Red lipstick is a classic, and it's the perfect way to add a pop of color to your look. But if you're looking for something with a little more oomph, consider muted reds. These hues are less bright, which means they'll look better on more skin tones. Here are some great muted red lipsticks.

The perfect red...The color L’Avenue is a gorgeous universally flattering red. I’m very fair, so most reds are overpowering on me, but this is just muted enough that it doesn’t look off, and just bright enough that it’s still a statement red if you build it up that way. ...I took a star off for the color, millenial to me is more a muted red bean shade, it does not have any pink on my light-medium color lips, if you have a darker natural lip color this might come across more pink but even compared to the colors shown on the models, the lipstick leans more red bean undertone than pink.

Packaging is great upon first arrival. The shade of red color is slightly muted and more wearable than the one on the photos which although being outside of what’s advertised, is an even better choice imo....This is THE most perfect red lipstick I’ve ever used.
