11 Drugstore Lipsticks that we think are awesome!

 

Most matte lipsticks can be tricky to work with, and tough to find that perfect match. They tend to be drying and rough, leaving you with flakey, patchy lips. So not cute. And, while glossy lips are great and everything, there’s just something about a bold, matte lip that makes a statement that truly can’t be beat. Pair it with anything from a smokey eye to bare lashes and it brings an edge to a look that gloss just can’t compete with. But is it really worth all that dryness and peeling? Well luckily you don’t have to choose anymore! We’ve handpicked our favorite hydrating (and totally affordable!) drugstore matte lipsticks so you can rock that matte look sans flake.
Revlon

Revlon Lipstick
We love rocking flirty, full lashes with a bright lip for a simple, eye-catching look. It’s easy, quick and totally chic when paired with the right lip color. This bright matte pink shade is ultra pigmented and looks stunning on any skin tone (score!). Just don’t forget to prep your lips with lip balm before applying to avoid any unnecessary dryness. (Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick in ” Stormy Pink,” $7.99, drugstore.com)

 

Wet n Wild

If you’re anything like us and feel like you need a million different shades of lipstick, these Wet n Wild lipsticks are totally up your alley. Retailing for under $3, these super pigmented, matte lipsticks are a steal! We love this flattering nude paired with a sultry smokey eye for a night out. (Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color in “Bare It All,” $2.99, drugstore.com)

NYX

Though not technically a “lipstick,” NXY’s Matte Lip Creams are the newest generation of lip products. Combining the pigment of a lipstick and the hydration of a gloss, these moisturizing lip creams are available in 22 (yep, 22!) different shades. The doe foot applicator makes applying this gorgeous fuchsia color easy for bold, full lips. (NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in “Addis Ababa,” $6, nyxcosmetics.com)

 

Milani

Luckily with Milani’s Moisture Matte Lipsticks, you don’t have to worry about that. This budge-proof formula is available in eight stunning shades (we’re obsessed with this orange-y red!) and is infused with grapeseed extract for a moisturizing matte lipstick that’ll last all day.

These e.l.f Matte Lip Colors are perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. Packaged as super convenient twist-up pencils, these opaque lip colors can be used as both liners and lipsticks.

Sonia Kashuk

sonia Lipstick
Though less pigmented than the latter, these Sonia Kashuk Velvety Matte Lip Crayons are intensely conditioning and ensure glide-on perfection with every use. The tip is slightly thicker, making it tricky to use as a liner but perfect for filling in lips or even layering over another lip color for added sheen. This coral shade screams summer and would look stunning against sun-kissed skin! (Sonia Kashuk Velvety Matte Lip Crayon in “Coraly Nude,” $7.59, target.com)
