10 New Lipstick Launches To Get You Out Of That Winter Rut

Give your lips a spring awakening

We’re already a week into March, which means it’s almost spring, and we seriously could not be more excited. We, northeasterners, were teased with warm weather a few weeks back—only to be thrown straight back into the freezing tundra. (We’re definitely still sour about it.)

If there’s one thing that makes us happy and inspires us when we feel that we’re in a rut, it’s makeup. And what could be more exciting than new makeup—particularly lip color? We already rounded up our 35 favorite new spring launches for you, but there are more exciting lipsticks, glosses, and stains that just hit the shelves.  

We rounded up the 10 new products and shades that you’ll want to add to your makeup bag stat. Soon enough things will begin to once again warm up, the sun will stay out longer (daylight savings is this weekend, after all), and we’ll finally be able to bust out those spring culottes we bought back in January. Obviously, we're going to need a new lip color to pair them with.

The super-hydrating formula, vibrant pink shade, and gorgeous packaging are just what we need to lift our spirits (and keep our lips nice and soft).

Flirt Cosmetics, Lip Phetish Color Converting Lipstick in ‘Super pHresh,’ $18, available at Flirt Cosmetics.

Don’t be thrown off by the Pantone Color of the Year-esque shade of this new lip color from Flirt Cosmetics. The special pigment reacts to your lip’s natural pH to transform into the most gorgeous pink.

Anastasia Beverly Hills, Liquid Lipstick in ‘Stormy Lilac, $20, available at Anastasia Beverly Hills.

We’re all about incorporating pastels into our transitional wardrobe to help us burst out of a winter rut, but what about pastels on our lips? Anastasia Beverly Hills just launched six new shades of their liquid lipstick, and this lilac is the winner.

Marc Jacobs Beauty, Le Marc Liquid Lip Crème in ‘Light Buff,’ $28, available at Marc Jacobs Beauty.

Give your lips a refreshing satin sheen with this new liquid lip crème from Marc Jacobs. Your lips will stay looking plump and moisturized (it has collagen and Cupuacu butter in the formula), and this shade will pair perfectly with your sun-kissed glow to come.

Dior, Addict Lacquer Stick in 'Gamer,' $35, available at Dior.

We just got through a whole winter with liquid mattes, and now it's time to switch it up. These high-gloss status lacquer stick is packed with pigment and shine.

NARS, Velvet Matte Lip Color in ‘Get Off,’ $27, available at NARS.

NARS just launched 10 new shades of its cult Velvet Matte Lip Pencil, and this pinky beige is all we need to get us ready for spring.

Benefit, They’re Real! Double The Lip in ‘Flame Game,’ $20, available at Benefit.

We don’t know what has us more excited—this fiery orange lip shade, or the fact that each stick has a lipstick and a liner.

Guerlain, La Petite Robe Noire Universal Tinted Gel, Rosy Cheeks And Lips, $35, available at Sephora.

While this formula may look fluorescent pink out of the bottle (not that that’s an issue or anything), it transforms into a gorgeous sheer, rosy shade once applied to the skin—perfect to achieve that rosy spring glow. The best part? You can use it on your cheeks, too.

Bite Beauty, Prismatic Pearl Crème Gloss, $22, available at Sephora.

Prismatic, iridescent, shimmering lipgloss? That’s just what we need to rescue us from our drab winter beauty routine.

Topshop, Nude Lips in ‘Coven,’ $12, available at Topshop.

If you haven’t already noticed, nude lips are going to be major this spring. Topshop helps you break out of that vampy winter mode with this refreshing beigy-nude.
