Shop Sia's Exact Go-To Red Lipstick Shade
When celebrities find products that instantly become their holy grails, the beauty world listens — especially when their go-to makeup artists cosign the recommendation. According to Instagram, Tonya Brewer, Sia's makeup artist, only uses one red lipstick on the star. And you might already have it in your makeup bag too.
I'm a firm believer that everyone needs a great red lipstick in their makeup bag. You just never know when you'll need to amp up a look with a bold lip. What better way to do that than with an A-lister's favorite? According to Brewer, Sia's go-to red lipstick is MAC's Ruby Woo. She told her followers that it's one of the most asked questions she gets by fans. The other is if she actually gets to see Sia's face, which she avoided the answer to.
The best part about it is that the very matte, blue-toned red is only $17. For less that $20, you can get the star's exact look! From the looks of a photo that she posted to Twitter, it looks like she uses the corresponding liner as well. Throw in an oversized, long-banged wig and you'll have everything you need to fool all of your friends.
There you have it! Everything you'll need for a full Sia look. There are a few other blue-toned reds out there that look similar to this signature shade. Here are some of your best options.
