SUGAR Lip Prices August 2026: Four Lines, Rs. 115 to Rs. 1,249

One hundred and fifteen rupees. Of the ninety in-stock lip listings we read on August 1, nothing was cheaper, and the next step up is a Rs. 149 balm. A liner is an odd thing to lead a buying guide with, so here is the case for it: the single most common complaint about inexpensive matte lipsticks is that they bleed at the edges by the third hour, and a liner is the only fix that costs less than the lipstick. Pair this with the Rs. 174 Satin Matte Luxe below it and you have a lip that holds its shape for Rs. 289 total, which is less than one SUGAR Play crayon. The catch is real and worth stating: only one shade, 01 Red Carpet, was in stock when we read the feed, and a red liner is a poor match for a nude or a berry. If Red Carpet is not near what you wear, this is not a purchase, it is a spare. Buy it when the shade works, not because it is the cheapest number on the page.

One hundred and forty-nine rupees, and the stated MRP is also one hundred and forty-nine. That pairing is the single most common thing on this shelf: fifty of the ninety lip listings we read carried a discount of exactly zero. It is worth understanding why before you read the rest of this page, because it changes how you should shop here. SUGAR is a direct-to-consumer brand selling its own goods on its own site, so there is no third-party seller inflating an MRP to slice, and no marketplace badge economy to play in. The price is the price. What you get for it is a tinted nourishing balm in seven shades - a product category that sits between lip care and colour, and the right answer for anyone who finds full matte formulas drying in an air-conditioned office. It is not a statement lip and does not pretend to be. Against the Rs. 199 Tipsy Lips further down, this is Rs. 50 cheaper with a lighter tint; against the Rs. 599 Drop A Tint oil, it is a quarter of the price and about half the product.

One hundred and seventy-four rupees, fifty per cent off a stated Rs. 349, across nine shades. If you are buying one thing from this page and do not already know which line you want, buy this. A satin matte is the most forgiving finish SUGAR makes - enough slip to apply without a mirror, enough pigment to register in daylight, and none of the drying edge that full mattes bring after four hours. Nine shades is a real range rather than a token one. And the arithmetic sets the floor for everything below: Rs. 174 is what a single SUGAR lipstick costs when it is discounted, which makes the Rs. 899 Matte As Hell roughly five of these, and the Rs. 1,249 Mettle roughly seven. Those are not unreasonable prices for what they are, but the comparison is the one worth carrying down the page. One honest caveat: the fifty per cent here is not a limited event we can date - it was simply the price on August 1 - and the same lipstick appears in the Set of 10 further down at Rs. 80 a unit, which is less than half of this.

• Price: Rs. 174 (stated MRP Rs. 349)
• Key detail: Satin matte bullet lipstick, 9 shades, shown in 08 Carnation
• Discount: 50% off, which is Rs. 175

• Role: Best value bullet lipstick
• Buying logic: the shelf's reference price

Two hundred and seventy-nine rupees, no discount, twenty-four shades in stock. That last number is the reason this listing earns a card. Shade range is the quiet failure point of budget lip ranges - a brand launches eight shades, six of them sell, two are permanently the only ones left, and the product becomes useless to anyone whose colouring the remaining two do not suit. Twenty-four in stock on a single reading is a different proposition: it means browns, berries, reds, nudes and pinks are all live, and you are choosing rather than settling. The trade against the Rs. 174 Satin Matte Luxe above is a hundred and five rupees for a fuller matte finish and fifteen more shades. Which way that goes depends on whether you already know your shade. If you do, and it exists in both, take the Satin Matte and keep the change. If you have been guessing, the wider range is worth more than the discount - a lipstick in the wrong colour costs a hundred per cent of what you paid, whatever the badge said.

