Looking for a quick fix in the beauty department? Try a bold red lip for an instant pick-me-up that's simply ravishing and requires minimal effort. 

One swipe of this sultry color can make you feel glamorous, confident and feminine, whether you're wearing casual denim during the day or a flirty cocktail dress at night. 

Plenty of pretty stars are rocking this hot beauty trend right now and we couldn't be more pleased. Taylor Swift almost always finishes her classic ladylike look with a signature red lip color, and we spied Sophia Bush and Julianne Hough at recent events following suit.

Emmy Rossum's red pout was pure perfection when paired with a sleek top bun, and Mandy Moore was seriously sexy modeling scarlet lips—the perfect accent to her black leather jacket. Beauty tip: Keep your eye makeup light and simple to add emphasis on your lovely lips.
