Laura Mercier Limited Edition Iconic Leading Lady, $38
This year, Laura Mercier is celebrating 20 years of business, and they're doing it in style. They've created three lip kits, inspired by three iconic stars: Catherine Deneuve, Sophia Loren and Vivien Leigh (nude, rose, and red, respectively). Each limited edition duo pairs a matte Velour Lovers Lip Colour along with a matching Lip Glacé for an optional shiny finish.
If you're looking for a last-minute birthday present for one of your friends (or even yourself), look no further than this tiny adorable lip/cheek duo. It combines a pint-sized Melted Lipstick in Peony with an equally pint-sized (and heart-shaped!) Love Flush Blush in Justify My Love for the tiniest, cutest lip and cheek kit ever. It's limited edition, so stock up now.
Here's another lip and cheek duo with packaging that's just as cute (if not cuter) than Too Faced's adorable offerings. In fact, this little lip kit is so darn cute that you could basically buy it for the packaging alone (just think how nice it would look on your vanity). Plus, the two shades of coral reds complement each other perfectly as well, making this a legitimately great little duo.
Really looking to take your lip game to the next level? Lime Crime has a few amazing lip duos to really make your lipstick into an art form. Each kit pairs a matte Velvetine lipstick with a metallic Perlees lipstick, combining two gorgeous finishes in matching shades. You can either wear them together or apart, and either way you're sure to look pretty darn fab.
Most of the lip kits in this list combine various forms of gloss, pencil, and lipstick -- and by those standards, this Napoleon Perdis set is quite unique. It houses a nude lipstick, as well as a powder in the same shade, and get this: You can add a layer of the powder over the lipstick for a matte, long-lasting finish. It's basically the opposite of the kits where you layer a gloss over the matte lip cream. Pretty cool, right?
