Guest Post: Sam Rosen

Hi guys! Meet Sam from Sam Rosen, a fabulous Portland blogger friend of mine :) Love that she chose to blog about lipstick because I'm such a baby about wearing it and this made me want to go out and buy some! She has the best style ever, make sure you check out her blog, and thanks for sharing with me and my readers Sam!! xo


Hi Glitter & Grace friends! 
My name is Sam and I blog over here about fashion, food, love, and my life in Portland, Oregon. 
I am honored Sara asked me to guest post while she is visiting her BFF! 
I love hanging out with my girlfriends and one thing my best friend and I share is our love for lipstick.
I love trying new colors, but I know lipstick makes some people nervous so I want to share some of my favorite colors. 
Bear with me while I make my first attempt at being a lipstick model.. 


I had to be talked into this light pink color when I was getting my makeup done for my best friend's wedding, and then I bought it so I could re-apply that night. Now that I have it, I realize it is such a great basic! 

This is one of my favorite colors because it is so bright. Bright lips are one of my favorite ways to liven up an outfit or a dreary day {Portland weather--dreary}.
It makes me so happy to wear bright pink on my lips and it's a little more shocking in person. 
Use it to compliment your bright outfit, or add a pop of color to a neutral outfit and you're good to go.

Purple lips are a great trend this spring, and while I haven't tried lavender lips, this is such a great mix between the bright pink and a deep berry color. 

Everyone needs a good red lipstick {or stain}. 
I'm a big fan of wearing red lipstick any time of day, any day of the week. 

 What are some of your favorite lipsticks?
 Feel free to visit my blog at http://samantharosen.blogspot.com/ and let me know your favorites!

Thanks for having me Sara!

  1. Oh fun! I love this post. I'm trying to be more adventurous with lipstick but it can be so high maintenance to wear for a long period of time.
