Currently Loving: A Red Wine Lip

Jan 22, 2013 at 4:00am by Michelle Phan

Hi everyone,

I love experimenting with new beauty looks and right now, I’m loving a red wine lip. Although red wine stained teeth may not make the best statement, red wine stained lips are elegant and have an air of sophistication about them.

The best thing about a red wine lip is that it’s flattering on all complexions. If you have fairer skin (like me), stick with a wine color that is close to a berry shade. And the darker your complexion is, the deeper your wine color can be.

  1. L’Oreal Colour Riche Balm – Plush Plum 
  2. Bite Beauty Luminous Crème Lipstick – Mulberry
  3. Hourglass Cosmetics Femme Rouge Velvet Crème Lipstick – Plum Wine 
  4. NARS Lipstick – Scarlet Empress
  5. Maybelline Color Sensational Lip Color – Deepest Cherry 

When going for a bold red wine lip, you’ll want to lock the color in the place. Apply a lip liner to create a barrier that will keep the color from feathering. Choose a liner that matches your natural lip color, rather than one that matches the wine shade, to avoid the look of an outlined lip.

And even though red wine lips can be dramatic, don’t forget to smile!

      i have really fair skin, but my lips are naturally very pigmented so i don't feel that scared to try really dark lipstick - my favourite at the moment is 107 from the rimmel kate moss matte range! HTTP://CLOUDSANDCUTICLEOIL.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK/ xx

      I'm totally in love with red wine lips!
      I have dark skin, so I have been experimenting with all kinds of red lipsticks and I ended up collecting them because I love the results of every shade on my lips. Plus, my teeth look whiter O.O I have very white teeth. I'll be uploading my pic very soon Mish! =)

      My favorite statement lip color of the moment: BRIGHT RED. I swish hydrogen peroxide and mouth wash around my mouth first for those pearly white teeth.

      I loved the 1st one . One tip I would like to share is that always line your lips before apply red lipstick. Apply one coat bloat it and than apply other coat .

      My favourite lipstick to wear now is red :D On winter I like to keep my eyes simple so I can put strong colours on my lips :) like this one by Yves Rocher and it's a moisturizing cream lipstick in colour "Rouge Coquelicot"

      http://www.yvesrocherusa.com/images/catalog/products/zoom1/35231.jpg

      My favorite isn't a red wine lipstick, but it's unmistakably red. After searching for a few years for the perfect "unmistakably red, but not IN YOUR FACE screen siren red" (how I described my perfect red, LOL), I have finally found it: Sephora rouge shine in #33. Dab it on for a nice red stain, apply straight from the tube for more color with the perfect amount of shine, blot it for a great muted red that doesn't turn pink. It's neither too blue nor too orange and has just enough shimmer to add pretty shine and dimension. After spending tons of money on MAC, Urban Decay, NARS, Tarte, and countless drugstore tubes, I'm absolutely tickled that I'm so happy with a $12 tube from Sephora. To anyone hunting for an awesome red: try this one!

      I agree with Anywa, you don't really put in a lot of effort into your videos or your articles anymore.

      ..and you're actually more medium to tan rather than fair skinned.
