thanks again to Michael Ellis Photos for shooting these for me!

      Thank you! I think its a good investment lip color! NARS also has a bunch of other shades in their powermatte that I love but haven’t purchased yet. My photographer was awesome! You can click on his name to go to his website 🙂
