There is something of an art to wearing red lipstick, from selecting the right tone for your complexion to the finish and how you go about balancing it with the rest of your makeup.
Of the many long-lasting lipsticks out there, an orangey or blue-toned red is often thought of as the most timeless option. A red lip offers instant drama and elegance to a look, but there's one particular way to wear it that never fails. Offering a prime example of this is Scarlett Johansson, who, whilst out in NYC last month, paired the most perfect true-red matte shade with a glowy but subtle face of makeup. This allowed her lips to really pop and become the focal point, whilst also offering a touch of French flair to her overall look.
