To Celebrate World Lipstick Day, We've Curated the Ultimate Red Lipstick Guide

You can never have too many red lipsticks, so we’ve rounded up the best in the business.

 Coco Chanel once said, “When you’re sad, add more lipstick and attack,” and for decades we’ve followed suit. Red lipstick is undoubtedly the most powerful tool in one’s vanity kit with an innate ability to transform one's look instantly. This can also be credited to the fact that there is a red for every skin tone, outfit, and even one’s mood. With new formulas launching almost every day, there are more new lipsticks than you could ever possibly use before they expire. Worry not—matte, glossy, deep or bright, here’s our tried and tested edit of the best red lipsticks in every category.
