A bold red lip is an absolute classic makeup look, and one that will make you look instantly put together even if you’re bare faced. Whether you’re trying to recreate some serious red-carpet vibes or simply want to add some drama to an everyday look, a red lipstick is something every girl should own. If you want to know where to find the best red lipstick for you, here are some brands with the best red lipsticks in different finishes and formulas that you need to go out and get now!
Chanel is the authority on the classic red lip. Their shade Pirate is the perfect blue-red tone that will suit every skin tone. This one comes in a satin finish, but they offer a range of reds in all sorts of finishes. If you want to look every bit the classic French girl, Chanel is the place to shop.
For the ultimate red-carpet red, MAC has a great selection of lipsticks in velvet to matte finishes. A celebrity favourite is MAC’s Ruby Woo, which is a bright blue-toned red, but other great options are Lady Danger and Russian Red.
Leave it to Rihanna to create arguably the best liquid lipstick out there. The Stunna Lip Paint currently only comes in one colour: a universally flattering, bold red tone that is designed to suit every skin tone. If you want amazing staying power and a super pouty lip, Fenty is the brand for you.
Nars is another beauty giant with a large celebrity following. Their Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl is the favourite amongst celebrities such as Taylor Swift and Olivia Munn. The handy pencil shape makes it super easy to get a precise line for a clean, bold lip.
Bite Beauty is a brand totally dedicated to lip products, so they’ve got an amazing range of reds from classic lipsticks, to lip pencils, lip glosses and their unique multisticks. For a deep, bold red, try their Amuse Bouche Lipstick in Sour Cherry, or The Multistick in Mochi.
Donning a red lip doesn’t always have to be high maintenance, and Glossier proves that it can be totally easy to pull off every day. Their Generation G Matte Lipstick is sheer and buildable like a stain, but still looks like a matte lipstick. The shade Zip is a warm red tone that can swing to brick depending on your skin tone, and looks lovely and effortless.
Here’s another low maintenance brand for natural makeup lovers that still want to rock a red lip. RMSBeauty’s Lip2Cheek in Beloved is a wonderful poppy red that will liven up any complexion. Simply dab it onto your lips for a wonderful red stain. Miranda Kerr wore this during her wedding so you know it’s one of the best red lipsticks!
If you want a fool-proof red lipstick that will last all day, Charlotte Tilbury is the place to look. With royals like Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle as fans of her lipstick, you really can’t go wrong. Go for the Matte Revolution lipstick in Red Carpet Red for a stunning, sophisticated look.
For some reason, a lot of the best red lipsticks come in matte formulas that may steer people away with the fear of dry, cracked lips. Bobbi Brown’s Crushed Lip Colour feels just like a lip balm and goes on like a blotted-lip for an easy, subtle take on a red lip. Check out the colours Cherry, Ruby or Cranberry for a perfect red pout.
Stila often flies under the radar, but their Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick range is perfect for anyone who wants their red lip to do exactly that. With fire engine red shades like Beso, or wine reds like Rubino, you’re sure to find the perfect long lasting red lipstick for you.
