Whether you wear lipstick every day or not, at some point you have owned/obsessed over/always carried M.A.C’s Ruby Woo—it’s the ultimate matte red that somehow goes with every skin tone, every outfit, and every occasion. But there are more fish in the sea, and they come in all kinds of textures and pay-offs that will take your matte red addiction to a new high.
Wondering how can you play around and have fun with a shade so definitive? The spring/summer 2016 runways saw many versions of it—at Topshop Unique, classic crimson was matched with bold, glossy brows; for Jason Wu, it was an intense scarlet on a clean, bare face and slicked-back buns.
Jenny Packham dared to pair a bright red pucker with electric blue eyeliner on the lids, giving the models’ look a pop vibe.
Or you can keep it sophisticated like Oscar de la Renta—a sculpted red pout on a flawless face and a sleek flick on the eyes.
Scroll through our slideshow to choose from our picks of long-lasting super matte lippies; there’s plenty of inspiration from the runways, too.
