Key Takeaway
BigBasket.pk doesn't stock Liplex cream; elsewhere in Pakistan the 20g pink-lips balm runs about PKR 1,100-1,500. Here's honest pricing plus real in-stock lip-color picks.
BigBasket.pk does not currently stock Liplex cream (the "Liplex Pink Lips" lightening balm made by Derm Care Pvt Ltd), so we cannot quote you a live BigBasket price on it. Across other Pakistani pharmacies and online chemists, the 20g tube typically lists between roughly PKR 1,100 and PKR 1,500, though the exact figure shifts by seller and season.
If you landed here searching for its price, this guide covers what Liplex actually is, realistic price context, how to avoid a fake tube in Pakistan's crowded online market, and the honest lip-colour alternatives β real products, real PKR prices, Cash on Delivery β that BigBasket.pk does carry.
What Is Liplex Cream, Exactly?
Liplex, sold as "Liplex Pink Lips," is a cosmetic balm aimed at lightening dark or unevenly pigmented lips β it is not a colour cosmetic and won't behave like one. It comes in a 20g tube and is positioned as a gentler alternative to harsher lightening actives. Manufacturer listings describe the formula built around rosemary extract, green tea extract, pomegranate extract, licorice extract, lanolin, shea butter, castor oil, avocado oil and almond oil, and the brand markets it as free of kojic acid, hydroquinone and mercury β the three ingredients most associated with skin-lightening risk in unregulated products.
It's typically applied like a lip balm, once or twice daily, with any visible change building gradually over weeks rather than instantly. That matters for expectations: a balm built on plant extracts and emollients sits closer to a nourishing lip mask than a clinical depigmenting treatment, so dramatic, fast lightening isn't realistic from this category of product, regardless of the brand.
Liplex Cream Price in Pakistan
Because BigBasket.pk doesn't list Liplex, we can't quote an official BigBasket price for it β and we won't guess one. From checking pharmacy and online-chemist listings, the picture generally looks like this:
- Typical market price: roughly PKR 1,100β1,500 for the 20g tube, depending on the seller
- Sold on BigBasket.pk: No β it isn't part of our makeup or skincare catalogue
- Product category: pharmacy-dispensed lip-lightening balm, not a colour cosmetic
Prices for pharmacy-dispensed creams like this move more often than makeup prices do, and they can vary noticeably between a bricks-and-mortar chemist in Karachi, a Lahore pharmacy counter, and an online medicine-delivery app β so treat any single number as a starting estimate, not gospel. If price is the real driver behind your search, it's worth asking why: a lightening balm and a pigmented lipstick both address dull or uneven lip colour, just through completely different mechanisms and timelines, and the better value depends on which one you actually need.
Why BigBasket.pk Doesn't Carry It
BigBasket.pk's makeup catalogue is built around colour cosmetics: liquid matte lipsticks, traditional lipsticks, lip gloss and lip shine from brands like Maybelline, Huda Beauty, Sephora, Kryolan and local label Beauty by Amna. Pharmacy-dispensed lightening balms like Liplex sit in a different category β closer to skincare and dermatology than to makeup β which is why you won't find it, or a product exactly like it, on our shelves.
We'd rather say that plainly than list something loosely related and imply it does the same job. What we can offer, honestly, is the other route to better-looking lips: full-coverage colour that hides unevenness the moment you apply it, instead of a treatment formula that works gradually underneath. Neither approach is "better" in the abstract β they solve the same visible concern on completely different timelines, and which one is right for you depends on whether you want a same-day fix or a longer-term change to your natural lip tone.
How to Avoid a Fake Lip Cream in Pakistan's Market
Lip and skin-lightening creams are among the most counterfeited beauty categories in Pakistan's open market, partly because buyers get pulled in by aggressive discounting on unverified listings. If you do buy Liplex or a similar cream elsewhere, a few checks matter more than the price tag:
- Buy only from a registered pharmacy, a hospital-affiliated chemist, or the brand's verified online store β not an unbranded Daraz reseller or a WhatsApp/Instagram seller with no storefront
- Look for a visible DRAP (Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan) registration number and batch/manufacturing details on the box
- Be suspicious of reprinted or blurry labelling, mismatched fonts, or a seal that looks tampered with
- Treat a price far below the going market rate as a red flag, not a bargain
The same caution applies to lip colour products. On BigBasket.pk, every listed item β from the Maybelline Sensational Liquid Matte Lipstick to Huda Beauty's liquid mattes β ships as authentic stock with nationwide Cash on Delivery, so you can inspect it before paying, which is the simplest way to avoid a counterfeit in Karachi, Lahore or Islamabad.
