Yes, wearing masks can damper the overall lipstick mood, but all those Holiday Zooms can be extra glam if you’re gifted one of the below! I’ve assembled the Best Holiday Lip products for your loved ones (or yourself, obvs). From masks to mutli-taskers, prepare to fall head over lips in love.
First! A stunning multi-tasker from Quo, their Double the Fun Lip and Cheek Cream | $20 at Shoppers Drug Mart/Pharmaprix
This is a dazzler of a kit. The packaging is beautiful and portable. Easily applied with your (clean) fingers, this lip and cheek cream is buildable – from barely there to bold. The colours are beautiful – I like adding a pop of the centre, pinky-gold shade in the centre of my lips for shimmery dimension.
Next! The Quo Triple Treat Lip Prep Trio | $18
Designed to prep, treat and pamper that kisser, this power Trio from Quo is a must-gift (if you can still find it!). Complete with a brown sugar exfoliating scrub, a Vitamin E and Jojoba Seed Oil mask (for day or night), and a Shea Butter-based balm to soothe and enrobe.
Next, the Soap & Glory Treat my Lips Melting Exfoliating Balm | $14
Trying to wear lipstick without prepping your lips first, especially in these crispy dry months, can lead to uneven application – so I always recommend doing a gentle lip scrub before applying your fave shade…especially long-wear.
This Soap & Glory Sugar Melting exfoliating balm is packed with Vitamin E and Shea Butter for soothing and fine sugar crystals for exfoliation. It’s purse friendly and a great stocking stuffer.
Now, lipstick! The Quo Under the Mistletoe Mini Lipstick Set | $20
Add some razzle dazzle to your holiday video calls with any of these sparkling shades. Dusted with a sheen even Swarovski would be jealous of, these bold shades will make a festive statement…I think perfect for New Years Eve or any damn day you want. We deserve ALL the sparkle this year!
Raisin lips be gone with this Burt’s Bees Beeswax Bounty Assorted Mix kit | $14.97
Burt’s Bees is a staple in my purse, kitchen drawer…and anywhere else I need hit of lip hydration. This Burt’s Bees Beeswax Bounty – assorted mix, has four super moisturizing lip balms in delish-flavoured tubes:
- Original Beeswax Moisturizing Lip Balm with Vitamin E and Peppermint
- Cucumber Mint Moisturizing Lip Balm
- Coconut Pear Moisturizing Lip Balm
- Vanilla Bean Moisturizing Lip Balm
I love these as they aren’t messy, you don’t have to use fingers to apply, they apply so smoothly and they aren’t overly glossy – so a totally appropriate unisex gift.
Finally, Quo’s Gloss and Go Lipgloss Set | $10
Wrapped in an ‘ode to Pat McGrath’ style, this three-pack of pinky glosses are phenomenal for the price. I love smaller sizes of gloss becasue in general, gloss is less sanitary as you are sticking the applicator right back into the formula after use…so smaller the better as less is potentially wasted.
But other than the practical – these shades are subtle, creamy and classic. Mix, match and pop some of the shimmer over top of the solid hues for a dramatic combo.
I hope the above Best Holiday Lip products will have you inspired to gift…or keep and be the most kissable pair of pouters around!
…and yes…I showcased a lot of Quo products here – not because this is a sponsored post, but because they are seriously great for the price and all come festively packaged, perfect for the holiday season.
