Christmas is coming up so quickly and nothing says “CHRISTMAS” quite like a red lip.  The holiday season calls for your favorite red lipstick to ring in the festivities, these are my top 5 red shades.

L’Oreal Blake’s Red– This is a stunning true red lipstick with a semi-matte finish and a comfortable feel on the lips.  Also this shade was created with Blake Lively and she’s basically a goddess.

ELF Matte Lip Color in Rich Red– This twist up crayon never lets me down with its blue-red tone and built-in sharpener.  This is so easy to throw in my bag for touch-ups throughout the day.

Revlon Colorburst in Provocative– This is a shiny true red that was one of my first favorite red shades.  Although this isn’t long-wearing, the shade is such a gorgeous true red.

Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip in Creeper– This is one of my least blue-toned red shades, it is a lot less cool compared to my other shades.  This formula lasts all day and you won’t have to worry about it transferring onto your glass all night.

Nars Velvet Matte Lip Crayon in Cruella– This is one of my most-worn red lip colors.  I love the texture of Nars Velvet Matte because they are literally the least tacky lip product you’ll find, the best formula to have every color of.  This shade is a cult-classic shade, being a dark blue-toned red.
