No red lipstick list is complete without MAC’s Ruby Woo in it. If you want your lips to make an entry before you, Ruby Woo is what you need. This pop red colour can be worn by anyone, no matter your skin tone. It is highly pigmented and stays put for at least 6 hours. However, your lips might need a little lip balm after a few hours because it is a really matte formula. Since it is a blue-based red, it makes your teeth look whiter. #Win!

Glossy stains are a category to themselves. They aren’t lipsticks, nor are they lip glosses. They are lip stains in a glossy finish. The liquid consistency may seem sticky on application, but it feels better within five minutes later and leaves you with luscious, cherry-red lips. It can last up to four hours. This shade can look a little overwhelming on fair-skinned girls, and is best for evening wear thanks to its intensely glossy finish.

8. Nars Audacious Lipstick, Rita
