I have a confession: as much as I love makeup, I’m terrible at remembering to wear it. Which, as a beauty editor, doesn’t exactly feel on brand. Lipstick, in particular, is where I fall short—I might apply it at the start of the day (on a good day), then forget it exists for the next 12 hours.
Which is why lip contour sticks have surprised me. Not only do I reach for them instinctively, I keep reapplying them. Whether lining the lips (and giving them added volume or natural-looking definition) or adding colour like a lipstick, they've quickly become a staple in my makeup bag.