• Price: Rs. 279 (stated MRP Rs. 279)

Three hundred and ninety-nine rupees, forty-three per cent off a stated Rs. 699, for five shades in one twist-up barrel. Per shade that is eighty rupees, which happens to be exactly the per-lipstick price of the Set of 10 at the bottom of this page - the two cheapest routes into SUGAR colour arrive at the same number by different roads. The case for this format is discovery: if you have never worn a berry or a brick and have no idea whether either works on you, five small bullets answer that for less than the price of two full ones. The case against is equally plain. The barrels are small, so a shade you love will run out fast, and you cannot replace one shade without rebuying all five. Our read is that this is a good first purchase and a poor repeat one. Buy it once, find the two shades you reach for, then buy those full-size from the Matte Lipcolour range above, where twenty-four shades are waiting.

One hundred and ninety-nine rupees, fifty per cent off a stated Rs. 399. SUGAR Play is the brand's younger, cheaper sub-line, and the thing to know about it is structural rather than cosmetic: every Play lip product in our read carried a discount between fifty and fifty-eight per cent, and none of them carried zero. That is the opposite of the core SUGAR shelf in the next chapter, where fifty listings sit at MRP. A whole sub-line permanently at half off is a pricing decision about the line, not an event you have caught at the right moment - so there is no advantage in waiting, and equally no urgency. What you get here is a clear high-shine gloss with enough slip to wear over a matte or alone, and without the tackiness that makes hair stick to your mouth in wind. At Rs. 199 it is the cheapest way to test whether you like the Play formulas at all before spending Rs. 249 on the crayon or the liquid.

• Price: Rs. 199 (stated MRP Rs. 399)
• Key detail: High-shine non-sticky gloss

Two hundred and forty-nine rupees, fifty-eight per cent off a stated Rs. 599 - the deepest discount on any single lip product in our ninety-listing read. Hold it directly against the Matte As Hell crayon in the next chapter, which is the same broad idea in SUGAR's core range: a twist-up matte crayon, Rs. 899, no discount, fifteen shades. This is Rs. 650 cheaper with five shades. The honest answer to what the extra Rs. 650 buys is that we cannot tell you from a feed reading, and we have not worn either. What we can say is which questions matter: crayon lipsticks live or die on how dry they go at hour four and how cleanly the tip holds an edge as it wears down, and those are formula properties that price often but not reliably tracks. If you are new to matte crayons, Rs. 249 is the sane place to learn whether the format suits your lips at all. If you already know it does and you wear it three days a week, the case for spending up is stronger than it looks on this page.

• Price: Rs. 249 (stated MRP Rs. 599)

Two hundred and forty-nine rupees, fifty per cent off a stated Rs. 499. A pH-reactive lip oil goes on clear and develops a pink that varies slightly with the wearer, which is a gimmick with a real use behind it: it removes the shade decision entirely. For anyone who finds shade-matching stressful, or who wants something in a bag for touch-ups without a mirror, that is worth more than it sounds. Set it against the Rs. 599 Drop A Tint oil in the core range and the trade is clear - this is Rs. 350 cheaper, and it does one clever thing rather than offering seven considered shades. Two cautions we would want from a guide like this. Colour-changing formulas are typically sheer, so if you want a lip that reads across a room this is not it. And oils in general wear off faster than creams or mattes, particularly through food, so this is a reapply-often product. At Rs. 249 that is a fair bargain. At Rs. 499 it would be a harder one.

• Price: Rs. 249 (stated MRP Rs. 499)
• Key detail: pH-reactive tinted lip oil

Two hundred and forty-nine rupees, fifty per cent off a stated Rs. 499, for the cheapest liquid lipstick on the shelf. The comparison that makes this card interesting is at the other end of the same page: SUGAR Mettle Liquid Lipstick, Rs. 1,249, no discount. One brand, one product category, a five-fold price gap, and both were live on the same site on the same morning. That gap is not a trick - liquid mattes vary genuinely in pigment load, wear time and how they behave as they dry - but it does mean the brand is asking you to decide where on that curve you sit, and the badge cannot help you decide. Four shades were in stock here against six for the Mettle. Our practical read: for occasional wear, evenings out and anyone still working out whether liquid mattes suit them, Rs. 249 is the right amount of money to risk. If a liquid matte is your daily lip and it has to survive a working day and a meal, this is the wrong end of the shelf and we would say so plainly.

