Sexy Red Lipstick & Hair Combos to Wear on Valentine's Day
Other than every day, Valentine's Day is our favorite holiday for indulging in a red lip. So naturally we'd suggest taking your Valentine's Day look ten levels up a notch on the spice scale, and pairing whatever ensemble you have planned with a sexy red lipstick. One, because a simple swipe of red supplies instant confidence, and two, you'll have your date drooling before dessert even arrives. Like Audrey Hepburn said, there's a shade of red for every woman, so look to our favorite ladies of Instagram to find yours—powerful meets playful in these red pout and hair combinations.
Center Part Updo + Scarlet Red
Flaunt your neckline with an effortless updo, Marianna Hewitt style, and a scarlet lipstick to match your salsa dancing girl emoji dress.
Sleek Lob + Coral Red
Give your glass hair extra glow by pairing it with a succulent coral-colored lipstick.
Half-Up Mermaid Waves + Ruby Red
Black lace and mermaid locks are all the more sultry when they center around a rich ruby red.
S-Waves + Dusty Rose
If a classic red lipstick isn't your cup of tea, do as Camila Coelho and swipe on a flirty rose shade to go with your flat iron waves.
Slicked Bun + Vampy Red
A moody red similar to Olivia Culpo's is extra striking when offset by a sleek bun made with OUAI Rose Hair & Body Oil.
Tousled Bob + Classic Red

Glass Ponytail + Strawberry Red
Skip the strawberries and whipped cream and wear this juicy red hue made all the more delectable by a polished ponytail.
Wet, Pushed Back + Peachy Red
An out-of-your-face hairstyle accentuates your eyes, cheekbones, and lips so push it back and put on a peachy red.
Curly Updo + Pinkish Red
Keep it easy on the eyes—let your lipstick and curls do the talking with a work-to-play updo that gives your tendrils a starring role.
Beach Waves + Fire Red
Ultra-glam lids and a fire red lipstick like Desi Perkin's are sure to make your date do a double take.
Wispy Bun + Big Apple Red
A no-fuss bun calls for a sparkly headband and a bright, big apple red on the lips.
Sleek + Blood-Red
What's better than being wined and dined? Being wined and dined while wearing a wine-stained hue and sleek, straight hair.
Textured Waves + Clementine Red
Fluff up your fringe and waves with some OUAI Texturizing Hair Spray before swiping on an orangey red.
Soft Curls + Crimson
Complement a set of loose curls with a crimson pout and graphic statement accessories.
