These 5 under 30-dollar lipsticks are not only flattering to the lips but also offer a formula that gives long-lasting, all-day glam!
When choosing a lipstick, shoppers shouldn't only consider its shade, texture, and weight but also its skin-loving formula that can last for hours.
Based on reviews from other beauty consumers, here are five of the brands that offer effective lipsticks for an affordable price:
Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creams - $7
On Reddit, a beauty lover recommended this lipstick, highlighting its long-lasting matte function without drying the lips.
Although it is very pigmented, it feels light and soft to the lips. The only downside of this lip cream is that it is not transfer-proof.
Lime Crime Plushies - $15
This one has a "soft focus" & "non-opaque" formula that gives a plushy toy-like finish. Although it dries down completely for that smooth and touch-proof effect, it is less drying to the lips and can last for hours.
MAC Cosmetics Matte Lipstick - $28

This lipstick has a high-pigmentation and matte finish that won't fade even after eight hours.
It has a smooth application and formula that retains moisture of the lips, cake-proof and transfer-proof. However, its disadvantage is that it takes a few coats before its color pops out.
Urban Decay Vice Lip Bond - $28
As advertised by the brand, this lipstick can last up to 16 hours, without flaking and cracking. Its glossy formula also helps to keep the lips hydrated.
One beauty consumer swears by this product, sharing how it lasted for over 8 hours despite her eating snacks, dinner, and dessert.
Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint - $29
This lip paint has a velvet glow with just one swipe, and it only takes one application for it to stay all day!
