My Current Favorite Drugstore Coral | Orange Lipsticks


A quick post on 5 affordable drugstore / high street lipsticks I love using for summer to match my tan. You know I love orange / coral lips :) 
Besides jumping right into the picture, I dont think I could write better than "This is my favourite coral lipstick with a tad of pink coral undertone" wtf okay just kidding I will try my best la. 3 of out 5 lipsticks are from Revlon, as I mention in the video, makes my favorite formula of drugstore lipsticks. first off - 
Revlon 674 Coral Berry | A creme (cream?) coral with a heavy pink undertone.  It transfer more coral than pink on the lips. Nice formula and instantly brightens the complexion without overdoing it. 
Revlon 750 Kiss Me Coral | One of the brightest colors I ever owned. The picture doesn't even adjust. A true orange that would make a statement. A great option to replace the classic red when I dont want that formalness for a night out. Worn in this look (HERE)
Revlon 628 Peach Me | As I consider, a very opaque but mild coral. Its my to-go lip color for the summer. On the lips the pink tone has almost completely gone, left alone the orange. I find it really nice to go with all the whites, pastels and minty colors I wear in the summer.
Revlon Colorburst lipstick in Peach | The texture is very pastel-y a la very opaque. Again, the picture doesn't adjust. Its bright coral without being over the top. A true peach. Personally not a huge fan but I know a lot of people love the formula of this lipstick as well.

NYX Round Lipstick in Indian Pink | Swatch with close to a baby pink, Indian Pink is actually a pink coral when transferred to the lips. I personally hate the formula of the NYX round lipsticks  (too waxy and slippery) but I know they are given a lot of love in the beauty community. It looks beautiful in pictures.

The pictures don't really tell. If interested, please check out the video for the true colors :)



Now, what are your favorite orange / peach / coral lipsticks? Please share!
