Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink, Dhs58 at MAC Ruby Woo, Dhs95 Let’s address the obvious here – this lipstick is an unparalled classic. It will always be the go-to red lipstick for every shade.

KVD Vegan Beauty Lolita Liquid Lipstick, Dhs95 at Sephora
The creamy texture makes this lippie feel more like lip balm. The product sits well on the lips and leaves a glow that isn’t matte.

Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick, Dhs105 at Shophudabeauty
This lipstick has one of the best formulars ever – transfer proof and pigmented! Most liquid lipsticks fall short when it comes to the hydrating aspects, but the formula for this lipstick is legit.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick, Dhs111 at Sephora
This cult favourite OG liquid lipstick formula is much more long-wearing than most. Enriched with natural oils, This ABH lippie is sure to soften up those dry, flaky patches.

NYX Butter Gloss, Dhs28 at Look Fantastic
This NYX Butter Gloss is forever iconic. It is the most affordabke of the bunch and the ultimate hydrator and limp pump.

MAC Lipglass, Dhs80
MAC packaged the best go-to glassy finish product in a convenient tube that we’ll never get enough of. As the name suggests, it wears well as lipgloss, but for a dramatic look, it is best used as an eyeshadow topper or lipstick topper.

Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb, Dhs100 at Harvey-Nichols
There’s a reason why this is beauty was crowned 2019’s fave lipgloss (and every instagrammer’s personal favourite). Fenty beauty delivered on the formular for this lipgloss – it doesn’t feel tacky, has hydrating benefits and fits ANY skin tone.

Charlotte Tilbury Penelope Pink, Dhs145
Although a creamy formula, this lipstick outlasts some matte lipsticks. The nude shade leaves a super-pretty baby pink tint and the smell? Divine!
Chanel Rouge Allure Ink, Dhs151
The beautifully crafted formula made with real natural plant oils and wax gives more of a velvet finish than a matte finish (which some of us love.)
