Our twenties are haphazard, fun, mistake-ridden, chaotic and reckless. From messy buns to constantly being broke and making amazing friendships – we need a solid lipstick collection to get us through the most awesome decade of our lives. As Elizabeth Taylor said, “Pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick and pull yourself together” – it’s pretty much the motto we live by! So we present to you the lipsticks that every 20-something girl should have to help you stay fabulous amidst the chaos!
1. A Pastel Pink Pick-Me-Up
A shade like this is girly and gorgeous, perfect for the times when you want to add a dash of pretty to just about anything you wear. It goes just as amazingly with a fringed skater dress and a bralette for your Coachella-phase as it does with a simple tee and jeans look.
