* Make a statement this winter with gray lipstick
* Gray can give you an edgy yet unconventional look
* Maybelline, Mynena and Lime Crime
Gray lipstick used to be synonymous with Halloween, gothic looks and editorial layouts. Nowadays, with the advent of social media and bold stars like Rihanna and Halsey, dark, bold and unconventional lip colors have become the norm and cosmetics companies are listening.
Recently, Gigi Hadid was spotted out in New York City, fresh off of a Maybelline commercial shoot, sporting a gray lipstick that sparked a social media frenzy. When wearing a gray lip, it’s important to keep the rest of the makeup clean and minimal with fresh glowing skin and tons of mascara.
1. Sinful Stone
Maybelline’s Vivid Matte Liquid Lip collection is the cosmetics’ giant latest offering for lips. The company has released 10 new shades for the season with bold colors of warm auburns, vibrant berries and stone greys all in their unique creamy velvet finish. Since Gigi is a spokesperson for the brand, it is rumored that Sinful Stone is the exact color worn on her lips. Get it before its gone.
2. Alvira
Our next gray lippie is the Mynena Matte Liquid Lipstick in Alvira. This lipstick has a velvet matte, full coverage tone with just one application. It’s waterproof and transfer resistant. The formula contains Vitamin E to hydrate and helps keep the lipstick on without drying out your lips. Mynena matte lipsticks are made from herbs and minerals; they are vegan and cruelty-free.
3. Cement
Lime Crime Velvetines Liquid Matte Lipsticks have a true following. One of the first brands on the market to come out with a liquid lipstick, they are known for their longevity, high-quality and unique color range. Their gray option in Cement is a cool grey lip stain that is touch-proof, transfer-proof and most importantly, comfortable on the lips.
