■Your skin tone/coloring: M.A.C NW 20
■Best red lipstick? : Burberry Military Red
■Best red lipgloss? : A Kiko one or more recently Guerlain gloss d’Enfer in Red Pow
■Best red lip liner? : I have just a MUFE one and I never use it, I prefer applying red lippies with a pencil and setting with powder but without a lip liner
Skin tone: fair with neutral/cool undertones
Best red lipstick: either Guerlain Rouge G in Greta (especially for winter, since it’s a bit darker), or my new favorite, Kanebo Sensai The Lipstick in Tsuybeni 09 (oh god, even more expensive than the Guerlain – $55! – but a present from my mom! It stays on forever and looks amazing)
Red lip gloss: I’m loving YSL Golden Gloss in 17 (golden cherry) – moisturizing but also amazingly pigmented, and tastes good
Lip liner: I bought a Sephora Waterproof liner a couple of years ago, and it works well for my red lipsticks. I don’t always wear lip liner though….
Your skin tone/coloring: NC25-30.
Best red lipstick? Tom Ford Diabolique! That’s my power red.
Best red lipgloss? Not a gloss girl so I really don’t own that many. I’m going to say Dior Ceremony Red from last year’s holiday collection.
Best red lip liner? I only own one, which is Too Faced Perfect Red. It works well with most reds I own!
My coloring is light with warm undertones, so I love orange-leaning reds, as blue-toned reds makes my complexion look stark. Favorite reds are in lipstick are either LimeCrime’s Retrofuturist (I gave up looking after I bought this one nearly two years ago), or Revlon’s Lip Butter in Candy Apple (depending on which look I’m going for). In lipgloss I think it would be Pierre Rene in 27, which is a glittering red that is fully opaque in one coat (!). When it comes to lip liner, I’ve only ever tried Isadora Perfect Lip Liner in Prime Red, but that one works just fine with me.
Candy apple is a great subtle red. I like that the balmy formula lets a little of your lip color show through so it looks almost a bit berry-red on me like MAC ladybug. If you ever feel like looking for another orange-red, I’d recommend Guerlain Genna, that’s the best I’ve tried so far. I’ll have to check out the LimeCrime if I can find it anywhere.
Thanks for the advice! I’ll check out Genna! Although the LimeCrime one is good with lasting power, it does make my already quite dry lips a little dry for the duration of the wear (nothing a thin layer of balm on top can’t solve though!), but it is (if not the best out there) a good choice for a retro lip 🙂
Your skin tone/coloring: C4 / NC30 – neutral light tan Asian
Best red lipstick? MAC Ruby Woo. Despite that it’s the most drying formula on the market, it truly is the perfect slightly cool red for my skin
Best red lipgloss? Don’t like the red glossy look myself.
Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry! Works with cool and warm reds somehow!
Im NC30 and use Ruby Woo as my red staple. have NOT encountered ultra dry situations.. id recommend using MAC lip conditioner and exfoliate regularly.. also use Mac Cherry as my GO TO red lip liner
Skin tone/coloring: MAC NW/C 15. I’m cool toned but have pink undertones so I can either play up the pink or cover it with yellow.
Best red lipstick: Guerlain Genna
Best red lipgloss: don’t really wear lipgloss, Though I did really like a YSL lip lacquer that I can’t remember the number of now because I hated that my hair stuck to it.
Best red lipliner: don’t have one. I’d probably try to use a clear lipliner to keep it from feathering if needed. If anyone can recommend an orange-red lipliner I’d be appreciative!
Mac Redd is very good. I pair it with Mac Lady Danger and Armani Lip Maestro #401.
Sasha– Estee Lauder has a cool red and warm red in their Double Wear lip pencil. The warm is called “Coral,” but it’s definitely a MAC Lady Danger type red.
Thanks for the recommendations, I’ll have to check both of them out!
Your skin tone/coloring: NW20
Best red lipstick? MAC Viva Glam I
Best red lipgloss? Is it cheating to say YSL Glossy Stain #9? If not then probably a Dior gloss, though I prefer to put clear or clear-sparkly gloss on top of a lipstick if I want colour.
Best red lip liner? I’ve never worn lip liner, it always seems to find itself at the bottom of my wishlist despite the fact I really need it.
Thanks for mentioning it, I think that’s the YSL red I was trying to recall for my post haha!
■Your skin tone/coloring: Mac nc50
■Best red lipstick? Wet N Wild Stoplight Red. Beats all the reds in my collection!
■Best red lipgloss? I have to cheat on this one, NYX Monte Carlo, its like a gloss and lipstick together. It dries matte.
