The Perfect Red Lip | Budget Buy Red Lipsticks


I do love a red lip. I think you can wear a red lip with no accessories within an outfit and it instantly adds a dressed up look. In this post I want to share with you five of my favourite low budget red lipsticks. I think these lipsticks are affordable and ideal if you haven't ventured out to a bright red lip yet but want to try before you splash out on a more expensive brand. All these lipsticks are sold at great prices and are provide great quality. They provide a number of finishes, mostly matte, but are all affordable. First off is...

Rimmel Lasting Finish By Kate Lipstick in '110' 
This lipstick is a bright red with coral undertones. It provides a matte finish but is fairly creamy and is non- drying on the lips unlike other matte lipsticks can be. I think this would make an ideal first red lipstick for anyone who is wanting to try out a red lip. It also smells like sweeties which is an added bonus!

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in '660 In love with Ginger'
Another Rimmel lipstick- this lipstick provides great colour but with great moisturisation for the lips. It is a creamy formula with a slight sheen to it, but it doesn't lose it's vibrant red/orange colour. Once again it smells lovely!

L'oreal Color Riche Lipstick in 'Julianne's Pure Red'
I just want to make note of the lovely packaging of this lipstick. It has black casing but you probably can't notice from the photos, it actually has a delicate leopard print which I think makes it look more high end than it is. I love this lipstick. As soon as I applied it I was in love. I'd probably say this lipstick is more a classic red, with more pinky undertones compared to the above lipsticks which have more orangey/coral tones. The lipstick also provides a semi-matte finish.

MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquerer in 'Reckless'
A fairly recent purchase, but since using this lip product I have fallen in love - beautiful colour, easy application and extremely long lasting. Ticks all the boxes if you want a deep red, matte finish and long lasting red lip. Ideal for nights out so you don't have to keep applying all night.

MAC Lustre Lipstick in 'See Sheer'
One of my favourite lipsticks of all time- maybe not classed as low budget as the others but I love the quality of MAC lipsticks and this lipstick provides a sheen of red colour all over the lips. It is fairly long lasting considering it is a lustre and not a matte finish. I think this would also be an ideal lipstick to try first if you're not brave enough to sport a bright red lip just yet, as it provides you with a good wash of red colour without being too in your face. 

What are your favourite low end red lipsticks?
