Lip Colors That’ll Last Through Any Tailgate

By Maddy Zollo

Any true college football fan knows that the tailgate is (almost) just as important as the game itself. Beyond mouth-watering food spreads, festive décor, and plenty of traditions, football Saturday is also an excuse for Southerners to get dressed up. No matter if you’re at Alabama rocking pearls and a sundress or at LSU wearing a Tigers tank and cut-offs, your tailgate look isn’t complete without a painted pout. That’s why we’ve rounded up the latest long-lasting lip colors that will stay put through eating, drinking, and general Game Day merriment.

Lancome L’Absolu Lacquer Gloss

Neiman Marcus

It leaves lips with a luminous sheen that won’t fade off away after your first (or second) Bloody Mary of the day.