■Best red lip liner? The only one I own is NYX Deep Red. I like it because its not too dark or too light.
Your skin tone/coloring: MAC C8, MUFE #18
Best red lipstick? MAC Ruby Woo followed by Mac Lady Danger
Best red lipgloss? I don’t like red lipgloss :-/
Best red lip liner? NYX hot red
■Your skin tone/coloring: I use Alima Pure Olive 1.5, I’ve been matched to MUFE 120 at a sephora.

Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry
Skin Tone Coloring: Medium/Deep, NC 42/44,
Best Red Lipstick: MAC’s Russian Red (for me).
Best Red Lipgloss: I don’t really wear red lip gloss, but if I had to pick, MAC’s Strawberry Malt-great pigmentation and can be worn alone for a sheer-y type red (limited edition, part of the Archie Girls Collection).
Best Red Lipliner: NYX’s Red, but most of the time I use a color correcting pencil for lining red lips.
Your skin tone/coloring: medium, tans easily, brown hair/eyes
Best red lipstick? Rouge d’Armani #400…I have got many red lipsticks and many classics,too (eg. Russian Red, Chanel Dragon)…#400 is the best I have…perfect texture, amazing colour!!! love love love!!!
Best red lipgloss?I don’t own many lipglosses, so I can’t really say.
Best red lip liner? probably Mac Cherry (but again, I don’t have many other red lip liners for comparison).
NC43
MAC Russian Red
I dont wear red gloss

Best reds in general;
Revlon Matte ‘Really Red’
Revlon Lipbutter ‘Candy Apple’
Rimmel Kate Moss ’01’
Dior Addict Extreme ‘Fireworks’
I have neutral-leaning-cool fair skin. In MAC, I can wear either NW15 or NC15.
Best red lipstick: Lancome Rouge in Love in “Sequence of Love”– this is my HG red.
Best red gloss: not a red if worn by itself (more fuchsia), but if layered over a red lipstick, MAC’s “Love Alert” Dazzleglass is gorgeous.
Best red lipliner: I don’t want my lipstick moving AT ALL when I wear red, so I go for Estee Lauder’s Double Wear Lip Pencil in “Red” to make sure my lips are bulletproof. It’s a bit drying, but if you are prone to feathering, it’s a lifesaver.
■Your skin tone/coloring: in MAC NC 40 , CLinique even better # 16
■Best red lipstick? Russian Red
■Best red lipgloss? Russian Red
■Best red lip liner? MAC CHERRY
Skintone: MAC SFN “Medium Dark”
Best red lipstick: Currently loving Revlon “Fire & Ice” (pinky red) and Barry M “Pillarbox Red” (warm red)
Gloss & Liner: I don’t wear lipgloss, and I’m on the hunt for a one-shade-fits-all red liner.
■Your skin tone/coloring: Warm/Fair
■Best red lipstick? Rimmel Alarm
■Best red lipgloss? No can do. At my age, red lipgloss seeps into the fine lines around my mouth.
■Best red lip liner? I like the Besame one.
Your skin tone/coloring: somewhere between MAC NC42-44 range
Best red lipstick? MAC Charmed I’m Sure
Best red lipgloss? MAC Strawberry Amlt

Best red lipstick: Wet N Wild 910D Red Velvet
Best red lipgloss: Hourglass Siren
Best red lip liner: Prestige WATERPROOF LIPLINER in True Red. Just as good as the MUFE Aqua Lip in 8C. 😉
◾Your skin tone/coloring: NW15/brunette/green eyes
◾Best red lipstick? Ellis Faas “Ellis Red”
◾Best red lipgloss? E.l.f. “Merry Cherry”
◾Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry
Your skin tone/coloring: Light (NC20-ish)
Best red lipstick? Viva Glam or Dubonnet
Best red lipgloss? I usually don’t wear red gloss, but if I did it would be Cult of Cherry
Best red lip liner? Mahogany
Skintone: fair, cool-toned (MAC NW 15-20)
Best red lipstick: I have a few since there are so many shades of red. MAC Dubonnet, New York Apple, Capricious and Red Dwarf (LE); Guerlain Habit Rouge; Clarins Redwood
Best red lipgloss: Joe Fresh Bordeaux or MAC Spanking Rich (I’m not really a lipgloss fan)
Best red lipliner: I never use any colour lipliner but invisible (Lise Watier) or MAC Dervish which is the colour of my lips. I hate that look of the line that is left behind if a strong coloured lipstick starts to wear away. I’d rather have line the shade of my natural lips so I don’t like bizarre if my lippie wears off and I don’t have time to replace it.
