Miranda Kerr has been in Sydney this week to help launch the new Qantas air hostess uniform, as well as attend the Qantas gala dinner party held at Sydney's domestic airport last night. We noticed her neat, red lip and of course, just had to have it.

It seems like there isn't a makeup look that Lily Collins won't try, but she also knows how to stick to the classics. The actress showed up to WonderCon over the weekend sporting champagne shadow, glossy red lips, and her signature bold brows. Her heavily pigmented lip colour stood out against her otherwise matte look, creating a high-impact look that's easy to mimic. After achieving your perfect stand out brows and layering on a red lipstick, add some serious oomph with some crimson lip gloss. Stuck on which pigment is perfect? Try taking our skin tone quiz to find out whether to stick to blue-based reds (cool), or orange-based reds (warm).
London's O2 Arena is home to today's Brit Awards, and Taylor Swift led the star power on the red carpet. The "I Knew You Were Trouble" singer looked soft and feminine with a glossy blow-dry and metallic smoky eyes, while the more daring Rita Ora went for what is now becoming her signature — a red lip. Rita paired it with metallic blue eyeshadow and although it's a combo that shouldn't work in theory, it does because the lipstick is a blue-based red. Click through to see all the stars up close.

It was cricket's night of nights down in Melbourne last night, and the wives and girlfriends of the sport's finest players put on their very own beauty pageant during the red carpet arrivals. WAG of the moment Kyly Clarke, looked sporty-chic in white, and went with a bold(y) red-orange lip and soft waves — a popular look for the 2013 awards season in the US. Lee Watson (née Furlong) wore a very gorgeous Johanna Johnson jewelled headpiece, and hair on the side made a few appearances, too. Click through.

We're hereby naming this week the week of the chop. With major three major stars taking the leap and chopping their hair — or parts of it ‐ off, it's evident that stylish manes are the main event in celebrity beauty right now.

Also taking up residence in our top ten? Jennifer Lopez with her glowing natural beauty, Willa Holland and Rihanna with bold lips, and one perfect ponytail that we can't wait to try. Dive in to this very beauty-full celeb world to see the rest!
Oh dear, have we found our favourite Critics' Choice Awards beauty look already? Emily Blunt looks divine with glossy, cherry red lips and and delicate finger waves. The wet look hair trend is still strong on the red carpet, and Emily captures the look effortlessly. The lip is doing all the work with just a hint of bronze shadow on her eyes and natural looking lashes. Do you love Emily's look as much as we do?

Having a fresh face doesn't mean that you have to leave off the lipstick. Bold, brilliant lip colours were all over the runways at shows like Jason Wu, Christian Dior, and Anna Sui. In this video, David Hernandez, Pro Educator for Make Up For Ever, shows us what it takes to create a clean, on-trend look with a pop of colour.
Today marks the date 12/12/12, and what better way to celebrate than with our top 12 party-ready lipstick picks? A bright lip is a bit of a commitment, so be sure to keep everything else relatively low-key in the makeup department. We love a matte, bright lip with very full lashes and nude eyeshadow, for example, because it's a look that's both office Christmas party and girls night out appropriate. If you want your loud lips to stay put through more than one champagne, be sure to exfoliate and moisturise with balm, and then go in with a similar-coloured lip liner all over the lip before applying lipstick. Ready for our top 12?
