You can always trust one of the ’90s supers to deliver a mic drop beauty moment. Take Christy Turlington, who at 53 is still doing red carpet glamour like few others can. Decidedly low-key in her private life—she previously told Vogue that some of her favorite things to do are yoga, reading, and spending time with her kids—Turlington sure knows how to amp up the glam for evening: with a slick of lipstick.
At a party in New York on Wednesday evening, Turlington walked the red carpet with her daughter, Grace Burns (who sported an equally enviable feline flick), by her side. Wearing a black leather minidress with a quilted Chanel bag, the supermodel looked chic and understated, save for the red lipstick she was wearing on her lips. Paired with glossy, luminous skin, a gently defined eye, and shiny, natural hair, Turlington turned heads.
It wasn’t just Christy wearing a bold lip, either—fellow model Karlie Kloss also sported a killer orange-red pout. It’s no wonder. As the ultimate secret weapon to quickly add warmth and color to one’s face, a good red lipstick is timeless for a reason. For party season—which, yes, is fast approaching—it’s a game-changer and can be swiftly applied on the move, plus it’s an easy way to add a touch of glamour to an otherwise muted ensemble.
Below, some of Vogue’s favorite red lipsticks to try right now.