Your skin tone/coloring: Pale with yellow undertones
Best red lipstick? Clinique “Merlot” and Estee Lauder “Maraschino” (both listed by the FDAs website for lead just recently which really made me sad)
Best red lipgloss? MAC Russian Red
Best red lip liner? I’m not big on the lip liner, I’ve never been too successful with it.
Thank you for the info on the FDA. I just went to their website to check if I had lipsticks from their list and I do! Some of my favorites actually! MAC: Show Orchid (fav bright pink), Blood Red (fav dark wine-red color).
I know they say since the amount of lead in the lipstick is very low and even a lower percentage of it will be “consumed” it won’t be a threat I’d rather know and be safe than sorry.
There are only certain batches of each lipstick affected by the lead. Look on your tube and confirm whether the batch numbers match before you throw it out.
Your skin tone/coloring: NC20
Best red lipstick? I like dark reds with a very slight brown undertone so that the color doesn’t lean cool or warm (I think that color is called oxblood). Black Radiance in 5005 Sahara Red is my favorite. I also like sheer candy apple reds too. My go-to is Revlon Lipbutter in Cherry Tart (if I want a more red-pink) and Candy Apple (if I want a slightly orange based red).
Best red lipgloss? I don’t own any.
Best red lip liner? I’ve never used lip liner.
1. Medium (UD Naked 5.0/MUFE HD 123/BECCA Noisette)
2. Guerlain Rouge G in Gala for power/pin-up red & Ellis Faas Milky Lips L201 Blood Red for…blood red lips! The latter looks amazing on all my friends.
3. Ellis Faas Glazed Lips L301 Sheer Blood Red. I’ve been looking for a better quality dupe of Sephora Ultra Shine Lip Gloss in 53 Red Fizz, but haven’t had any luck. Everything seems is too gritty or sticky.
4. No idea! I have this L’Oreal one since college that I use on occasion. I’m not a fan of lip liners; they always dry my lips out, feel uncomfortable, & don’t seem to prolong my lipstick’s wear. Maybe I need to invest in better quality ones?
Your skin tone/coloring:
pale/yellowish
Best red lipstick?
I have so many, but I think the best of the best for me are MAC Viva Glam I and Sephora’s cream lip stain in Always Red. I wish I could find a lipstick that is the same color as that lipstain.. it is truly the perfect red for me, but sometimes it is overwhelmingly drying.
Other favorite reds are MAC Diva, Russian Red, Lady Danger, and YSL Rouge Volupte Red Muse. NARS Fire Down Below comes close, but it does not have good coverage for me and it ends up looking really dry really fast (I always need to line & use gloss to make it look even, but even then I’m not always happy). It is such a beautiful color, but I don’t like the texture.
Best red lipgloss?
I have yet to find one I’m satisfied with.. When I want glossy lips, I just dab a little Buxom pink/purple gloss over the lipstick.
Best red lip liner?
I have various Sephora nano lipliners and also NYX Hot Red. I like the Sephora ones a lot – I can’t get myself to buy expensive lipliners (though I would love to try MAC Cherry).
Skin Tone: Pale Pale Pale- Bobbi Brown Alabaster/Porcelain are the only shades I’ve ever found that match me.
Red Lipstick- Chanel Rouge Coco in Cambon is at the top of my spring rotation (retired Rouge Noir for the summer)
Red Lipgloss- MAC Cult of Cherry (Cult is a VERY good word for it!)
Red Lipliner- Chanel Carmin (I’m down to the nub on my current one)
Rouge Coco Cambon is gorgeous 😀 it has been forever on my wishlist.
Skin tone: Very fair with yellow undertones.
Red Lipstick: MAC Russian Red
Red Lip gloss: Sephora Cream Lip Stain in 01 (yeah not a gloss, but the tube looks like one!! :). And I layer gloss on top to keep it shiny so it looks like one)
Red Lip Pencil: MUFE Aqua Lip in 8c.
NC15
MAC Russian Red and Ruby Woo
I don’t like to wear red lipglosses… call me crazy 🙂
I like MAC Cherry and Revlon Colorstay in Red
Your skin tone/coloring: Neutral Beige/NW25-30 depending on the season.
Best red lipstick? Personally, my best red is Chanel Incandescence.
Best red lipgloss? MAC Red Devil; a pretty red with gold shimmer throughout.
Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry lip liner.
