Ever since the year began, we saw many local beauty brands release their own lip products—each unique in their own ways and all in different shades of red, pink, and nude that perfectly suit the Filipina skin tone.
Here, we listed our favorites from all the homegrown lippies that launched in 2023, from kissable lip stains to gorgeous plush matte lipsticks.
Which of these are on your wishlist?
Happy Skin Lip Cloud Matte Lipstick
Happy Skin’s iconic lippie got a fresh look this year in the form of its new Lip Cloud Matte Lipstick which leaves a soft plush matte finish that’s non-drying. The application is smooth and almost weightless. It comes in eight pigmented colors that last all day!
blk cosmetics Pillow Matte Lipsticks
blk’s OG bullet lipsticks have been remade with a new formula that delivers a lip-smoothening, long-wearing matte formula. It comes in eight intensely pigmented shades that are so lightweight when applied. Definitely love how it looks on our lips!
Issy and Co. Lip Bullets
Issy and Co.’s lip bullets have been three years in the making and fans will argue that it’s worth the wait, especially with the massive 21-shade collection that the brand put out in one go! You can choose among three finishes: True Matte, featuring intensely pigmented and long-wearing shades; True Velvet, which delivers a smoothing soft-focus finish on the lips; and True Satin, which makes your lips pop with hydrating color.
Colourette Mini Colourtint
Colourette’s best-selling Colourtint just got shrunk into these 3ml minis that are perfect for traveling around. Just like its bigger version, the Mini Colourtints are multi-use, easily blendable, and ultra-pigmented. Plus, they dry down to a matte finish whether you grab any of the two variants, Fresh and Matte.
Sunnies Face Fluffbalm
Sunnies Face took the concept of creating the perfect blotted lip look and turned it into a lipstick. Their Fluffbalm, which comes in three shades, is a moisturizing matte lipstick-lip balm hybrid that is perfect for creating a natural, effortless look. These lippies were designed for casual everyday wear when you just want a pop of color on your lips while running errands bare-faced.
Vice Cosmetics Soft Veil Tints
Lightweight and transfer-proof with a blurring effect, Vice Cosmetics’ Soft Veil Tints make your lips look plump, soft, and smooth the whole day! There are seven vibrant shades to choose from, all of which will transform you into the “Gandoll” you are.
Filipinta Lovesick Lip Pills
Filipinta takes inspiration from all the things we Filipinos love about our own culture and translates it to beauty products we can’t help but obsess over! One of their newest launches is the Lovesick Lip Pills, a multi-use matte tint that’s super pigmented, lightweight, and easily glides on the lips! It’s sold as a set and includes two shades: a bold red and a gorgeous nude.
Lucky Beauty Dewy Lip Stain
Lucky Beauty’s Dewy Lip Stain, which comes in six shades, makes your lips look luscious and juicy as it leaves a vibrant flush of color. The wand is what makes this lip stain stand out too, featuring two sides of different material. Use the silicone side for sheer coverage or the fluffy brush side for fuller coverage! Either way, this product is guaranteed to nourish, protect, and soften your lips without making it sticky.
