I have a confession – my lipstick obsession knows no bounds! It’s the one beauty must-have I never leave the home without, a habit that’s stuck with me for years.
It all started as a kid, raiding my mom’s lipstick stash with my sister for dress-up fun, trying every shade imaginable. That playful spark turned into a lifelong love, and now I’m sharing my top gems – from drugstore steals to luxe hues over $50 that feel like a dreamy splurge.
NOTE: These shade recommendations come from a brown-skinned girly, but the quality shines for all!
