A good red is a shade that you’ll return to throughout your life, even if we have a lot of other colors in our lipstick collection. A red lip instantly adds sex appeal to any clothing; it’s a classic look that never goes out of style, and it’s a makeup bag must-have that no woman should be without.
Red lipstick, on the other hand, can feel a little too much at times, especially during the day, and can easily seem untidy (hey, we’ve all been there with stains on our teeth). But it’s certainly a stylish and timeless makeup look that deserves a spot in your collection.
Here are a few simple tips for rocking a red lip like a pro:
Pair it with a corporate look
There isn’t a single hue that makes a lady feel more powerful than red. At work, you’re attempting to make a statement. Or are you preparing a killer presentation? Make a statement with red lipstick! According to studies, women who wear red lipstick are seen to be younger and sharper.
Pair it with a white dress
Every girl’s best outfit is a small white dress. When it comes to mixing red with neutrals, especially white, there’s nothing quite like it. You can’t go wrong with white during corporate events or a red carpet event. A casual get-together with friends, a day at the beach with family, or a high-end get-together are all good examples of occasions where a lovely white dress will complete your incredibly trendy outfit. Don’t forget, though, that when it comes to wearing rouge lippies, the texture is crucial. The best tip is to use matte lipstick.
Pair it with a Dinner date dress
When attempting to put together an evening look, it is all too easy to overthink or go overboard. If you’re not wearing eye makeup, a bright red lip can be the perfect complement to an all-black outfit. If you’re wearing red, try clashing it with a different tone to avoid looking too matchy-matchy.
Fun fact: Did you know that when you wear red lipstick, strangers are more likely to be friendly to you? Consider this the next time you’re attempting to match colors for an evening dinner or after-wedding party.

4 beauty tips to help you rock your Red Lippie perfectly
- Kindly use LIP LINERS. They are not your Enemy!
When using red lipstick, lip liner is essential because it keeps the lipstick in place, prevents leaking, and leaves some color on the lips when the bright red fades away. Red lipsticks can be unforgiving, so red or black lip liner will help shape your lips and create a beautiful base.
- Let your Lip speak for you
Keep your eye makeup simple for a daytime look. A smoky eye and red lip is a bold look that is best reserved for the evening. For good reason, this is a classic rule.
- Pay attention to what you’re wearing
Your tiny black dress, black corporate outfit, or even black Anarkali will look great with classic red lips and black liners. I believe that a black dress and a pair of red lips were designed for each other. Adding too much color to an ensemble, especially with red lips, is not a good idea!
- Select the appropriate texture and finish
Matte reds have always been a staple, and when paired with black liner, you may wear matte red lips without fear of bleeding, smudging, or feathering. Alternatively, you may go for a paler red and add some red lip gloss on top. Don’t forget to line your lips with a lip liner if you opt to use a red lip gloss on its own. For daytime red lips, opt for tints or stains.
