The Only Lipstick Shades That Matter, According to Fashion Insiders

To me, there is nothing as essential as a great lipstick. Even if I’m not wearing any other makeup, I always have lipstick on—a beauty lesson I’ve carried down from my mom who never steps out without wearing her favorite color. Even with bare skin, I feel like lipstick makes me feel pulled together, whether I’m wearing a neutral pink or a bold red lip.

There are a few key ways I discover great lipstick shades. The first involves carving out an afternoon to head to the beauty counter where I’ll swipe on shade after shade until I find what I’m looking for. Another method of discovery? Sliding into the DMs of friends, asking them to share the exact colors and formulas they’re wearing. So, what are the best lipstick shades to wear right now? To find out, I asked fashion insiders to share the best lipstick shades they wear on repeat. Here, discover the lipstick colors they can't live without.

"A clean face and red lipstick is my signature look. I'm very particular of the color red as it can't be too cool or too warm in undertones. This shade from Mac is the best shade for my skin tone that I have found, and as I often like to keep my skin dewy, I like my lipstick to be slightly matte. The staying power of this liquid lipstick is perfect too."
"I love wearing matte lipsticks in fall/winter. This one from Chanel has a perfect color. I tend to go for natural makeup, and this lipstick complements this kind of makeup so well. It makes my lips pop a little while still looking natural."
"I am not a huge lipstick girl, but when I found this shade I fully changed my mind. The hue blends in with my natural lip color while enhancing it just the right amount. This is the kind of lipstick you always want to have in your purse should you need to spruce up last-minute or simply need some lip hydration. The texture is creamy and soft and doesn't leave your lips feeling dry at the end of the day. There are currently 32 shades, so all you have to do is locate the one that's right for you and you'll be just as satisfied as I am, I promise."
“My current favorite lipstick is Rouge Coco #466 Carmen by Chanel. This lipstick locks in the hydration and provides full coverage that’ll last up to a couple of hours before I need to reapply. Love having a bold lip from time to time!”
"I love this shade from Hourglass. This is a nude lipstick that fits for everything—work, parties, and events! What I love even more with this lipstick is that even though it’s not matte it stays on the entire day!"
"This is the perfect deep red for this season for a skin tone like mine. It also happens to be extremely hydrating although the finish is matte."
"Right now I'm into pink nudes and mauve colors. Couldn't pick one favorite, but I'm loving Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Crème Lipstick because it's lightweight and has a satin finish to it and you don't need to apply a gloss on top. I love A La Rose. I also love Chanel's Rouge Coco Flash for everyday wear. My favorite shade is Jour. I love it because it's shiny and really moisturizing and I can re-apply it thought out the day."
"It's a matte mousse, which I love. The wand makes it easy to line your lips with the tip and then apply on the rest of your lips using the angled brush. The color is a dream; it's not too red and it's not too poppy. It can be worn for everyday use, even for a night out. It dries matte and stays, and there is no need to reapply an hour later."
"The perfect red to make any look a bit chicer."
"I am a sheer lipstick kind of girl. I just got this Chanel one in Intense color after a trip to L.A., which I think pretty much explains my craving for adding a pop of color into my everyday makeup regimen. I like the smooth texture and how it moisturizes my lips all day long."

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
