- Jan 04, 2021 MAC lipsticks can offer you different kinds of shades that will accentuate your natural curves, pull up bow, and plump up pout lips. Using this kind of product will showcase the complete look that you are wanting for. In this piece, we will help you figure out best MAC lipsticks for your skin type be it medium skin, dark skin or fair skin.
- As you may see me with red lipsticks on my blog, I still like the most neutral non maintenance lipsticks. After some googling I decided to buy High Tea. The packaging is black with little silver shimmer. The top clicks when you put it on and I think it's pretty safe to have it in your bag. Lipstick contains 3 grams of product and it cost me 19.
MAC High Tea is a moderately warm-toned, medium-dark beige with a frost finish. It is a permanent lipstick that retails for $20.00 and contains 0.1 oz. Jump to a particular section if you know what information you're looking for! For darker skin, Beatrix offers the deepest red with a hint of copper as a beautiful, full-coverage matte MAC lipstick. The color has depth and beauty that other reds just cannot pull off. The shade is rich and distinguishable on darker skin with a tint to it that accentuates the reddish tones.

A couple of months back, I did a quick little post on Instagram showing my top 5 nudes for Indian Skin! The link to that is here
Till date, that stands my most loved post ever! Almost 40 of you guys saved it, which is a big deal to me! 🙂 I received a lot of requests from you all to do more of these! So here I am, with an updated Top 5 Nudes!
Before you begin reading, I'd like to inform you one thing – the lipsticks in the last post of mine were more of those which could be worn by all skintones, fair, medium, deep! Here, I am including a lot of shades which may be almost too brown and pink for the fairer sex! I do have one shade that would look stunning on all skintones – irrespective of the fact that you are pale or dark! The reason is, I want to make my page as inclusive as possible! So you will find posts for the fair skinned, olive skinned, dark skinned, basically for everyone on this page!
So with that being said and after that really long intro, let's quickly see what my Top 5 Nude Lipstick picks are for Brown Skintones! 😀
So with that being said and after that really long intro, let's quickly see what my Top 5 Nude Lipstick picks are for Brown Skintones! 😀
- Colorbar's Velvet Matte Lipstick in ‘High Tea'
Retailing for just ₹325, this is a stunning brown – nude that would look amazing on deeper skins! It is a velvet/soft matte and looks amazing, especially with smokey eyes! For the lighter skinned beauties, this would be a great brown, perfect for this time of the year, when everyone brings out their dark lipsticks and deeper eyeshadows!
2. Nelf USA's Lipstick in ‘VT 21 Amaze'
Priced at a very affordable ₹250, this has to be the best priced lipstick in this list! I came across this brand almost 3 years ago at a mall! And it has now launched on Nykaa as well! While the price and the name of the brand might make you skeptical about the ingredients or quality of the product, I read all of that and only then put it in this list! This lipstick literally is just like any Maybelline or Lakme lipstick that you might own! Stunning pink colour for fair and wheatish skin and a great nude for darker skins, really good longevity and staying power, and a boon for the pocket too! If you're still skeptical, do give it a swatch if you ever come across this brand. And you'd be amazed as well! Haha, see what I did there? 😉
3. Maybelline Lip Polish in ‘Glam 13'
When I had initially seen this at my local Health and Glow, I refused to even Swatch it. It looks like a muddy brown-pink in the tube, which put me off instantly. However, the sales rep there finally made me swatch it and omg! This is such a lovely nude gloss, I can't even tell you! Priced at ₹450, this is a great MLBB gloss that you can just swipe on your lips and go! It would look great on all skintones because of the prominent pink undertones it has! Lovely colour. Must try if you like nudes AND glosses!
4. Lakme 9to5 Lipstick in ‘Brownie Point'
This is the shade from the original 9to5, but it has been relaunched with a better formula in the 9to5 Primer Plus Matte Collection by Lakme! A neutral brown colour, this would work amazing as a brown nude for darker skintones or on anyone who prefers brown nudes over pink nudes! On fair to even medium skin though, this would look like a true reddish brown! So if you're up for a brown, especially for this Fall-Winter seasons, grab this! It is also almost always on a discount on Nykaa as well!
5. MAC Cremesheen Lipstick in ‘Creme in your Coffee'
Anyone who knows me would know that this HAD to appear in my list! I even did a blog post reviewing this stunning colour! You've got to give this a shot if you're olive skinned or darker! It's an amazing MLBB colour which I have almost finished (which is super rare for me btw – I never finish lipsticks) Highly recommend you to check it out if you have the budget of ₹1500!
Overall, if you'd ask me – what are the absolute favourites of yours – I'd say if you're on a budget – Colorbar's High Tea and if not, MAC's Creme in your Coffee (obv)!
Do let me know of other Top 5s you'd like me to do! I'm all up for challenges! 😎

What's an unsung makeup hero? Mac franchise india. For me, it's an oftentimes underrated makeup morsel, a permanent collection product that scoots under the radar screen of many makeup lovers but regularly rocks my world. The long-running Unsung Heroes series features some of my favorites.
There ain't no party like a high tea party 'cause a high tea party don't stop!
This occurs to me not only because I'm currently craving tea and those tiny sandwiches from The Rotunda again (OH, MAH GOSH! So good…), but also because of the recently launched frosty beige MAC Mariah Carey Lipstick.
Even though I can totally picture Mimi rocking a frosty beige lipstick, it's the kind of color that isn't always easy to wear, which got me wondering about other MAC lipsticks with a kinda-sorta similar vibe.
After combing my mental MAC files, I remembered High Tea. It's a $17 pearly beige pink in the MAC Lustre Lipstick line, and it has just enough frostiness to hit those high notes without being so frosty that it becomes difficult to wear.
There was a time when I was regularly wearing tubes of High Tea down to the nub (you know I love me some nude lips). It's one of those 'it goes with everything' nude lipsticks, and I think it looks great by itself for a quickie nude lip.
Lipstick For Dark Skin Women
Maybe because of the subtle frosty, shiny finish, it also makes my lips look a little fuller (I think). Yup, being a MAC Lustre, High Tea has a glossy, holiday-hoppin' finish, but it isn't sticky like a gloss, which means that I can wear it without worrying about my hair whipping around when it's windy and getting stuck to my pout.
I find that I do have to reapply the lightweight, moderately moisturizing formula after snacks, drinks and meals, but that's not a big deal for me. I don't mind. I kinda think it's fun (and MAC's signature vanilla flavor and scent get me every time).
Mac High Tea Lipstick On Dark Skin Indian
Also, when you're in the mood to layer, try it with MAC Lip Pencil in Subculture or the MAC Pro Longwear Lip Pencils in Oh Honey or Cultured. I love how they look with High Tea. Or, try it with something like a nude pinkish gloss on top, like MAC Plushglass in Big Baby. 🙂