• Price: Rs. 249 (stated MRP Rs. 499)
• Key detail: Transfer-resistant liquid matte, 4 shades, shown in 01 G.O.A.T

One hundred and ninety-nine rupees, stated MRP one hundred and ninety-nine. This is where the shelf changes character. Everything in the previous chapter sat at half off because SUGAR Play is priced that way as a line; from here down, the core SUGAR range is almost entirely at MRP, and no amount of waiting changes that. Tipsy Lips is the core range's entry product - a moisturising balm with a light tint in seven shades named after cocktails - and at Rs. 199 it sits Rs. 50 above the SUGAR POP balm for a slightly richer formula and a more established shade lineup. Whether that Rs. 50 is worth paying is a judgement about texture we cannot make for you from a product feed, and we will not pretend otherwise. What we can tell you is that the price is stable and honest: there is no inflated sticker above it, which means if you like it, buying it today costs the same as buying it during any sale event, and you can stop watching for one.

Five hundred and thirty-nine rupees, ten per cent off a stated Rs. 599. Ten per cent is a small number and it is the largest discount on any core SUGAR lip product in our entire read - every other flagship formula, from the Rs. 199 balm to the Rs. 899 crayon, sat at exactly MRP. So this single listing is the exception that proves how the shelf works, and sixty rupees is what an exception is worth here. As a product it is a shimmer gloss in two in-stock shades, which is a thin range and the main reason to hesitate; the Rs. 199 Play gloss above offers shine at a third of the price without the shimmer, and the choice between them is really about whether you want visible sparkle. Our view is that Rs. 539 is a lot for a gloss when the same brand sells a competent one for Rs. 199, and that the ten per cent should not do any persuading. Buy this if you specifically want the shimmer finish. Do not buy it because it is the only thing on the shelf wearing a badge.

Five hundred and ninety-nine rupees, stated MRP five hundred and ninety-nine, seven shades on one listing. Read this card together with the one directly beneath it, because the pair is the most practically useful thing on this page. This is the main Mousse Muse Lip Cream listing - the one you reach from the category page, with a shade picker offering all seven. Its price is Rs. 599 and it carries no discount. The next card is the same cream in the same shade, 02 Pinkie, on its own separate single-shade listing, at Rs. 249. Same product, same brand, same website, same morning, Rs. 350 apart. We are not alleging anything by that; single-shade listings are a normal way for a Shopify catalogue to clear specific colours, and a shade being cleared cheaply while the main listing holds its price is ordinary retail. But it does mean that on this shelf, the listing you happen to land on determines what you pay - and the shade picker, which is the convenient route, is the expensive one.

• Price: Rs. 599 (stated MRP Rs. 599)
• Key detail: Weightless mousse lip cream, 7-shade picker listing

Two hundred and forty-nine rupees, fifty-eight per cent off a stated Rs. 599 - and the card above this one is the same cream, in the same shade, at Rs. 599 with no discount. We found three of these single-shade Mousse Muse listings live on August 1 at Rs. 249 each: 02 Pinkie, 08 Spring Flower and 09 Girl With Peaches. If one of those three is a colour you would wear, this is the best rupee-for-product decision available on the whole shelf, and it is invisible from the category page. The instruction that follows is small and worth actually doing: before you buy any SUGAR lip product from its main listing, search the site for the product name plus your shade name. It takes fifteen seconds. On this shelf, on this morning, it was worth three hundred and fifty rupees. Two honest caveats. Single-shade clearance listings sell out and vanish without notice, so the Rs. 249 may not be there when you look. And this only worked for three of the seven shades - the other four were available at Rs. 599 only.

