An Ode to a Dark Red Lip—Editors Will Wear These 11 Shades Until the End of Time

As beauty editors, it should come as no surprise that we’re constantly hoarding new shades of lipstick. Although it’s fun to keep a rotation of colors (from pink and brown all the way to red), there’s one shade we always come back to—a deep, rich red. A bold lip shade like this one can really take your makeup from zero to 100 in a minute. It instantly polishes a look up and looks good on every single skin tone. It’s also equal parts dramatic, vampy, powerful, and feminine. If you’re curious about which dark red lipsticks we reach for most, keep scrolling. The Who What Wear beauty team is sharing all their favorites ahead.
