For a classic matte red lip, look to Charlotte Tilbury for their Matte Revolution Lipstick ($50), which we must say is revolutionary indeed. While many matte lip products can be drying, this is infused with orchid and lipstick tree extract to moisturise and soothe your kissers.

We’ve got our eye on Rouge Graine (N37), a red that stands out well without being garish. It’s perfect for date night in a LBD too!

Bring out your inner goth with Gucci’s Rouge à Lèvres Gothique Metallic Lipstick ($58), specifically in Goldie Red, a highly popular shade. With black undertones and a shimmery finish, this metallic lip colour reflects light, giving you a sultry and mysterious look both day and night.

Inspired by the seductiveness of cabaret are Louboutin’s newly-launched Matte Fluid Lip Color ($134) liquid lipsticks, all in various tones of red. The lipstick tube itself is a stunner, with a unique magic vial shape and scale patterns reminiscent of a mermaid’s tail.

It is said that Bobbi Brown’s Crushed Lip Color ($44) has the texture of a lip balm, despite being a lipstick - thanks to ingredients like beeswax and vitamins C and E. With a satiny matte texture, this stays on for long periods of time without fading. Go for the shade Blackberry for a luscious festive pout.

#6: Lancome - L'Absolu Rouge Ruby Cream Lipstick ($29.40, U.P. $49)

Lancome’s L'Absolu Rouge range is a great go-to when you need red lippies, for they have tons of shades and sub-ranges for you to pick the perfect one for your pout. We’re zooming in on their Ruby Cream Lipstick ($29.40, U.P. $49 - at time of writing) for its creamy texture and vivid pigments.

The black and gold casing with geometric patterns and an embossing of the brand’s trademark rose brings an ultra chic vibe.

Get intense colour in just one swipe with the Rouge Unlimited Amplified High Pigment Satin Lipstick ($42) by Shu Uemura. We’d go for the shade WN227 - a wine red that’s not too bright, but not overly dark.

In line with the brand’s Japanese origin, the lipstick comes in a stylish red and black casing that appears to be a nod to the art of Japanese lacquering.
