Margot Robbie’s Holiday-Approved Beauty Trick Is Worth a Double Take

There s something about red-painted pouts during the year s last lap. And while glassy burgundies and glitter-encrusted crimsons hold their own on December s lip-level menu, Margot Robbie s modern matte may be the quickest route to a look both fresh-faced and femme fatale.

Last night, for Neon s holiday party in New York City, the actress took cues from the distribution company s laconic name, framing her smile in a cherry hue infused with a bit of Pop art brilliance. Robbie s accompanying beauty notes, rather than attempting to rival the vivid shade, served as strategic supplements: luminous skin and a coat of mascara furthering the high-impact swipe. And, as the I, Tonya star is an advocate of the beach-y chop, side-separated lengths were worn glossy and rumpled, a simple behind-the-ear tuck rendering the shoulder-skimming style evening-ready. Gearing up for a week s worth of festivities? Take a cue from Robbie and let your lips do the talking—bejeweled leg reveal optional.
