My FAV 7 Budget Friendly LIPSTICKS || Nudes and Roses

*not a sponsored blogpost

We're all fond of lippies and probably none other than us- 'The Girls' understand how different each shade is from one another no matter how similar they look on the palette. Hit a try from my favourites this spring !

I've been a matte lipstick person since I joined college . My shades are generally nudes and classic roses. I don't even remember using lipsticks anywhere before college life. Here is my list of 7 lip colors I've been immensely in love with, which will create the perfect rossette vibe to your spring outfit.

MAYBELLINE NEW YORK - MIDTOWN PINK

Starting with my most lovable shade - this creamy matte formula is the perfect nude for my skincolor. I can't be more happy when I have this pretty shade on. Also it has a warm sweet fragrance which won't vex sensitive noses.

Texture is really lovely and it never dries out my lips.

Staying power : 6-7 hours (re-application required after meals).

Price : INR 299

LAKME 9To5 - PINK BUREAU

This one is more of a blush pink shade providing quite great coverage. The only con about this range is it constitutes glitter particles which shows up if u over apply the lipcolor. I prefer using a dash of this product followed by blending in with my bare fingers which gives more of a natural flushed look.

Texture is smooth and doesn't give a worn out look.

Staying power : 4-5 hours (re-application required after meals).

Price : INR 500

MAYBELLINE NEW YORK - COSMOPOLITAN RED

This has been my first red lippie. I love its fragrance which is sweet warm vanilla notes. This shade had a great staying power and barely comes off after meals but may smudge a little around the corners which needs to be touched up. I was unsure for this bold shade but it will bloom on fair-medium skintone without any doubt.

Staying power : 6-7 hours

Price : INR 299

LOREAL PARIS COLOR RICHE - BLUSHING BERRY

This one is not a matte texture but more of a satin lipstick. Being a mid-deep berry shade, it look gorgeous and classy when worn with minimalistic neutral outfits. It's extremely buttery but not at all transfer proof.

Now I don't know if this shade is easily available in India since this one is from the US but I've mentioned a link you can check out for its import in India.

Staying power : 2-3 hours

Price : INR 1900

FACES CANADA - MAROON LOVE

If you're a maroon lover , this product is for you. Basic maroon shade having ultra matte finish with decent stay power at such a price is wonders. This lipstick can be drying to some so proper moisturisation of lip is highly recommended before application.

Staying power : 4-5 hours ( re-application required after meals)

Price : INR 299

MAYBELLINE NEW YORK - EAST VILLAGE ROSE

It's hard to describe this beautiful shade which probably makes it a unique shade to your collection. It is a dried rose hue blended with hints of muted deep tangerine. It gives a classic spiced look which instantly brightens a fair-medium skintone.

Staying power : 6-7 hours

Price : INR 299

MINISO FLAWLESS MATTE - TEA ROSE

I'm not much of a liquid lipstick fan but this pretty shade caught my eye in the super cute MINISO store so couldn't resist from purchasing it. It's this lovely rosy shade having a smooth creamy texture which you would love to throw on for everyday work . Thou there are some cons which makes it not the best choice for everyday work wear - it's staying power is below average and isn't tranfer proof.

Staying power : 1-2 hours ( re-application required after meals )

Price : INR 199
