Perfect Red Lipsticks For Darker Skin Tones

Today is National Lipstick Day where you are encouraged to rock your favourite lippie with pride! When you think of lipstick, the first thing that comes to mind is the classic red.

Red lipstick is like the little black dress - a staple in your wardrobe whether you are into makeup or not. It comes in a variety of different forms from creamy, matte, glossy with blue or orange undertones so you really have to do your homework to decide which one works for you.

Once you have found the perfect red lipstick you should hold onto it for dear life and never let it out of your sight. Oh yeah and pray that the brand never discontinues it. Here are our five best red lipsticks for Black and Asian women.

Fenty Beauty Uncensored

Last but not least is the powerhouse that is Fenty Beauty. Not a lipstick - more like a lip-quid which is a weightless, long-wear liquid lipstick with a soft matte finish. Uncensored is described as a universal red that looks good on all skin tones.

Priced at £19.00

MAC Ruby Woo

This is the most iconic and popular red lipstick on the market. Our readers and writers just love it because it suits every shade. It is matte with blue undertones and extremely long-wearing.

Priced at £17.50

Pat McGrath Elson

This brand has only been around for a short while but has already made an impact. This is a modern matte lipstick which is luxurious and richly pigmented.

Priced at £37.00

MDMflow Supreme

You cannot get any cooler than MDMflow - this brand which is inspired by 90s hip hop do a cracking red. Supreme is an intensely pigmented creamy semi-matte lipstick which encased in their iconic golden bullet.

NARS Heatwave

I have not met anyone who has anything bad to say about this brand and the same goes to their red lipsticks. Like Ruby Woo, Heatwave is a cult classic but available in three different formulas - sheer, satin and semi-matte.

Priced at £23.00

So there you go, now you have a fabulous list of red lipstick that will give you that hot girl summer.
