In honor of National Lipstick Day on July 29, Nordstrom is offering up to 50% off lipsticks! Many brands are featured, including Bobbi Brown, MAC, Too Faced, Kylie Cosmetics, Clinique, and more. We found the perfect shades for this upcoming fall that will complement any and every fall outfit!
One of the top lipstick creators year after year is Bobbi Brown. Known for their long-lasting lip shades, one Nordstrom beauty exclusive that is featured during their sale is Bobbi Brown’s Extra Lip Tint Duo Set. These lightweight, moisturizing tinted lip balms are made of olive, avocado, and jojoba oils that help soften and smooth lips and reduce the look of fine lines. They also offer a little lip tint with the shades Bare Pink (a sheer pink tint) and Bare Raspberry (a sheer rose tint).
For a product with a little bit more color than a lip balm, try Bobbi Brown’s Luxe Lipstick. Available in twenty different shades, our favorite colors for fall include Rose Blossom (a darker pink), Parisian Red (a vibrant, electric red), Your Majesty (a dark purple), and Almost Bare (an everyday nude). This lipstick is paraben-free, sulfate-free, phthalate-free, sulfite-free, and gluten-free, making it a safe and effective product! Reviewers say that after wearing the lipstick, their lips still feel hydrated and moisturized — even after the product is removed!
For a lip stain by Bobbi Brown, try their Crushed Lipstick. This lipstick formula offers a just-kissed stain in one swipe! This formula is buildable by adding more layers for more color. Our selected fall shades include Dark Chocolate (a medium brown), Ruby (a mid-toned red), and Blush (a fabulous nude).
When it comes to Kylie Cosmetics, her Matte Lip Kit is what spurred her rise to fame in the beauty industry and has kept her at the top. This kit comes with a matte liquid lipstick and lip liner duo that are waterproof and smudge-proof for up to 24 hours. Our favorite fall colors include Kylie (a light pink nude), Mary Jo K (a bold pinkish red), Better Not Pout (a dark blush), and Maliboo (a true nude). Kylie Cosmetics states that for best results, line and fill your lips with the pencil first and then apply one coat of liquid lipstick on top. Her products are paraben-free, sulfate-free, gluten-free, and cruelty-free. Not to mention, they’re vegan!
MAC cosmetics has the brightest and boldest colors when it comes to everything makeup, but their neutral shades are just as hard to beat. Their Boldly Bare Essential Lip Wear Set is a Nordstrom anniversary sale beauty exclusive that includes a lip pencil, lipglass, and amplified lipstick. Available in neutral and pink, both shades are ideal for a classic fall look. The lip pencil helps define and shape the lips, while the amplified lipstick has an 8-hour wear. For a finishing touch, the lipglass helps give your lips a glass-like finish (AKA shine). This is a limited edition set that won’t last long!
If you want a bold and bright fall lip color from MAC, try their MAC Lipstick, the lipstick that made them famous! Available in over 60 shades, we separated our favorites for fall into two categories: bright and vibrant and everyday wear. For our favorite everyday wear, try the shades Fabby (a light pink), Myth (a total nude), Gel (a nude with a shine), and Photo (a rich brown). For bright and vibrant shades to give your fall outfit an extra pop, try the shades Flat Out Fabulous (a bright pinkish purple), Lady Danger (a hot, bright red), Saint Germain (a very light but bright pink), and Rebel (a dark and deep purple).
This full coverage lipstick, no matter the shade, will be a show stopper and the perfect complement to any outfit this fall! If you want to ensure that your lips are defined, shaped and filled, make sure to buy a MAC lip pencil along with a lipstick. Available in 13 different shades, the liner works well with many different lipstick shades to help outline the lips for a more structured lip. MAC says to try a shade slightly deeper than the lipstick you are using for a fuller look.
Some lipsticks can feel sticky and as if there is too much product, but Too Faced created the perfect weightless, non-sticky lipstick called Too Femme Heart Core Lipstick. Available in five different shades including Never Grow Up, Heart Core, Too Femme, Crazy For You, and Nothing Compares 2 U, this limited edition lipstick gives off the perfect amount of color without feeling heavy. It’s created with shea butter and vitamin C-rich acerola cherry extract to ensure that the lips feel hydrated and soft.
Too Faced has also made a creamy lipstick with less shine called Lady Bold Lipstick. Available in over ten different shades, our favorites for fall are Trailblazer (a medium pink), Take Over (a deep red), and I’m Thriving (a light pink nude). Too Faced describes this lipstick as feeling soft as a whisper, and their products can even help smooth the appearance of lip lines!
On July 29, National Lipstick Day, these products and more will be on sale with up to a 50% discount during the Nordstrom anniversary sale. Don’t miss out on your chance to have the best lip colors for the fall and treat yourself on National Lipstick Day!
