We're Pretty Sure Taylor Swift Would Approve of Sabrina Carpenter's "Garnet Glow" Lipstick

Sabrina Carpenter is hot off her first-ever Coachella performance. She's recently released a viral music video (yes, I'm referring to "Please, Please, Please" featuring Saltburn's Barry Keoghan), and her song, "Espresso," is considered a strong contender for becoming the song of the summer. If you ask me, the girl can't lose.
Music success aside, Carpenter recently made her runway debut at Vogue World in Paris. During the event, she sashayed around the iconic Place Vendôme wearing a custom Jacquemus look. It was inspired by retro swimwear, and as such, she wore a floor-length red striped skirt with an Old Hollywood headscarf. It was all very chic, but as a beauty editor, I honed in on her wine-colored lipstick.
There are two reasons for this. First, she doesn't normally wear red lipstick. She tends to use blush as her stand-out beauty product. Second, once I learned the exact red lipstick she wore, I realized that it was from the same brand that Taylor Swift is rumored to love. That's right—the friends and touring colleagues reach for the same brand of red lipstick. Keep scrolling to see which one it is.
The Look
But first, it would be a disservice to not share Carpenter's full look. It expertly marries Old Hollywood style with summertime color and maximalism. I love it.
Here's an up-close view of her lipstick. It's a deep, dark, wine-stained shade of red.
The Exact Lipstick
Here's the exact lipstick she wore: Pat McGrath's Dramatique Mega Lip Pencil in Garnet Glow. The brand describes the color as a deep cabernet.
I think this is the perfect red lipstick for an old Hollywood vibe. Even though I tend to go for brighter, orangier shades for summer, Carpenter is convincing me to reach for this richer, darker, and more luxurious shade.
Funnily enough, we're 99% sure Taylor Swift also wears Pat McGrath red lipstick. She reportedly wears Pat McGrath Labs LiquiLust Legendary Wear Matte Lipstick ($34) in Elson 4. Unsurprisingly, that shade is sold out, but the brand offers a "Taylor-made" lip kit inspired by Swift.
Question: Do you think Carpenter and Swift share makeup recs? Follow-up question: Can I get in on that group chat, please?
