Welcome to my blog "Beauty with Soumya". Red lipsticks are the most versatile shade which can brighten any look. If you are running late and do not have time to do whole lot of makeup you can just apply minimal makeup with red statement lips and you are done. This is the shade that suits every skintone out there and easily available in every lipstick range.
But there are a lot of shades of red lipsticks and you should figure out which will suit your skintone the best and complement your look. So, in this blog I am going to show you different shades of red lipsticks which are easily available online and in stores with swatches on my medium skintone, also I am going to tell you right shade for your skintone.
Every lipstick shown below is comfortable to wear and do not accentuate fine lines on the lips.
I am going to show lipsticks in decreasing order of prices. So, let's start
1) Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink Lipstick- Voyager :
- Price- INR 650 but grab it on sale for 450- 500 easily.
- Maybelline superstay matte ink lipstick in the shade voyager is a wine burgundy shade suitable for every skintone. It will look gorgeous on medium to deeper skintones and give a dark lips look for fair skintone but still look very beautiful.
- These are famous for their longetivity. they claim that lipstick remains for 16 hours. I have never checked them for 16 hours but they will easily last you throughout the day. After very oily food you need to touch up your lips just on the insides of lip as layering them up can make you feel heavy.
- These are highly pigmented and non-drying but after few hours can make your lips dry so I will suggest to apply lip balm.
- It takes quite a time to become dry so do not stick your lips until wet otherwise it comes patchy, apply an even coat for smooth finish.
- It feels a bit sticky.
This is my go to lipstick for parties or whenever I am going to eat a lot, or when I want to make a bold statement lips this is the one.

2) Blue Heaven Elegance Matte Lip Color- 01:
- Price- INR 105, sale price- INR 85
- It is an orange toned red lipstick. It will complement fair to medium skintones but can be wore by anyone as it will not wash you out. It looks great in day time.
- It has a thin consistency and settles into a complete matte lipstick within 30 seconds. It is transfer proof but transfers after eating or drinking anything. so dab on the tissue after that or you can reapply. It cannot stand heavy meals
- blue heaven elegance matte lip color 01 is highly pigmented and non drying but I will suggest to use a lip balm underneath
- lasts upto 6 hours, this range is excellent choice in a budget but different colors perform differently so choose wisely