• Price: Rs. 249 (stated MRP Rs. 599)

Five hundred and ninety-nine rupees, no discount, seven shades. This is the core range's answer to the Rs. 249 colour-changing oil in the previous chapter, and the difference is a real one rather than a marketing one: that product does a pH trick and lands wherever it lands, while this offers seven deliberate shades including 01 Timeless Taupe, which is the sort of muted brown that a colour-shifting formula cannot produce by definition. You are paying Rs. 350 for the right to choose. Whether that is worth it depends entirely on whether you want a specific colour or just want your lips to look like a slightly better version of themselves - and for a large number of buyers, honestly, the second is true and the cheaper product is the right one. We would steer most first-time lip-oil buyers to the Rs. 249 Play oil and only come here if they know they want taupe, or brick, or a shade the novelty formula cannot reach. As with everything in this chapter, the price does not move, so there is nothing to wait for.

Five hundred and ninety-nine rupees, stated MRP the same, ten shades in stock on a limited-edition listing. One point of housekeeping first, because it nearly tripped us: the regular Nothing Else Matter listing and this limited-edition one carry different prices - Rs. 699 for the standard run against Rs. 599 here - and it would be easy to present that as the same duplicate-listing finding as the Mousse Muse above. It is not. A limited edition is a genuinely different product line with its own packaging and shade set, so a hundred-rupee gap between the two is unremarkable and we are not going to dress it up as one. What is here is a creamy longwear bullet at the midpoint of SUGAR's core range: more comfortable than a liquid matte, longer-wearing than a satin, and Rs. 300 below the Matte As Hell crayon. Ten shades is a solid range. The limited-edition framing means the shades will not be restocked once gone, which is an argument for buying the one you like now and against building a routine around it.

• Price: Rs. 599 (stated MRP Rs. 599)
• Key detail: Creamy longwear bullet, limited-edition run, shown in 02 Red Rush

Eight hundred and ninety-nine rupees, stated MRP eight hundred and ninety-nine, fifteen shades. Matte As Hell is the product that built SUGAR, and its behaviour on this shelf is the clearest single illustration of how the brand prices: we found it three times in our read - the standard listing, a limited-edition version and an anniversary edition - and all three sat at Rs. 899 with a discount of exactly zero. There is no sale to wait for and no variant that is quietly cheaper. So the decision is a straight one about whether the product is worth Rs. 899 to you, undistorted by any badge, and that is a rarer position to be in than this page has made it sound. The comparison we would actually make is with the Rs. 249 Play crayon four cards up: same format, Rs. 650 less, five shades against fifteen. If you wear a matte crayon occasionally, take the Play. If it is your daily lip, the wider shade range and the formula's fifteen-year reputation are what the money is for - and we have not tested either formula, so that reputation is what we are reporting, not a verdict we have earned.

One thousand and forty-nine rupees, no discount. SUGAR Mettle is the brand's premium tier, and both Mettle lip products in our read sat at full MRP, as did every core-range flagship above them. Set this against the Rs. 174 SUGAR POP Satin Matte Luxe in chapter one - same broad product, a satin-finish bullet lipstick, from the same company, on the same website - and the gap is six-fold. What the Mettle line offers to justify it is a heavier metal-finish casing, a refill-oriented format and a more pigment-dense formula; whether those are worth Rs. 875 to you is a question about how much you value the object as well as the colour, and it is a perfectly legitimate thing to want. What we would push back on is any sense that the premium tier is better value because it is more expensive, or that its full price signals quality the discounted lines lack. On this shelf, discounting tracks which sub-brand a product belongs to, not how good it is. Only one shade, 02 Elizabeth, was in stock when we read - which is a thin range at this price and the main practical reason to hesitate.

