Five Amazing Deep Red Matte Lipsticks And Shiny Reds To Choose From DRUGSTORE
1. L’Oreal Pop Balm – “Fiery Red 430″ (Sheer tinted balm)
One of the best drugstore red lipsticks so far, the L’Oreal Pop Balm – “Fiery Red 430″ (Sheer tinted balm) is a mix of luscious red hints, kissable tones and smoothening touches for the lips, and stays for eight hours without drying your lips.

Amongst the many drugstore red lipsticks we reviewed, our eyes caught fancy to the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick – “Love That Red 725” (Creme), and here’s why! This is a lipstick that promises to stay, and it stays for long. It has the Exclusive LiquiSilk™ formula and is enriched with plenty of mega moisturizers that helps keep the lips soft, supple and smooth for a very long time. The color is easily sealed into the lips and doesn’t look artificial or cakey, and evenly wears itself on the lips too.
3. Milani Color Statement Lipstick – “Ruby Valentine 08” (Cream)
We call this one ‘the perfect red lipstick’. One wouldn’t want to doubt the tag on the Milani Color Statement Lipstick – “Ruby Valentine 08” (Cream), we just bestowed because who doesn’t want a one touch and stroke application? Call it the GEN Y lipstick if you may, the ultimate color it provides blows our minds off. You have to check the finish to be assured off and also the texture and color too, and the lightweight creamy formula which is embossed with vitamins. You get it in matte and vinyl shades, and be assured there are no parabens used in its making!
