Hey You!

We all have that constant dilemma while we shop about having a GO TO lippie. Today’s post is just what you need. I have put together 7 lip shades that will look great on most desi skin tones. I know not everyone prefers wearing bright shades, neither do I. So, today’s post is a combination of nudes and pinks.
Let’s dig in.

     1.     Nykaa – 12M (Taupe Thrill)
A recent buy and I am already in love with it . One swipe and you get an opaque application. The wear is very comfortable and is a satin-ish finish although it states to be matte. It lasts for a good 4-5 hours and then fades leaving an even stain on your lips. Great for everyday wear.
Retails for: Rs 399



     2.    Revlon Matte Balm- Sultry  225
This is a cult lipstick. It’s present in almost every girl’s kit. Its a very subtle pink mauve that gives you the ‘my lips but better’ look.
Retails for: Rs 800


     3.    Nykaa-11M (Naughty Nude)
Also a recent buy, however it is more on the pink based nude. There is a pinkish undertone to this lip color.
Retails for: Rs 399


     4.    H&M Beauty- 005 (Rust Me)
If you haven’t checked out H&M’s cosmetic line you should! Click here to view a complete review of the products. As the name states this color is more inclined on the rustic brown side. Great for dusky skinned girls.


      5.    Maxfactor-350
This is my FAVORITE. The liquid lipstick comes with a doe foot applicator which makes the application super easy. The lipstick stays on for forever: P it can get a little drying on the lips so, moisturize your lips well beforehand.
Retails for: Rs 1050


     6.    Mikyajy-302
A great lip color for everyday wear. A preppy natural pink, that compliments every skin color. A very moisturizing formula but, requires reapplication every hour.


     7.     Lakme 9to5-Rose Touch
This comes in the lakme 9to5 weightless mousse range. This works as lip and cheek stain. They have a few other colors in this range as well but all come in similar packaging so you will have to look for the shades name to differentiate. This color is a nude shade with purple undertones and is great on the lips. Very moisturizing and stays on well.
Retails for: Rs 450


These lipsticks are the absolute best and can be your go to lip shades regardless of the occasion.

P.S: I did plan to show the swatches as well but, my hand just won’t be pretty for the camera: P.

Until next time
Polý agape (lots of love) and stay cheerful :)
