Ain’t nothing like a classic red lip—no dispute there. But it’s more tempting than ever to shake things up. Here, find a few super-easy ways to remix the universally-beloved red lip—trust that if Marilyn Monroe were alive today, she’d be all over ’em.
1. Glitter Bomb Them
Since her majesty Pat McGrath unveiled her #LUST004 lip kits—teaming creamy matte lip shades and micro-fine glitter together—sparkly lips have been seen *everywhere*—from the Versace runway to the VMAs red carpet (on Naomi Campbell no less). As conceptual as they are, they’re relatively easy to achieve. Just paint on your red lip, apply a thin coat of gloss, and then press the glitter carefully on the lips. If you don’t want to go full-pout with the sparkles, try the “crescendo of glitter” McGrath applied at DKNY Spring 2017.
