Why red lipstick?
We can all agree that red is an iconic shade of lipstick. A red lipstick is classic, bold, empowering, and versatile so it’s the must have. In honor of the this shade of lipstick and National Lipstick Day I’m sharing the best 5 red lipsticks. All are equally amazing. These red lipsticks will be from the blue-red family since those suit a wide variety of skin tones! You will see different formulas, finishes, and price points so you can pick the best lipstick for you!
The 5 Best Red Lipsticks
- The Lip Bar Liquid Matte Lipstick in “Hot Mama” – Hot Mama is the perfect shade for this fiery red. Now if you want a bold red without the fiery touch opt for Bawse Lady by The Lip Bar! She’s still bold and a great classic red! This liquid lipstick is one of my favorites as well because once you apply it does not budge! I wear many of these lippies under my mask.
- Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in “Uncensored” – The inagural shade for Fenty Beauty’s Stunna Lip Paint formula had to be included in the 5 best red lipsticks list naturally. Rihanna is no stranger to rocking a red lip and Uncensored is a universally flattering shade. The formula is pigment-packed! One layer with the precision applicator is all that you will need.
- NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in “Amsterdam” – Amsterdam is a true red, but what’s even more stand out about this shade is the formula. The NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream is known for being a great formula that is comfortable to wear. It also has a soft matte finish that is easy to wear. While it has a soft matte finish this formula is still rich in pigment. This lipstick is also under $10 so perfect for the beauty beginner.
- KKW Beauty Red Crème Lipstick in “Candy Apple Red” – Candy Apple Red is another true red. Since KKW Beauty Lipsticks are super creamy, moisturizing with a slight luster this make it a great addition to a lipstick collection. So if you’re not into matte finishes grab this shade and it will not disappoint! The pigmentation is buildable so you can customize the intensity. I would also suggest pairing it with a matching liner to define the lips and help hold the application of the lipstick.
- MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in “Ruby Woo” – Undoubtedly Ruby Woo is one of MAC’s most well-known lipstick shades and a best-seller throughout the world. Ruby Woo reminds you of old Hollywood glam and also has a matching lip liner to complete your look. This formula is perfect for the video conference or virtual happy hour.
