Finish:<\/strong>\u00a0matte |\u00a0Available red shades:<\/strong>\u00a09<\/p>\n Uoma Beauty<\/p>\n Why we love it:<\/strong> Uoma Beauty’s Badass Icon Matte Lipstick bears the name of one of the most iconic singers: Sade. Her signature red lip is one that we’ve been obsessed with for ages, and it’s one that makeup artist Lisa Eldridge favors on melanin-rich skin tones. \u201c[This is] a beautiful, bright poppy red with a creamy formula that delivers a hefty dose of color in one swipe,” she says. P.S. Those who love a high-shine finish will love Uoma Beauty’s Black Magic Hypnotic Impact High Shine Lipstick.<\/p>\n Finish:<\/strong>\u00a0matte |\u00a0Available red shades:<\/strong>\u00a05<\/p>\n Before we dive in, let’s get this out of the way: anyone<\/em> can wear whatever red lipstick<\/strong> they like, full-stop. “The right red is the one that makes you feel good,” Los Angeles-based makeup artist Fiona Stiles, whose clients include Margot Robbie, Gabrielle Union, and Lily Collins, previously told Allure<\/em>.<\/p>\n However, you can expedite finding a red lipstick you love by considering your skin tone and your skin’s undertone. New York City-based makeup artist Diane Kendal previously told Allure<\/em> that red shades with blue undertones give cool-toned, fair-to-light-medium complexions a more radiant appearance and even make teeth look whiter. For warm, medium skin tones, Kendal suggested orange-red shades\u2014”Intense, yes, but they make olive skin glow by bringing out its golden tones,” she says. As for deeper skin tones, she recommended red hues “with a lot of pink,” which she said works beautifully against dark complexions.<\/p>\n We all love the look of freshly-applied lipstick, but after a few hours (or drinks), things can start to look messy. But, don’t fret, because there are quite a few ways to make your look last for hours on end. Back in the day (2010 to be exact), New York City-based makeup artist Peter Phillips previously gave Allure<\/em> editors a few tips on ensuring any lip look stays put\u2014and these hacks are still used by our staff to this day.<\/p>\n When Allure<\/em> tests a product, our editors look at it from every angle in an effort to best serve you.
