Bliss in blue and magenta.

There’s absolutely nothing more empowering than the perfect lipstick.
Whether you gravitate towards brights, prefer nudes, or stick to classic reds, a swipe of color will boost your confidence and make you feel twice as put together, which is why Nicka K New York’s Hydro Lipsticks are my latest obsession!
Super hydrating, long-lasting, and paraben free, this line is just as good (if not better), than any brand you’ll find at Sephora. Made with jojoba oil, the formula goes on easy and feels light, even though the color pay-off is killer.
Plus, the Hydro Lipstick really is long-wear! Mine lasts through water bottle sips, several cups of coffee, and lunch. I now, of course, own a tube in almost every color.
BB5 Tip: Don’t let “imperfections” come between you and a fabulous lip.
Stop obsessing and show off that pretty smile!
I wasn’t always a lipstick fanatic. My teeth aren’t perfectly straight, so for a long time I tried to avoid bringing attention to my lips, even though they’re lovely and my smile takes up roughly half my face. I started wearing lipstick regularly after I graduated college and now I can’t believe I wasted for much time living without my bright pinks and purples.
You can buy six of our favorite Nicka K New York Hydo Lipstick shades from our shop for just $4.99. (Yeah, that’s right– you could buy all six shades and feel guilt-free!)
Need help picking out a shade? I’d love to help! If you want a little guidance, feel free to snap a picture, then tag us on Twitter or Instagram and use #shadesofbeauty!
