Christmastime is here, and whether you’re prepping for festivities or enjoying some time at home, today is the day to test-drive a classic red lip. Though crimson pouts are a time-honored beauty tradition, there’s still always something novel about the choice, due in part to the type of daring required to truly own the look, and in part to its protean nature—a red lip takes on the individuality of each woman who wears it.
For inspiration, we recommend taking advantage of the holiday’s tradition of relaxation by re-watching a few films that helped propel the scarlet kiss to what it is today. Audrey Hepburn is transformed from bookish brunette to supermodel by way of a red lip in Funny Face, while Bond girls Eva Green and Léa Seydoux epitomize glamour in their matching pouts. And whether the color is applied with practiced nonchalance (think Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan) or as a ritual—Mélanie Laurent’s Shoshanna paints hers on in preparation for battle in Inglourious Basterds—the look is sure to make a personal, seasonal statement. Here, our favorite iconic red lip moments in film.
