Lipsticks Over $15 | 2019 Editor’s Favorites
It’s so hard to pick favorites! I really do suffer from appreciating different finishes, types of formulas, undertones, and a plethora of shades. Lisa Eldridge’s Velvet Lipsticks were as good as billed, which I finally reviewed in 2019 (they sold out so quickly that I was waiting for a restock to review). The new MAC Love Me Lipstick range was a welcome addition as I love a more luminous formula. Ciate’s Jessica Rabbit lipstick was definitely a top favorite, but if you know me, you know I love a shimmery red lip!
Otherwise, lots of lovely shades from established formulas that I’ve enjoyed for years. Enjoy!
If you’re unfamiliar with how I like to do my year-end favorites, here’s the low down: I pull from the products I reviewed in 2019, regardless of whether they were new, limited edition, or an established range I’ve only just gotten around to reviewing. These are personal favorites, so they may or may not be the highest rated products reviewed during the year (though they will tend to be better rated, naturally!). (You can check out best of 2018 if you missed it.)
