Winter makeup always inspires me to lean into soft pinks, glossy finishes, and that fresh “cold girl” look.

After a lot of trial and error, I finally landed on a lip combo that feels cozy, polished, and perfect for the colder months. It’s simple, flattering, and easy to wear every day!

1. Sephora Collection Outrageous Plumping Lip Gloss

This gloss instantly caught my attention because the shade is such a clean, true pink. It brightens the lips without looking overpowering, which makes it ideal for winter makeup. The finish is shiny and smooth, giving that glassy look I love. While the plumping effect isn’t dramatic, it does leave a cool, tingling sensation that feels refreshing. No wonder this shade has been everywhere lately—it really gives that soft, rosy lip effect people are obsessed with.

2. NYX Cosmetics Lip Pencil

This shade looks warm at first glance, but once applied, it blends beautifully with my natural lip color. It defines the lips without taking away from the gloss and works perfectly for subtle overlining. I also shared a tutorial on how I apply it, since this liner makes shaping the lips so easy.

This lip combo has quickly become my winter favorite. It pairs beautifully with blush-heavy makeup and cozy cold-weather looks. I’d love to know—what’s your favorite winter lip combo?
