Best Hydrating Lipsticks for Fall and Winter
Gurls, you know how it goes: the temps drop, the heat kicks on, and suddenly our poor lips are dry and chapped. UGH. Nothing ruins a pretty lipstick faster than dry, flaky lips. That’s why a good hydrating lipstick is a must-have for fall and winter. I’ve been checking out some new favorites (and revisiting a few classics), and these are the ones that actually keep lips soft while giving us that gorgeous pop of color.
Here are some recent posts on beauty, in case you missed them.
tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Plump

This one feels like a little spa treatment for your lips. The maracuja oil hydrates, while the plumping formula smooths out fine lines. It’s glossy, juicy, and one of those lipsticks you’ll reach for when you want a little extra oomph.
- Hydrating maracuja oil formula
- Plumps without stinging
- Juicy, glossy finish
- Doubles as skincare and color
Clinique Pop Longwear Lipstick
I’ve found that Clinique always does right by us when it comes to comfort, and this lipstick is no different. It goes on smoothly, lasts for hours, and doesn’t feel heavy or tight. I love that you can pick from satin, matte, or shine depending on your mood, it’s like three lipsticks in one.
- Long-lasting but comfy on the lips
- Satin, matte, or shine finishes available
- Smooths right over fine lines
- A classic brand we’ve trusted forever
L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Original Lipstick

This one has been around for decades, and honestly, it’s still one of the best drugstore finds out there. Infused with argan oil and vitamin E, it feels more like lip balm than lipstick. Blushing Berry is such a pretty shade for fall! It brightens up your face without being too bold.
- Hydrating formula with argan oil
- Vitamin E keeps lips soft
- Creamy satin finish
- Gorgeous berry shade for fall and winter
e.l.f. Hydrating Core Lip Shine
Think of this as a tinted Chapstick with benefits. It’s sheer, glossy, and has a moisturizing core right in the center that keeps lips soft. This is perfect for those no-makeup days when you just want a hint of color without fuss.
- Sheer wash of color
- Balm-like core keeps lips moisturized
- Affordable and easy to grab
- Perfect for everyday wear
COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Moisture Renew Lipstick
This one is made with mature lips in mind. It’s got a moisture core that helps smooth fine lines while keeping your lips hydrated. The shade Special Espresso is a rich color for winter. Think cozy sweaters and hot coffee vibes.
- Moisturizing formula with smoothing core
- Designed for mature lips
- Neutral shade that works with everything
- Budget-friendly
DM95 Nude Pink Cream Lipstick
If you’re after that “your lips but better” look, this nude pink is it. Creamy, hydrating, and with just enough shine, it’s the kind of lipstick you keep in your purse because it works with absolutely everything.
- Creamy and moisturizing
- Nude pink shade for everyday wear
- Adds shine without stickiness
- Comfortable for dry lips
Maybelline Super Stay Vinyl Ink Liquid Lipcolor
Sometimes you want lipstick that won’t budge, and this is it. The Vinyl Ink formula provides bold, glossy color that actually stays in place. I love the Royal shade. It’s a deep wine red that’s perfect for holiday parties or date night.
- Glossy finish that lasts
- Doesn’t dry out your lips
- Bold, rich pigment
- Perfect for festive nights out
Sephora Collection Bisou Jelly Sheer Shine Lipstick
Lightweight and fun, this jelly lipstick is the definition of easy. It gives you a sheer wash of color and plenty of shine, making it a great everyday option. It feels more playful than a heavy lipstick but still pulls your whole look together.
- Sheer, shiny finish
- Lightweight jelly texture
- Comfortable for everyday wear
- Easy to apply on the go
Pat McGrath Labs LiquiLUST Matte Lipstick
This is supposedly where Taylor Swift gets her iconic red lipstick! Normally, I’d say skip matte lipsticks if your lips are dry, but this one is different. It’s flexible, long-wearing, and doesn’t crack or settle into lines. If you want a luxury lipstick that feels as good as it looks, Pat McGrath is worth the splurge.
- Comfortable matte formula
- Doesn’t settle into fine lines
- Long-lasting color payoff
- Luxe pick for special occasions
Dry lips don’t have to ruin your look! These hydrating lipsticks keep your pout soft while delivering beautiful color all fall and winter long. From budget-friendly e.l.f. and L’Oreal to luxe options like tarte and Pat McGrath, there’s a tube here calling your name.
