Are you someone who is always on the lookout for the best shades of a red matte lipstick? Or are you one of those girls, woman or any other makeup-loving person who wants lipstick that stays on all day? We get it, getting good lipstick shades is rare and wary. We can look and look but never get. But, we can never stop. Whether we look for glossy gems, matte colours, or even the various other sub-categories in the textures. All said and done, lipsticks are truly the first love of a makeup lover, across race, gender, et al, because makeup is truly gender neutral. A red colour lipstick or pink matte lipstick or the natural looking lipstick shades, all the shades complement respective and all skin tones. All that the user wants is that it should be smudge proof lipstick and a long stay lipstick. Pretty basic, isn’t it?
Sadly, most of the brands don’t even check all the points of this basic checklist. If they are natural, they aren’t long lasting and vice versa. Vegan lipsticks and paraben free lipsticks last hardly more than a balm. That’s not what one would expect while looking for clean makeup in your coloured cosmetic kit. You want sustainability combined with the beauty and utility of what your lip makeup is supposed to be because it is applied on lips, the most delicate part of your body. You want a lip colour lipstick that is also one of the non toxic lipsticks or organic lipsticks and can also complete your lipstick makeup kit or matte liquid lip set (depending on the texture you are going for).
Lipsticks have been in vogue since the times of Cleopatra, only the trends have changed. From red colour lipstick crafted out of natural fruits and colours, now it is being created scientifically. But, even with the science, all the ingredients so far have been toxic. From lead to parabens, there was a lot going on in your smudge proof lipstick or that favourite red matte liquid lipstick of yours. The texture too was extremely drying. The best natural looking lipstick colors in matte and long staying textures were coming at a terrible cost — deteriorating lip health, allergies, and non-sustainability. Natural and gentle lipsticks had their own limitations. Your dark lipstick or natural lipstick in a cream format did not stay, and the counterpart in the form of a long stay lipstick that was almost always a matte lip colour or various liquid matte lipstick shades were extremely drying, leading to your lips feeling extremely dry and chapped. The need of the hour was clean makeup and beauty. Whether a red colour lipstick or a pink matte lipstick or even the most natural shades, they need to be made of natural ingredients and yet have the power to stay on for a long time without any discomfort or disadvantage.
The biggest rage nowadays among makeup lovers is that of a natural look. It means creating a makeup look that enhances their natural perfections and imperfections rather than altering their entire personality to fit the society’s toxic norms. Natural looking lipstick shades don’t just mean nude and natural lipstick shades, it just means shades across the colour spectrum that complement various skin tones in a natural and beautiful way. Plus, if these are cruelty free and vegan lipsticks and paraben free lipsticks, these would be truly natural lipsticks, both in terms of color and lack of any harm.
But, which ones are those best natural looking lipstick colors that fulfil all these requirements and do not compromise on the color factor? Are these natural shades created using natural ingredients that amp up the care factor and a science that takes the color and staying power up by notches? That we’ll have to carefully pick. And so, to save your time we have created a list of such natural looking lipstick shades that are non toxic in every way, and exude beautiful and natural shades.
Here are the List of 7 natural looking lipstick shades which will give you a simple natural look
#1 Kiro Beauty Super Butter Lip Lacquer – Stone Lily
Let’s start with a texture and shade that is all too familiar. Lip lacquers have been around for quite some time, but none promises to be a long stay lipstick. It’s almost always the matte colours that promise a long staying power and opaque finish, never the lacquers and glosses (the two are different; glosses have sheer pigmentation and low staying power). This Super Butter Lip Lacquer, however, is crafted out of five unique butter blends to create a smooth and soft texture that just melts on the lips. But, that’s not it. This one is a lipstick that stays on all day in a beautiful lip tint format. The shade Stone Lily is a perfect mauve shade that is perfect for an everyday look or office look or an adventure look or outdoor touring look. It’s also great for a pretty dating look. You can even adapt this to your party look with a heavy eye makeup if you are not into wearing dark lipstick. Of all the lipshades of a truly non toxic and vegan affair, this one is a cult favourite — a mauve natural shade that perks up every skintone.

The shade is a perfect brown that is amazing for all skin tones and the texture is comfortable on the lips and withstands all weathers. And all of this is wrapped in the goodness of organic lipsticks that are also vegan and cruelty free. A no-toxicity product that stays long and is super pigmented, just for your lips and in the perfect natural shade. What more can you ask for?

It is non-drying and one of the best non toxic lipsticks that you’d ever apply.

#7 Kiro Beauty Non-Stop Airy Matte Liquid Lip – Ladybird Red
How can we end the list without adding a true red colour lipstick. After all, natural looking lipstick shades also include shades of red matte lipstick. Reds in matte colours can be quite tricky to find, trickier to apply. But the Non-Stop Airy Matte one offers a texture that you wouldn’t be able to forget and would find yourself reaching out for every day, no matter what look you wish to create. You want good lipstick shades, make sure you at least have a red, a pink, and a natural one in your set. Even with the minimalism, you’d be sorted for most of the occasions — outdoor look, office look, party look, or even an outdoor touring look or an adventure look. The key is to find comfort in colour, and this is it, that perfect red that compliments all the skintones, wrapped in a super comforting texture.

Get started on colour, care and comfort – clean makeup
Clean beauty is the need of the hour. Now, the need is not just for lipsticks that are organic, the need is for lip colours that are high on colour, care and comfort, and that is only possible if the product gets rid of all the toxicity. The lip colour should be non toxic, sustainable, and ethical. You need products that combine everything into wonderful and comfortable textures to create lipsticks that help enhance the look and also take care of the lips with its natural and unfiltered ingredients such as jojoba oil, apricot oil, vitamins, etc. But, that does not mean the lipsticks should be low on colour and staying power. Look for clean brands that offer long stay lipsticks that are high in pigmentation by adding natural and organic ingredients with a technology that ensures longevity and pigmentation.
It’s time to go high on colour, care and comfort, with lipsticks that last long and stay long. Look for clean makeup that comes with comfort.
