Doll You Up By S says:

These are my favourites!

  • Rouge Louboutin Velvet Matte in the shade Beige Very Gill 015M by Christian Louboutin
  • Immortal Rosewood from Makeup Forever
  • Pillow talk by Charlotte Tilbury

Make-up by Afsha Rangila★ 4.9 says:

  • One of my all-time favourite shades is 02 from Sephora Liquid lipstick. It’s such a nice warm subtle brown tone and goes with the Indian skin tone sooo well. And it’s such a versatile shade that almost goes with every outfit colour. It’s a creamy lip stain which dries out beautifully. A perfect colour for all seasons.
  • My second favourite is Somebody to Love from NARS Liquid lipstick. It’s a nice rosy pink shade with a hint of depth once it dries out. Goes well with medium to light skin tones. Love the formula as it’s not too drying.
  • And the last one is Brick from the Dose of Colours. It’s a cool tone deep red which isn’t very overpowering and not in the face kind of shade! Love how I can mix a tad bit of any colour to this and every time some new tone gets discovered!

Peach Please by Soniya★ 4.9 says:

Here are 3 lipsticks which look amazing on dusky Indian brides

  • Smashbox Always on liquid lipstick- Gula-Bae
  • MAC Powder Kiss Lipstick- Brickthrough
  • Nykaa Matte to last! Transfer-proof liquid lipstick- Le Pondy/Bombae

All the above-mentioned lipsticks are long-wear, non-drying, smudge-proof, feel weightless. Gula bae is a colour which is more towards pink nude, it goes really well with all shades of pink, ivory and gold. Brick through from MAC is a combination of red and brown, it’s a perfect colour for the brides wearing coral, orange and red. Le Pondy and Bombae from Nykaa are budget friendly lipstick, one is pink nude and the other is more brown and both used together can create nice ombré lips

My favourite colours for dusky Indian brides are

  • Huda Trophy Wife
  • MAC Meher
  • Smashbox Medium Pink Rose

Madhura Mazumdar★ 4.9 says:

Here are the three lipstick recommendations

  • Charlotte Tilbury - Pillow Talk Medium

Perfect nude shade for medium to dusky skin. Versatile shade that can be paired with heavy eyes or can be worn by itself for day or night

  • Bobbi Brown - Neutral Rose

A brown shade with rosy undertones that enhances the complexion and the best part is the texture that feels very comfortable on lips

  • Huda beauty - Bombshell

A warm coral lipstick that looks flattering on all Indian skin tones and a long stay formula

BlinkD by Deepika Ahuja★ 4.9 says:

3 lipsticks I would recommend are

  • Icon - Huda beauty, it’s a mix red brown
  • Bend & Snap- Too faced, for pink mauve tone lovers!
  • Finesse- Too faced, it’s a burgundy colour, towards brown

These are perfect shades for woman’s dusky skin. Being deep shades, they bring out the natural undertone of the skin & makeups your skin looks brighter.

PANNAS★ 4.9 says:

Revlon Shameless- A very unique beautiful mauvy- pink shade for dusky & deep skin. The formula is creamy & the pigmentation is great. A great dupe to CT- Pillow talk medium.

PAC lipliner- Beauty Queen. Love the creamy texture which keeps lips hydrated and a must-have in your bridal kit for its long-lasting pigmented stay

Swiss Beauty- Plump up Wet Gloss in the shade Mauve Muse. Now, you can click those snaps with the perfect pout as this gloss will give your lips a plumped-up and fuller lip effect. The rich texture will ooze out those sexy lips and will grab all the attention while leaving a mild pleasant sensation! It is vegan, cruelty-free and alcohol-free. Use it as a solo or apply it over your regular lipstick for shiny lips

Shikha Chandra - Makeup and Hair★ 5 says: 

I love the Huda Beauty Trophy Wife. It's a neutral-toned medium berry and looks very flattering on deeper skin tones. This is a colour for brides who want to choose a more subtle colour and don't want to go completely nude on the lips.

 

Sneha SK Makeovers★ 4.9 says:

I love All fired up by MAC, which is a shade that accentuates the golden skin tone of the brides making it shine all the more. Another one of my favourites is Ruby Woo Retro Matte lipstick by MAC- There's no second thought when it comes to Red for the bride. Ruby woo is my favorite when it comes to red lipstick for dusky brides.

 

Neha Seehra says:

I really the shades of Red which I personally love on my brides with a dusty skin tone. Reds are the forever Universal favourites and a bit deeper pink and wine shades also complement their skin complexion so well. Nars- Dragon Girl (Red) is the shade I have used on the bride here, and it just pops so well!

 

Rashi Sehgal Official★ 4.4 says:

Truffle brown lips looks highly appealing and sultry as they blend naturally with dusky complexion. HUDA liquid matte lipstick in TRENDSETTER topped with BOMBSHELL is one of my favourite combinations for dusky brides.
