Celebrities have always been finding ways to make their looks bolder. The easiest and most common way to do so seems to be by experimenting with lip colours. From blues to purples and blacks, nothing is too experimental for these stars.
Take a look at all the times Bollywood and Hollywood celebrities looked striking in vibrant lip colours on red carpets, at events and even film promotions!
From Edgy To Eccentric, Here Are The Boldest Lip Colours Celebrities Wore
Urvashi Rautela
The actress walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival 2023 in a white and blue gown. Rautela really dominated the red carpet when she sported bright blue lipstick to match the feathers on her outfit. She paired this with defined cat eyes and voluminous fluttery lashes while her hair was styled into a neat chignon bun.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
The Cannes Film Festival seems like the perfect place to experiment with lip shades. Mrs. Bachchan also made heads turn when she stepped out wearing a pastel purple lipstick. Bold, smokey eyes, flushed cheeks and her hair styled into a simple voluminous ponytail may have paved the way for the former Miss Universe to be trolled and memed, but that didn’t stop the look from going down in history.
Deepika Padukone
Known predominantly for her red or nude lips, Deepika Padukone stepped out of her comfort zone when she struck a pose in a glossy plum-hued lipstick for the Time 100 red carpet a few years ago. Her lips mirrored her earrings and nails and made for an excellent contrast against her white ensemble. She took the goth out of the shade and made it so elegant!
Sonam Kapoor
If there’s one person we can always count on to pull off a look seamlessly, it is Sonam. Giving her girl-next-door look a contemporary spin, she also picked a shade of deep plum topped with gloss for her lips. The only difference? Her eye makeup was comparatively low-key, to keep the focus on her unique lip shade.
Janhvi Kapoor
In her films like Dhadak and Gunjan Saxena, and even through her Instagram page, Janhvi has always embodied clean and glamorous beauty. Think red lips, rosy cheeks or defined eyes. She strayed away from this persona when she celebrated Halloween dressed up as Morticia Addams. Dark, almost black lips were the focus of her look. Defined eyes and poker-straight black hair completed the gothic look.
Lady Gaga
‘Mother Monster’ as she’s commonly referred to, stepped out not for a red carpet but for a shoot in a bright pink outfit. Pastel blue lips were her go-to choice of makeup for the event. Gaga is known for her outlandish outfit and makeup statements and it’s safe to say she delivered with this look!
The bolder the better for them, I guess!