■Your skin tone/coloring: M.A.C NW 20
■Best red lipstick? : YSL Rouge Pur Couture in Le Rouge (1)
■Best red lipgloss? : Tie between MAC Totally Fab Dazzleglass and MAC Cult of Cherry
■Best red lip liner? : MUFE Aqua Rouge (I believe that’s what the pencils are called?) in 8C I really like the primer/liner from Bite Beauty but it’s colorless so it doesn’t count as a red lip liner… but it’s good because it’s universal 😛
* Your skin tone/coloring: Medium, olive (MAC C4, UD Naked 6.0)
* Best red lipstick? I can’t pick just one: NYX Chic Red, NARS Scarlet Empress, Armani Lip Maestro 400, Revlon Lip Butter Red Velvet for more subtlety. Virtually all of my red lipsticks are blue-based reds. Also, NYX does nice reds – Snow White is also very nice.
* Best red lipgloss? Not a huge fan of red glosses, but I’ll reach for YSL Glossy Stain #11 Rouge Gouache fairly often, or for a more conventional gloss, NYX Plush Red works well enough. The Glossy Stain can be applied as a subtle stain for work, which looks really good.
* Best red lip liner? NXY Plush Red
-Your skin tone/coloring? MUFE 110
-Best red lipstick? Kite Moss for Rimmel in 01 and 10 (liquid lipstick goes to WnW “Red my Mind”)
-Best red lipgloss? : NYX girls gloss in Frosted Plum
-Best red lip liner? : Jordana Sedona Red (granted I’ve only tried 3)
Skin tone: Nutmeg brown, cool gold undertones ( MAC NC55, MUFE #178).
Best red lipstick: Mac’s Minerialized Rich “All Out Gorgeous”. Wears better than the infamous Ruby Woo (which I love despite the critics) and Russian Red.
Best red lipgloss: NYX Xtreme Lip Creme in Absolute Red.
Best red lip liner: Mac dupes galore, all by NYX – favorite is Deep Red.
I love blue-reds and deep, dark reds.
Skin tone/coloring: NW15 at most (i.e. ghostly pale), dark hair/eyes. Snow White 🙂
Best red lipstick: Guerlain Garconne, with runner up Shiseido RD607 (Lacquer Rouge) and MUFE Rouge Artist Natural N45. The first is my fave classic red, the second is a really lovely dark dramatic red, and the third is a sheerer cherry red.
Best red lipgloss: Burberry Hibiscus, or maybe one of Bobbi Brown’s (Hot)? I don’t have many red glosses.
Best red lipliner: I don’t use lip liner; have no idea.
Skin tone/coloring: light to medium with olive undertones
Best red lipstick: Maybelline Red Revolution
Best red lipgloss: MAC Strawberry Malt (Archie’s Girl Collection)
Best red lip liner: never used one
🙂
Your skin tone/coloring: light/neutral
Best red lipstick? Urban Decay Theodora lip pencil. Is that a lipstick? I’m not sure!
Best red lipgloss? I have an Illamasqua intence lipgloss succubus
Best red lip liner? I don’t own any so I’m not sure
Your skin tone/coloring: NC10/15. More cool toned than true neutral.
Best red lipstick? I could never just choose one, but I adore Smashbox Be Legendary in Grenadine. I generally prefer my blue-based reds, but I can pull off the occasional orange-red if it leans more neutral. I love the stark contrast it can create.
Best red lipgloss? Not a big red gloss person, but Revlon’s Super Lustrous lipgloss in Fire is stunning.
Best red lip liner? I get a gratuitous amount of use out of my Covergirl lip liner in Passion. It definitely leans warm, though, so I am looking for a good blue-based one.
Red lipstick: Mac New York Apple and Mac on hold, I know neither of them is pure red, but this are the only ones I have an use. I´m more of a pink lip girl, and when I want red this two work for me.
Lipgloss: Just a clear gloss over any of the two lipsticks above for shine.
Lip liner: I don´t have a red lip liner but Jordana 14 Rust works for me.
My skintone is NW15.
New York Apple was the first MAC lipstick I ever purchased (had just moved to New York, and it was the most vampy color I’d ever attempted, so it seemed appropriately daring)! An oldie but a goodie.
I’m a NW35/40, and the main red lipstick I use is Cle De Peau’s R1. I consider that the final word in lipstick, all else is auxiliary/”second string”. I am surprised no one else has shown love to R1. I do have Burberry’s Military Red. But I reach out for R1 more.
Your skin tone/coloring:
Medium dark/tan with golden-olive undertones
MAC NC40-42, NARS Syracuse, Bobbi Brown 5 Honey, MUFE HD 153 Golden Honey, Guerlain 23 Dore Naturel.
Best red lipstick?
Can I say Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon?
Oh well, I also love Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro in 400 The Red (Hollywood) & Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick in Icon.
Best red lipgloss?
M·A·C Russian Red Lipglass or Hourglass Extreme Sheen in Siren if I want metallic finish.
