Although some think that brown lipstick is universal, the reality is not all brown lip shades are equal. Especially with deeper, richer melanated tones, there’s a need for well-formulated lipsticks that actually go deep enough. While there’s been a lot of improvement, there’s still a hunt to find that ~perfect~ brown lipstick for dark skin.

Thankfully, there are a few brown lipsticks that are ITK-beauty-editor-approved. The best part? They won’t break the bank and they’re perfect for fall.
