The holidays are here and they just wouldn’t be the same without a bold red lip! Whether you are going to that fancy holiday party or it’s just another day at the office, Laura Mercier’s Lip Stain in Scarlet, $20 at Nordstrom.com, is sure to turn heads. What I love about this stain is that it stays put. As with most stains, after a few hours your lips start to feel a little dry, but a few dabs of clear lip gloss will take care of that problem. This stain is definitely one of my go to make-up staples, especially on days when I didn’t get a good night’s sleep. If you ever need a quick pick-me-up, there is nothing better than a bold lipstick. It immediately draws attention to your lips and away from your tired eyes. Go ahead and enjoy that glass of wine or two without leaving the evidence behind…this stain stays put.
