In life, it's always the goal to look as good as humanly possible.

Our favorite way to step up your look? A bright red lipstick. Seriously, a good lip color will completely transform, not only what you see in the mirror, but also the way you feel. But we're not just talking about swiping on any old shade here. Maybe it's because love is in the air this time of year, but the only color we want to wear is classic red. Cherry red, Big Apple red, venom red—it goes by many names. But the takeaway? You can't go wrong with a sexy red lipstick incorporated in your makeup routine.
