Lipsticks are like the ideal enhancer; one quick swatch and your look gets a 10x switch-up. If you believe the same, this year brings a whole new range of lipsticks that have luxe pigments and textures. There are delicious pops of color, moisturizing blends, and made-to-last sheer and matte finishes. We looked at some of the best lipsticks of 2021, and picked the following ones that tick boxes of good formula, reviews, and pigment.

Bobbi Brown Crushed Shine Jelly Stick
For some moisturizing magic with a glossy tint, the Bobbi Brown Jelly Stick is a real winner. It has fruit oils and hyaluronic acid that hydrate the lips. Don’t need any pre-lipstick balm because this lip moisturizer and enhancer combo gets the job done and how! The jelly formula gives your lips a smooth non-smear finish. Express yourself with colors like Tahiti, Lilac, Papaya, and Candy Apple that are adorable shades of pink, violet, orange and red respectively.

Glossier Ultralip
A non-heavy, luxurious, pretty lipstick that is dubbed by the brand to be “the cashmere sweatpants of lipsticks.” The Ultralip made its official debut on the lips of the “Deja vu” singer, Olivia Rodrigo, who said that the lipstick elevates the natural tone of her lips. Like the Bobbi Brown jelly stick, this one is also rich in moisture. It gets its hydrating power from an oil blend of watermelon, jojoba, and meadowfoam. Apart from receiving good reviews, and acing the formula, Glossier has added exciting colors like Fête, a bright pink-toned red, and Portrait for a cherry blossom pink lip.

Dior Rouge Dior Refillable Lipstick
Dior’s creamy blend comes in gorgeous tints and has a rich formula and we would expect nothing less from this luxury brand. The lipstick is made of shea butter and pomegranate flower extract for supple lips that are protected throughout the day. It has advanced finishes other than matte, such as metallic, velvet, satin, which really makes it one of the best lipsticks of 2021. The refillable design let’s you alternate your lipstick with a new shade anytime, which promotes durable lip wear.

The above lipsticks are incredible additions to any makeup lover’s beauty collection. They provide good moisture-lock, have irresistible tints, and well-researched formulas — all compelling reasons to try them out!
