Ride or Die Red Lipsticks
By Jo Ward from Wing it Hair and Makeup Artistry
Everyone knows that a perfect red pout can complete the
eternally classic Pinup make up look. However when it comes to that perfect
red, what is it we all search for? Is it longevity when it comes to how long
before we have to reapply? Or perhaps affordability or feel and texture are the
boxes that we find ourselves trying to tick off when searching for our ride or
die red lipstick?
After researching reviews and personally trying, composed
below is a list of a few of the most highly sort after Red lipsticks.
First of we start our list with a high end brand; Pat
McGrath Labs in the Lux Trance range. From this range the red of
choice was McGrath Muse (original) this is a warm red in colour and is very
beautiful. The features of this lipstick state it to be rich in hydration,
lasting wear and excellent adhesion with zero bleeding. You will also love the
signature packaging that comes with all Pat McGrath labs lipsticks.
Second on our list we have a department store brand; Maybelline in
the color sensational satin lipstick range with the hue of red being 645 Red
Revival. This is a blue based red and has a very creamy hydrating feel to it,
other features of this lipstick are its bold and vibrant pigment and long
lasting formula.
Third we have this little beauty; Bareminerals in
the Statement luxe-shine lipstick range in the colour Srsly Red. This is a true
bright red and is formulated with a mineral pigment. The results are a
lightweight yet full coverage lipstick free.
Next we have an absolute steal. Another department store
brand Rimmel in the lasting finish lipstick range, shade
Alarm. This little number is the cheapest on the list but don’t let the
small price point alarm you about quality, it boasts an up-to 8 hour wear time
and is richly pigmented.
Second to last we have another high end brand CHANTECAILLE in
the lip chic range colour of choice; Zinnia. Some of the features of this
divine lipstick has to offer are the soft easy glide on texture, its Paraben
free formula and intense pigment. This darling red boasts over 300 reviews on
one website alone the majority of which highly recommend.
Last but certainly not least we have a beautiful, Becca brand
lipstick in the range Ultimate Lipstick, shade Garnet. This is a cool rich red
with a moisturizing long wear lip colour. It is Hyaluroric acid infused and
claims to be an 8 hour, no need to reapply wear. The feel of this lipstick is
quite luxurious.
So, there you have it. From high end to department store and
in-between There really is a perfect red out there for everyone regardless of
what you are searching for in your go to ready to wear lipstick.
