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?
Charlotte Tilbury honestly has some of the best lip game in town -- their products are pricey, but worth it. This lip kit comes with three components: a Lip Cheat pencil in Pillow Talk, a K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick in Velvet Underground, and a Lip Lustre gloss in Candy Darling. The kit comes in a ton of different themes as well, which is cool -- the one pictured here is The Glamour Muse Lip Kit, and it also comes in fun trios like Golden Goddess, Hot Lips, Uptown Girl, and more.
L'Oreal Smoking Nudes By Kristina Bazan Lip Kit, $11.50
Looks like the drugstore aisle's getting in on the lip kit fun too these days! L'Oreal's Smoking Nudes by Kristina Bazan Lip Kit is perfectly equipped with a pinky nude lip pencil, as well as a matching lipstick in a slightly rosier shade. It's superflattering for a sophisticated, polished look -- and is quite a steal to boot.
Make Up For Ever Artistic Lip Ink and Brush Set, $40
This luxurious limited edition lip kit is for all the gourmands out there: It houses one of Make Up For Ever's ultra-pigmented lip inks in a drop dead gorgeous matte siren red, as well as an ultra-precise brush to create a flawless lip line with. It's definitely something of a glamorous lip kit, what with the artsy tin it comes in, the calligraphy-style brush, as well as the tiny fancy lip ink itself.
Clinique's limited edition lip kit comes with two Almost Lipsticks and two Sweet Pots -- and it's worth noting that the Sweet Pots are a two-in-one product (each one comes with a lip scrub and a tinted balm), so it's almost like this lip kit comes armed with six products instead of four. It features two universally flattering shades -- the cult-favorite Black Honey, as well as equally sweet Pink Honey. This one's great for keeping your lips in tip-top condition, what with the balms, exfoliating scrubs and comfortably lightweight and hydrating lipsticks.
