No New Year's Kiss? Wear These Bold Lipsticks Instead

Not only do sparkles get everywhere, they're famously hard to remove. Embracing the glitter lip trend on an average day may be completely NSFW, but if you're riding solo on New Year's Eve, there's no better opportunity to shine. Get the look in one step with Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics' ultra pigmented red Lip Tar that's infused with flecks of glitter. 

Urban Decay's electric violet matte lipstick is an on-trend hue that's bound to become the life of the party. 

The only way to make the evening's velvet ensemble more festive is few coats of a vibrant berry lipstick. 

Not quite black, this creamy bruised violet shade will instantly transform any outfit into an edgy one. 

A red matte lip may be as classic as your LBD, but the shade is notorious for smudging—especially during makeout sessions. If you're single, stepping into the New Year lipstick intact will be effortless, so put on a few coats of Dior's long-wear crimson tube. 

A foolproof way to make everyone at the New Year's party green with envy: Swipe on this turquoise liquid lipstick. A doe-foot applicator makes precise coverage easy. 

We've unofficially proclaimed the holidays as "glitter season." It's the one time of year when no amount of the sparkly stuff is too much. Cap off the year by swiping on a rose gold shimmery top coat over your favorite bullet, or wear it alone. Unlike your average gloss, this Lime Crime formula isn't sticky or goey and dries on quickly without settling into your lip lines. 

Chances are navy isn't a part of your regular lipstick repertoire, but there's no better night than New Year's Eve to test a new shade. Moodier than a wine shade, when paired with radiant barely-there makeup, an inky blue will undeniably chic.