Real BigBasket.pk Alternatives for Pink, Pigmented Lips
If your actual goal is lips that look pink and even today, not in three weeks, colour cosmetics get you there in one swipe. For a budget-friendly full-coverage option, Beauty by Amna's All Day Long liquid matte lipstick is priced at PKR 950 (down from PKR 2,000) and delivers solid, opaque colour without a premium price tag. For a pink-toned shade specifically, Maybelline's Sensational Liquid Matte in 04 Easy Berry (PKR 1,349) leans into a natural berry-pink that reads close to what a "pink lips" search is usually chasing.
If you'd rather add shine and hydration than full matte coverage, the Maybelline Hydrating Lip Lifter Gloss (PKR 2,500) plumps and adds gloss while keeping lips conditioned β closer in spirit to a lip-care product than a flat matte finish. And if you want pigment that survives a full working day in Karachi's humidity, Maybelline's Superstay Matte Ink (PKR 2,500) is built for long wear. None of these treat pigmentation the way a lightening balm claims to β they're colour, applied on top β but they're genuine, in-stock today, and backed by Cash on Delivery, which a random online Liplex listing may not be.
Lip Care Tips for Karachi Humidity and Northern Winters
Whatever you put on your lips, Pakistan's weather works against it. Karachi's humidity can make matte formulas feel heavier and prone to smudging by midday, so blot and set with a light layer rather than piling product on. Lahore and Islamabad winters do the opposite β dry, cold air chaps lips fast, and applying colour straight onto flaky skin only emphasises unevenness, so exfoliate gently and moisturise before any lipstick or gloss goes on.
Sun exposure, frequent tea and smoking are the most common everyday causes of darker or patchier lip colour in Pakistan β exactly the concern products like Liplex are marketed against. A daily lip balm with SPF, drinking enough water, and reaching for a hydrating formula like the Maybelline Lip Lifter Gloss on lower-maintenance days will do more for long-term lip tone than any single tube, cream or lipstick used occasionally.
Common Mistakes
- Buying "Liplex" from an unverified Daraz or Instagram seller at a suspiciously low price instead of a registered pharmacy
- Expecting a lightening balm to work like a lipstick β pigmentation creams need weeks of consistent use, not one application
- Assuming any lipstick or matte formula will "lighten" lips β colour cosmetics cover pigmentation, they don't treat it
- Skipping a patch test before trying a new lip cream, especially on sensitive or already-chapped lips
- Applying full-coverage matte lipstick straight onto dry, flaky lips in winter, which only highlights the unevenness it's meant to hide
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of Liplex cream in Pakistan?+
BigBasket.pk doesn't stock Liplex, so we can't confirm a live price on our own site. Other Pakistani pharmacies and online chemists typically price the 20g tube at roughly PKR 1,100 to PKR 1,500, though it varies by seller and any running discount, so confirm the current price directly before ordering.
Does BigBasket.pk sell Liplex cream?+
No. BigBasket.pk's makeup range focuses on colour cosmetics β lipsticks, liquid mattes and lip gloss β rather than pharmacy-dispensed lightening balms like Liplex. If instant pink, pigmented lips are the goal, in-stock options like Maybelline's 04 Easy Berry liquid matte or Beauty by Amna's All Day Long lipstick are honest alternatives.
Is Liplex cream safe, and does it actually lighten lips?+
Liplex is marketed as free of harsher lightening agents such as kojic acid, hydroquinone and mercury, relying instead on extracts like rosemary, green tea, pomegranate and licorice plus shea butter and plant oils. Results from natural-extract balms tend to be gradual and mild rather than dramatic, so realistic expectations matter, and anyone with persistent lip pigmentation should still consult a dermatologist.
How do I avoid buying a fake Liplex or lip cream in Pakistan?+
Buy only from a registered pharmacy or the brand's verified online store, check for a visible DRAP registration number and batch details on the packaging, and treat prices well below the going rate as a warning sign rather than a deal. Unbranded Daraz resellers and social-media sellers with no storefront carry the highest counterfeit risk.
What's a good alternative if I just want pink, even-looking lips right away?+
A full-coverage liquid matte lipstick or a berry-pink shade gives visibly pink, pigmented lips in one swipe, unlike a lightening cream that needs weeks to show any change. Maybelline's Sensational Liquid Matte in 04 Easy Berry (PKR 1,349) and the Maybelline Hydrating Lip Lifter Gloss (PKR 2,500) both deliver that look with built-in hydration.
Does BigBasket.pk offer Cash on Delivery on lip products across Pakistan?+
Yes, BigBasket.pk ships nationwide, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, with Cash on Delivery available on makeup orders such as lipsticks, liquid mattes and lip gloss.
The Short Version
TL;DR: Liplex is a pharmacy-sold "pink lips" lightening balm (not a lipstick) that BigBasket.pk does not stock; expect roughly PKR 1,100β1,500 for the 20g tube elsewhere. For pink, pigmented lips today, browse BigBasket.pk's makeup range or try the affordable Beauty by Amna All Day Long liquid matte lipstick (PKR 950).