• Price: Rs. 1,049 (stated MRP Rs. 1,049)

One thousand two hundred and forty-nine rupees, stated MRP the same, six shades. This is the most expensive single lip product SUGAR was selling on August 1, and the number that gives it context sits in chapter two: the Play Vibe Check liquid lipstick, Rs. 249, same category, same brand, same shelf. Five times the price. We want to be careful here, because it would be easy and wrong to imply the gap is unjustified. Liquid mattes genuinely differ in pigment density, in how evenly they set, and in whether they survive a meal - and a formula that does those things well is worth real money to someone who wears one every day. Equally, we have not worn either, and nothing in a product feed can tell you where on that curve either sits. What the feed does tell you is that neither price is going to move, so the choice is a clean one and you can make it whenever you like. For most buyers we would still start at the cheap end: Rs. 249 answers the question of whether you get on with liquid mattes at all, and Rs. 1,000 is a lot to spend finding out that you do not.

• Price: Rs. 1,249 (stated MRP Rs. 1,249)

Two hundred and forty-nine rupees for three Satin Matte lipsticks, seventy-two per cent off a stated Rs. 897 - which is Rs. 83 a lipstick, against Rs. 174 for the same lipstick bought singly in chapter one. That is the honest headline of this chapter: after fifty listings sitting stubbornly at MRP, the only place on SUGAR's lip shelf where the arithmetic genuinely breaks in your favour is the multipacks. Two hundred and forty-nine rupees is also the same money as one Play crayon or one single-shade Mousse Muse, for three times the product. The catch is the one every multipack carries, and it matters more with lipstick than with most things: you do not choose the shades. A set of three that contains one colour you wear and two you do not has cost you Rs. 249 for one lipstick, which is worse than buying the Rs. 174 single. So this is an excellent purchase if you are relaxed about colour or buying gifts, and a poor one if you have a specific shade in mind. Check the set contents on the listing before you commit - that is the whole decision.

• Price: Rs. 249 (stated MRP Rs. 897)
• Key detail: Three Satin Matte bullets - Rs. 83 a lipstick
• Discount: 72% off, which is Rs. 648

Seven hundred and ninety-nine rupees for ten Satin Matte lipsticks, seventy-three per cent off a stated Rs. 2,990. Eighty rupees a lipstick is the lowest per-unit price anywhere in our ninety-listing read, and it is less than half what the same lipstick costs bought singly. It is also, for perspective, Rs. 250 less than a single Mettle Satin bullet from two cards up. Whether that is a good idea depends on a question this page cannot answer for you: how many lipsticks do you actually want? Ten is a lot. If you wear lipstick twice a month, a set of ten is nine lipsticks going gummy in a drawer and the per-unit price becomes a fiction - the useful figure is what you paid for the ones you use, and if that is two, this cost Rs. 400 each. The people this genuinely suits are heavy wearers, anyone assembling gifts, and households where more than one person will raid it. For everyone else the Set of 3 at Rs. 83 a unit gets you almost the same rate without the drawer full of unworn colour. Shade selection is again not yours to make.

Eight hundred and ninety-nine rupees for three 18-hour liquid lipsticks, sixty-seven per cent off a stated Rs. 2,699 - Rs. 300 a lipstick. This is the most interesting multipack on the shelf because of where it lands between the two liquid lipsticks we have already seen. The Play Vibe Check is Rs. 249 and the Mettle liquid is Rs. 1,249; this sits at Rs. 300 each for a formula rated for eighteen hours of wear, which is a considerably better place on that curve than the raw prices suggest. If a long-wear liquid matte is what you are actually after - the thing you put on before a wedding and do not think about again - this is the pick of this page. The usual multipack caveat applies and applies hard here: three fixed shades, chosen by SUGAR, and liquid mattes are less forgiving of a wrong shade than a sheer balm is. Read the set contents. And a note on the stated Rs. 2,699: that would price each lipstick at Rs. 900, which is not far off what the individual La La Love listings ask, so the sixty-seven per cent here is better supported than most big numbers on this shelf.

• Price: Rs. 899 (stated MRP Rs. 2,699)
