Day 1, NARS
This is sure to be an instant cult classic. More of a maroon than burgundy, it has a super-rich finish from only one swipe.
Day 2, Guerlain
Guerlain KissKiss Shaping Lip Color in Orange Fizz, $37
I'm not ready to give up summer's bright, glossy tints yet—and who says I have to with fresh options like this tomato tint?
Day 3, MAC
MAC Lipstick Viva Glam Miley Cyrus II, $17
Honestly, this is the lipstick Kendall Jenner wishes she made. It's a matte bright orange, long-lasting and doesn't dry out.
Day 4, Tom Ford
Tom Ford Lip Color in Guilty Pleasure, $52
According to some: '90s makeup is staging a comeback. I'm still skeptical about that but I will admit this is one frosty nude I didn't dislike.
Day 5, Dior
Dior 'Rouge Dior' Lipstick in 956 Unique, $35
So glossy and moist you'd swear this was a super-saturated lip balm. It's like your favorite Pinot Noir in a tube.
Day 6, Chanel
Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lip Colour in 43 La Favorite, $36
Forget what ya heard! Fall lipsticks don't have to be all dark and moody. This coral totally complemented my army green ensemble.
Day 7, Estée Lauder
Estée Lauder 'Pure Color Envy' Matte Sculpting Lipstick in Stronger, $30
Oh man, this one was a doozie. All I can say is: It's got more sass than any power suit I own, that's for sure.
Day 8, Charlotte Tilbury
Charlotte Tilbury Luminous Modern Matte Lipstick in Red Carpet Red, $32
This red is so utterly gorgeous it was really hard for me not to put it back on the next day…And the next day after that, and the next day after that—you get the point.
Day 9, Revlon
Revlon ColorBurst Matte Lip Balm in Passionate, $8
This is like a party-fuchsia that's been turned down to be office-level loud. Meaning appropriate but not boring.
Day 10, Burberry
Burberry Kisses Sheer Lip Colour in Nude Beige, $33
Nudes can be like foundation: Impossible to find a perfect match. But this color is really glossy so it blends into your natural lip color (rather than just sitting on top) creating a tint that actually fits my skin tone.
Day 11, Clarins
Clarins 'Jolie Rouge' Lipstick in 711 Papaya, $23
A subtle tropical coral-orange, this lipstick perked up my complexion and mood after I swiped it on.
Day 12, Lipstick Queen
Lipstick Queen in Whoppee Spot, available in October
Lupita Nyong'o I was not. But it was kind of fun to really go for it with this purple tint.
Day 13, Tom Ford
Tom Ford Lip Color in Dark and Stormy, $52
Look no further: I've found the perfect dark lipstick. Seriously guys: This is color is a must.
Day 14, Urban Decay
Urban Decay Matte Revolution Lipstick in Temper, $22
The healthy balance of a bold brick red that's not overly bright.
Day 15, Givenchy
Givenchy Le Rouge-A-Porter in 301 Vermillion Creation, $36
This was so sheer I felt like I was wearing rose-tinted lip balm, which was a nice break from the heavier mattes.
Day 16, Lancôme
Lancôme Color Design Matte Lip Crayon in Drive to Pink, $24
This is easily the most aggressive pink I've ever worn—and I kind of loved it. Think: Neon with slight magenta undertones.
Day 17, Chanel
Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip Color in 99 Pirate, $36
I wore this with a polka dot dress and felt like Minnie Mouse all day—and I mean that in a good way. Like the double C's brand itself, it's a classic.
Day 18, CoverGirl
CoverGirl Outlast Longwear + Moisture Lipstick in 930 Pink Shock, $8
I like pinks that are so close to red you have to do a double take and that's exactly what this color is: A perfect almost red.
Day 19, MAC
MAC Mineralize Rich Lipstick in Nose for Style, $23
I'd call this a muted mulberry, or fall darks for beginners.
Day 20, Tom Ford
Tom Ford Lip Color in Lilac, $52
I feel like Tom Ford totally had Nicki Minaj in mind when he created this hue.
Day 21, Charlotte Tilbury
Charlotte Tilbury Luminous Modern Matte Lipstick in Lost Cherry, $32
Full disclosure: I'm completely obsessed with all Charlotte Tilbury makeup. But if I had to pick a favorite from her latest collection, this super overly ripe cherry color is definitely in the running.
Day 22, Charlotte Tilbury
Charlotte Tilbury Luminous Modern Matte Lipstick in Love Liberty, $32
Like I said: I'm obsessed. So I also had to try out a bright tint from CT, and was not disappointed by this fresh raspberry one.
Day 23, Guerlain
Guerlain KissKiss Shaping Lip Cream Color in Lady Pink, $37
I feel like J.Lo would appreciate this tint because I ended up liking the color more when I paired it with ultra-bronzey, glowy makeup.
Day 24, MAC
MAC Brooke Candy Collection Lipstick in Mind Control, $17
You can never have too much red lipstick so don't mind me while I add this Snow White one to my collection.
