Once you know your skin tone and undertone, it would be smooth sailing to find and choose the right shade of lipstick for yourself.


Types of Revlon Lipstick for Indians


Before finding the right shade of lipstick, you first need to know what type of lipstick you want to get.

Liquid lipstick became a staple in every girl’s purse not too long ago. Liquid lipsticks have more pigment compared to regular lipstick, and they leave a stain that lasts for hours to all day long.

Matte lipsticks are luscious and creamy lipsticks that have a smooth texture that is drying and are smudge-free and transfer-free. Matte lipsticks are the game changer in the makeup industry to get that clean lip look. 

Glossy lipsticks are subtle lips tints that provide the lips with moisture. These lipsticks hydrate your lips and provide your lips with nourishment to keep your lips shiny and chap-free.

Lip crayons are portable lipsticks to have with you and they have a lightweight and soft creamy texture. Lip crayons at Revlon are packed with amazing ingredients for the nourishment of your lips.

From all these types of lipsticks, you can choose which type of lipstick you want before choosing the right Revlon lipstick colors for you.
