Best Lipsticks of 2019

DIOR ADDICT LIP GLOW +  SISLEY PARIS PHYTO LIP TWIST :: as suggested by GILLIAN WHITLOCK (Key Make Up for Fox’s The Last Man On Earth and HBO’s Togetherness)

+ My personal favorite lipstick is actually more of a balm. — Dior Addict Lip Glow. It comes in 2 colors- one is pinkish & the other is peachy. The color interacts with your chemistry to become your own color. It’s so moisturizing and the perfect thing if you want a bit of color but not a lipstick look!

 + For my clients, I am loving the  Sisley Paris Phyto-Lip Twist.  They’re like giant crayons – easy to apply & you don’t really need a lip pencil because the shape allows you to outline & fill in easily.

Urban Decay’s New “Alice” (Disney Alice Through The Looking Glass) and Physicians Formula Argan Wear Ultra Nourishing Lip Duo in “Liquid Gold & Pink” :: as suggested by STACY COX (national correspondent and lifestyle expert for Dr. Oz, KTLA, E!, Extra, The View)

+ My fave lipstick is  Urban Decay’s New “Alice” (Disney Alice Through The Looking Glass).  Its sheer simmer, neutral nude goes with anything.  It’s easy to put on and hit the ground running.

Revlon ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor in Unlimited Mulberry $5.26 :: as suggested by STEPHANIE CHAO (former marketing exec turned mother of 3, rock star wife)

+ I love it because it’s the closest color to my real lips!  When I kiss my girls, I don’t leave lipstick on their face.  It’s water proof and food proof — and will survive anything.  It lasts all day and there’s no need to reapply.  Great for busy moms!
