Best Lipsticks in Pakistan 2026: A Simple Guide to Shades, Types & Affordable Sets - The Nexa Shop

A good lipstick can pull a whole look together in seconds. But with so many types — matte, liquid, gloss, tint — and so many price points, choosing the right one gets confusing fast. This guide breaks down the main lipstick types, which suits which occasion, and the best affordable options available in Pakistan with Cash on Delivery.

This guide is part of our Complete Guide to Buying Makeup in Pakistan.

The main types of lipstick, explained simply

Matte lipstick — flat, no-shine finish. Long-lasting and bold, ideal for events and photos. Can feel slightly dry, so use a lip balm underneath.

Liquid lipstick — goes on wet, dries to a matte finish. Very long-wearing and transfer-resistant, great for all-day wear and functions.

Lip gloss — shiny, hydrating finish. Perfect for a fresh, everyday look, on its own or layered over lipstick.

Lip tint / stain — lightweight, natural flush of colour that lasts for hours. Ideal for a no-makeup makeup look and daily wear.

How to choose the right shade for Pakistani skin

Most Pakistani skin tones have warm or neutral undertones, which is why certain shades flatter more than others:

  • Nudes — pick warm, brownish or peachy nudes rather than pale or grey-toned ones, which can look washed out.
  • Reds — warm and brick reds suit most Pakistani skin beautifully. Classic for weddings and events.
  • Browns and mauves — flattering for everyday wear on medium to deep skin.
  • Berry and plum — gorgeous for evening looks and cooler months.

A tip: if you are unsure, a set with multiple shades lets you experiment and find what suits you, without buying many separately.

Best value — lipstick sets

If you want a full lip wardrobe in one go, sets are the smartest buy:

  • Dream Refreshing Matte Lip Crayon Set (6 pcs) — Six highly-pigmented matte crayons in wearable everyday shades. Our single best-selling product, and it is easy to see why: velvet colour, weightless feel, and six shades for the price of one designer lipstick.
  • KS One Liquid Lipstick Set (12 pcs) — Rs. 1,499. A complete lip wardrobe, from everyday nudes to bold statement shades. Matte, long-wearing, and brilliant value at twelve shades.
  • IGOODCO 6-Piece Matte Liquid Lipstick Set — Rs. 1,049. Six velvet shades in a gift box with a built-in mirror, which makes it a lovely present as well as an everyday set.

Best for everyday — glosses and tints

Best for events — bold, long-lasting colour

Tips to make your lipstick last longer

  • Exfoliate and apply a lip balm first, especially before matte formulas.
  • Line your lips with a lip liner to stop colour bleeding and add wear time.
  • Blot with a tissue after the first coat, then apply a second — it locks the colour in.
  • For events, choose liquid or matte formulas over glossy ones, which fade faster.