Best red lip liner?
I don’t use red lip liner, I use MUFE Lip Line Perfector, it’s a clear lip liner.
Oh thanx ive got a lot of recs to try,im the same colouring as you.I dont have the confidence to wear red bcoz ive got big lips and dont like to draw attention to them :-),but if someday i feel brave i can try these colours.

MUFE # 8 or MAC Russian Red
MUFE Aqua dual gloss #8
MUFE Aqua lip liner # (forgot the number )
skin tone: medium fair with neutral undertones
best red lipstick: it changes! currently i feel the best in NARS Heat Wave, but i also love OCC Lip Tar in NSFW. my other favorites are NARS Afghan Red and Lush Emotional Brilliance in Power.
best red lipgloss: i don’t have one! not a fan of super shiny finishes. but my favorite red lip balm is Fresh Passion, does that count?
best red liner: I use Urban Decay 24/7 liner in Ozone for all my lipsticks, so none. again.

~Mac NC 37
~Cover girl hot, maybelline very cherry, I also love the way ruby woo looks on but it’s soooo drying!
~Mac Russian red is the only red gloss I own
~I don’t own any red lip liners I usually use a clear one to prevent bleeding
Your skin tone/coloring: fair, neutral leaning a bit warm
Best red lipstick? I really like On Fire Red from Maybelline’s Color Sensational Vivids line. I bought it without thinking too much about it and was sort of shocked to see how great the color was for me.
Best red lipgloss? If you can count it as a gloss, I recently got Revlon’s Just Bitten balm stain in Romantic and really like it. I’m a little chicken about wearing red lips to the office, but this works really well for me.
Best red lip liner? I use nude liner if I use one at all, so I can’t help there.
I’m a MAC NC 35 – Asian
Best Red lipstick – Bobbi Brown Old Hollywood
Your skin tone/coloring: Medium (NC30)
Best red lipstick? Chanel Rouge Coco in Gabrielle
Best red lipgloss? MAC Strawberry Malt lipglass
Best red lip liner? Nyx Hot Red lipliner
Your skin tone/coloring: I’ll get specific for once! Light/Neutral with golden-olive tone.

Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry
Your skin tone/coloring: very fair with pink undertones
Best red lipstick? OCC lip tar in Radiate
Best red lipgloss? NARS larger than life lip gloss in Hollywoodlawn
Best red lip liner? Sephora nano lip liner in 20 real red or NYX slim lip pencil in 817 hot red
My coloring – Neutral 5-10 (if MAC had a match for me)
Best red lipstick – Chanel Dragon Rouge Allure Lacque. simply stunning. no other product compares.
Skintone/Coloring: Fairly light, very neutral; dark features.
Lipstick: I don’t know if I have just one favorite! As long as it doesn’t pull orange, or is too warm, I’ll wear it.
Gloss: If I’m going for red lips, I want full-opacity, which very few glosses provide; they can also be a bit messy. I prefer a lipstick of my choice layered under a clear gloss. I also have more variety, and at a lower cost.
Liner: Wet n’ Wild; I don’t know the name/number off-hand, but it is the most neutral red I’ve come across. It’s not very creamy, and takes a bit of pressure to apply, but ity stay’s put all day.
Your skin tone/coloring: Fair with freckles and redness.
Best red lipstick? MAC Russian Red. Armani #400 is also gorgeous.
Best red lipgloss? I don’t have any red glosses – too messy.
Best red lip liner? I use Cargo The Reverse (flesh colored) with red lipstick and NYX Hot Red to redden up any corals or reddish-pink lipsticks.
Skin colouring: NC45
Best Red lipstick: Hourglass ICON liquid lipstick
Best red lipgloss: L’Occitane Ruban Rouge
Best red lipliner: MAC Brick
Skin tone/coloring: NW-20, light with olive undertone
Best red lipstick? Mac Dubonnet (HG red for me)
Best red lipgloss? Lime Crime carousel gloss in Candy Apple (though I don’t wear it much at all- not a fan of gloss)
Best red lip liner? I just use a cheap Revlon liner. It works well enough, though I’ll probably cave and buy Urban Decay’s Ozone liner soon so I can use it with any lip color.
Your skin tone/coloring: NC05, extremely fair with neutral-yellow undertones
Best red lipstick? I love MAC Russian Red, but a new favorite is Dita Von Teese Art Deco lipstick in Muse Red. Super moisturizing matte!
Best red lipgloss? Not a lipgloss, but a lip lacquer, The discontinued Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon. Wish they would bring it back!
Best red lip liner? MAC Cherry, hands down. My lipsticks used to bleed like crazy until I started using it.
