These 15 Red Lipsticks Are Nothing Short of Iconic, Period
If you ask me, red lipstick should be considered a neutral. It's by far the most classic shade of lipstick, evocative of both Old Hollywood and Parisian beauty. Red looks good on everyone, and it's the perfect way to add a little something to every look, whether you're going to the office or spending a night on the town.
At this point, the best red lipsticks have accrued cult followings unlike their pink and nude counterparts (save perhaps the iconic Pillow Talk by Charlotte Tilbury). Many people know red lipstick formulas by name, such as MAC Ruby Woo or Dior 999. Below, we've rounded up the absolute best red lipsticks of all time and why they're so iconic.
There's no doubt about it—people absolutely love Ruby Woo. It's one of the most iconic reds out there, and that's because it's flattering on everyone thanks to its blue-leaning undertones that make teeth look whiter. It's not too blue, though, which makes it ideal for all skin tones.
Gucci 25* Goldie Red, also known as Gucci Red, is the quintessential shade from the brand, handpicked by the brand's creative director and marked with the number 25 and a star, two symbols that are constantly woven throughout the House of Gucci's collections.
