Whatever the occasion, there’s one thing that can instantly transform your look and boost your confidence: a beautiful, impactful lip colour. But if you suffer from dry lips, you might want to skip the matte and velvet colours and opt for one of the best moisturising lipsticks. But before we talk about colour, we can’t stress enough the importance of lip care, especially in London and New York, where the weather can take a toll on your skin. A moisturising lipstick not only completes your look, but also provides the essential hydration to prevent dryness, cracking and flaking. Formulated with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, vitamin E and natural oils, it keeps your lips soft, supple (kissworthy) and cared for while adding colour.
To help your lip color last longer, gently exfoliate your lips before application to remove dead skin cells and increase smoothness. Plus, applying a lip balm (lots!) or treatment as a base will create the perfect canvas for your lipstick and provide optimal hydration. Your lips will thank you! Read on for our picks of the best hydrating lipsticks you can buy right now.
