Looking for the perfect Dark Red Liquid Lip Shade!

[marissa0812]

Hi everyone! I have been on the hunt for the past few weeks to find the 'perfect' Dark Red Liquid Lipstick (doesn't have to be liquid, but definitely matte.) I haven't been able to find a true dark red, anything that I find is either a berry or a brown/brick undertone which I don't want. Since classic reds have a blue undertone, I am looking for that hue, but just darker, like a red wine (lol). But I don't know what's out there. I'm going for that fall vampy vibe, but in that specific shade, no berries, purples, etc. Any suggestions would definitely be appreciated! As a reference, I recently purchased (but will be returning) Kat Von D liquid lip in Vampira, but that is not the dark red I'm looking for.

Urban decay blackmail? This is the regular but it comes in liquid too.

Thanks for your suggestion! I'll have to swatch next time I'm in store 🙂

I'm deeply in love with the shades Sanguis and Mortis from Black Moon Cosmetics. Order from their online store as it's the only way to get their products. But, oh, what fantastic products they are! 💜

I like Kat Von D's Nosferatu (and I also wear Hourglass Icon) but, if you are not wedded to the idea of liquid lipstick, perhaps you should look at Besame Cosmetics which has a pretty comprehensive line of red lipsticks.

I love the Nars velvet matte lipstick crayons. I have two of their reds. Dragon girl which is a brighter red and Cruella which is darker.

Have you tried LAC matte lipstick CML471 or the ELF wine lipstick i think they're great dark reds and are also really affordable

I have ELF in Wine. It's a great shade, very moisturizing.
