Hey Everyone today I am talking about Top 12 Lipsticks Under 1000,
Being a lipstick junkie I keep collecting a lot of lip shades obviously. This time, when I decided to purge and reorganise my collection, I realised that there were a few shades I am never able to part ways with…..like I am truly, madly, deeply in love with them types… (happens right?). That left me with the idea of sharing them with you guys. So in today’s post, I have sorted out a few drugstore options all under 1000. Some of these are from the permanent range so they are still available, for the ones that have been discontinued, I have found out close dupes because my stash is never complete without these shades. Oh, and if you are confused about the hashtag in the title, that’s because the lipsticks mentioned in this post are not new launches, these are some of the classic drugstore lipsticks.
These are my Top 12 lipsticks for Indian Skin tones, all under Rs.1000/- . All these shades can be pulled off anytime, any season and anywhere. These are like no-brainers, when it comes to picking up everyday lipsticks that are affordable too. I haven’t added bright and bold colours in this post because I will do a separate compilation for them.
1. Revlon – Rosy Nude
This is a very beautiful earthy pink shade. A perfect everyday shade as it goes with everything and will suit all skin tones. It’s that perfect MLBB shade for me, the formula is comfortable, creamy, moisturising and quite pigmented.
Price: Rs.580/- Buy Online
2. Lakme Enrich Satin – 145
Another neutral shade. It’s brown with slight orange and pink undertones to it. Looks stunning when paired with heavily kohled eyes. When in doubt, I just use this shade and voila, I am ready. Sadly I am not able to find this shade anymore but the new Lakme enrich matte BM11 is pretty close and I like matte formulas so no regrets.
Price: Rs.295/- Buy Online Lakme Absolute Gloss Addict – Nude Glow
3. Lakme Absolute Gloss Addict – Nude Glow
This is a very sheer glossy lipstick. It’s a nude with peach tones to it. The pigmentation is not that great since the shade is super light but it’s perfect for days when you don’t want too much of color on your lips or you can even use this over any other lip color for a glossy pout. The formula is quite moisturising.
Price: Rs.800/- Buy Online
4. Maybelline Colorsensational – Coral Pink
This shade was popular as a dupe of Mac Crosswires. While I did not feel the same, I quite liked the shade. It’s a bright coral pink shade as the name aptly describes. A close dupe is Maybelline Pink Alert Lipstick in Pow 4
Price: Rs450/- buy online
5. Maybelline Colorsensational – Coral Lustre
I had bought this when the coral craze had struck me so hard that I wanted to buy every coral lipper available in the market. The Color Show Orange Icon is a very close dupe. It looks like a stark orange in the bullet but on the lips, it looks similar to what Coral Lustre used to be.
Price: Rs.299/- buy online
6. L’Oreal Intense Color Riche – Pink Passion
A Pink shade with hints of coral and a touch of neon. This shade tends to wash out darker complexions but looks stunning on medium fair to fair tones. The formula is also comfortable and I use this a lot when I want my lipstick to pop yet not being too dark or in the face.
Price: Rs.899/- Buy Online
7. L’Oreal Nutri Shine Lipstick – Shiny Apricot
A sheer glossy formula which is very hydrating, comfortable and gives shiny luscious lips. The shade is deep orange with golden shimmer. The color looks powerful in the bullet but it goes sheer on the lips. It does not provide an opaque coverage but looks stunning on its own or when layered over a complementing lip shade.
Price: Rs845 Buy online or a similar shade isL’Oreal Balmy Gloss in Passion Fruit Perfect for Rs.475/- Online
8. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick – Chacha Cherry
A watermelon pink that perks up the complexion in just one swipe. the formula is very creamy and moisturizing. The pigmentation is great and the staying power is 3-4 for hours being creamy in texture.
Price: Rs.599/- Buy Online
9. Maxfactor Colour Elixir – Eternal Flame
A pink shade with a hint of neon that makes it look slightly bright. It with be a perfect pink shade for most Indian skin tones. The formula is pigmented, creamy but not very long lasting.
Price: Rs. 670/- available at Maxfactor counters
10. ColorBar Ultimate 8 hours Lipstick – French Pink
A dirty pink matte shade which is quite unique. Check out the complete review here
Price: Rs.900/- Buy online
11. Maybelline Color Show Matte Lipstick – Pop Of Pink
This again is a dirty pink matte shade but it’s slightly darker than the Colorbar French Pink and I use it quite frequently during days when I want a pink shade that is not too bright but not too deep (makes sense?)
Price: Rs.325/- Buy online
12. Revlon Plumsexxxy Lipcolor – Rose Passion
This is again a deep pink with a slight hint of coral and some rusty notes. The shade illuminates the face instantly but it makes no sense going ahead with the description because this as been discontinued and I am yet to find a dupe. I am mentioning it because my hunt for this shade is on and I will update it here as soon as I find it. This has to be on top of my list, it’s that unique.
Price: Rs.575/-
