When the
seasons change from summer to fall, it makes sense that you’d introduce
new pieces of clothing into your wardrobe to prepare for the upcoming
cooler weather. The same thought process can be applied to your makeup, especially your lipstick.
The vivid colors you applied all summer long likely aren’t quite right
for fall, and that’s the ideal excuse to start shopping for a few new
shades. If you aren’t exactly sure what constitutes a summer color and
what works better for fall, we have you covered. Here are the 10 best
lipstick shades to wear in fall 2017.
[post_ads_2]#1: Fire Engine Red
Let’s be real, red lips
are a classic—no matter the season. That means come fall, there’s no
reason to put your favorite reds on the back burner. Reach for a true
red (leaving shades with orange undertones in summer) and coat your lips
in a crimson hue.

#2: Deep Wine
A glass of wine (if you’re of age, of
course) by the fireplace is a totally typical fall experience, and it
just so happens to translate perfectly onto your lips. Swiping on a deep
wine makes for a striking look that’s dark but still wearable.

#3: Bold Berry
Branching out from your basic pinks and
reds (we love those, too!) can be intimidating, but fall is the perfect
time to make a change. Whether you’re heading back to school or just
going with the shift in the seasons, a berry lip
is a smart next move. A bright berry shade lets you mix up your
everyday makeup look without straying too far from your comfort zone.
[post_ads_2]#4: MLBB
Not sure what “MLBB” could possibly
stand for? Allow us to explain. The acronym means “my lips but better,”
which refers to lipstick shades that are close to your natural lip hue.
It’s clear why these much-loved colors were discussed so often that they
received an abbreviation. Look for shades similar to your own lips, but
slightly pinker and you’ll surely understand the hype.

#5: Burgundy
When you think of autumnal shades,
burgundy likely tops the list. While you surely apply that knowledge to
fall décor and dresses, don’t forget to give your lips the same
treatment.

#6: Burnt Peach
Peaches may be in season during the
summer, but that shouldn’t stop you from carrying the color over into
fall. Instead of continuing to rock lighter or brighter peach pigments,
stick with dark, burnt peach lippies. By deepening the fruity hue a tiny
bit, you’re instantly ready for fall.

#7: Taupe
There’s nothing tricky about pulling
off taupe lips. While the grayish brown color may not be your obvious
first choice, it surprisingly suits just about everyone. Plus, as the
weather starts to chill out, a lipstick with grayer tones will match the
atmosphere.

#8: ‘90s Brown
Fashion seems to be stuck in the ‘90s
lately, so why shouldn’t your lipstick shade be there, too? Brown lips
are making a comeback, and just in time for fall. Swipe on a mid-toned
brown for a look that’s anything but boring.

#9: Soft Nude
Honestly, you just can’t go wrong with a nude lipstick.
We sport nude shades all year long, no matter the season, and so should
you. As the seasons transition, gravitate towards a nude that’s soft
and subtle—all the qualities of a perfect go-to lip color.

#10: Metallic Anything
Metallic makeup
is as trendy as ever, and that doesn’t look like it will be stopping
anytime soon. That means if you haven’t hopped on the bandwagon just
yet, you aren’t too late. Pick out a metallic color you love and lacquer
up your lips for a heavy metal look. If you aren’t happy with metallic
makeup marking only your lips, check out our article on wearing metallic eye shadow, too.
