Since today is National Lipstick Day I’m rounding up Lipstick Day Deals AND sharing three lipsticks that provide the perfect amount of warmth to your lips and face, without overdoing it AND showing you my top lipstick picks right now.
PLUS I’m sharing some brands and stores to buy lipstick today at a discount.
National Lipstick Day Deals That Give Back
HUDA Beauty, the creator of National Lipstick Day, is urging their customers to donate to Doctor’s Without Borders during the current world pandemic.

Now Onto My Lipstick Picks
Back in February I did social media coverage for an International Women’s Day event being held at the Casino in Niagara Falls. The theme was Indigenous climate action and Autumn Peltier was the keynote speaker.
Because of the theme we had a number of Indigenous women from around Niagara and beyond attend to welcome Autumn into our community, Jenn Harper from Cheekbone Beauty was one of them.
I was lucky enough to be gifted the Autumn liquid lipstick, which is a beautiful cool toned true red. I applied it in the bathroom of the lower level casino floor and it was love at first swipe.
I couldn’t believe the application was so smooth, long-lasting, and the pigment was FANTASTIC. Jenn also loved it on me, so there’s that.

Following that day I knew Cheekbone needed to be a part of my makeup collection. So I waited for their summer line to come out but the colours all seemed so dark.
That’s when Lee Vosburg of Style Bee (love my fellow Canadian bloggers) tested the sustain lipstick and it looked light and so pretty on her, so I bought the bundle!
REVIEW
What colours do you get in the bundle?
- Askihk is a plumy rose
- Aki-red a true red
- Keyah is a peachy pink nude
Price?
The bundle is $96.00 but currently on sale for $76.00 CAD making each lipstick $25. That’s comparable to brands like MAC, Charlotte Tilbury, Fenty, NARS, TARTE, HUDA beauty, Bare Minerals and so many others.
Except they don’t have sustainable packaging (which costs more) and they don’t include incredible details in their packaging (which costs more). So take that into consideration.
Why is this set so special?
This set is the FIRST makeup in Canada that’s FULLY sustainable. From the packaging to the formula to the marketing, plus their Indigenous female owned. I don’t think there is a more unique product on the market.
For every purchase made, a portion goes to indigenous education.
What is the wear like?
The pigment is actually quite sheer unless you layer which is nice, the formula is really smooth and lasts.
I’ve swatched each lipstick in this IGTV video linked below for you to see exactly what each colour looks like on.

Sephora National Lipstick Day Deals
My go-to lipstick is always a nude, nudes are just so easy to wear because they’re daytime and evening appropriate. They’re also the easiest to take care of, if you smudge it’s barely noticeable. HECK YES.
Sephora is having a lipstick sale tomorrow for National Lipstick Day! Be sure to check it out HERE
My Favourites from The Sephora Sale
In shade Where My Peaches At With a really pretty bright orange red (think Allie from the Notebook) and fun peach print on the product, this is the perfect shade to wear into the dog days of summer.
In shade Poppy this beautiful red has hyaluronic acid to help plump and moisturize the lips. Plus this line comes in SO MANY SHADES!
This is basically the OG of lip balms. It’s amazing, it works, and honestly getting it for a deal is pretty great.
Some of My Favourites
Nude by Nature Satin Liquid Lipstick in Blush
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow
Fenty is also having a BOGO sale AND a Gloss Set for only $40 until July 29th
Cheekbone Beauty Sustain Lipstick in Keyah
