Rihanna’s worn (and personally created) every lipstick color under the sun, but few shades compare to burgundy. Paired with her pink gingham blazer and split curtain bangs, the dark lipstick adds a chic, moody twist to her otherwise prim-and-pretty look.Jonathan Leibson/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
It’s one of Dakota Johnson’s signature beauty equations — add equal parts tousled bangs, smoky bedroom eyes, and a statement lip to create a standout look every time. At a 2019 industry event, Johnson opted for a matte burgundy lipstick for a retro touch.Steve Granitz/WireImage/Getty Images
Few can do such effortless elegance like Mindy Kaling, and this glossy burgundy lip look is proof. Deep and purple-tinted, Kaling’s lipstick is a glowing complement to her equally shiny blowout, complete with some very trendy side-bangs.Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
A standout lipstick shade can also double as the centerpiece of an entire head-to-toe look. The always-stunning Margot Robbie proved it when she paired a cutout dress with a low-key ponytail and burgundy lipstick at a 2022 film festival — all eyes immediately go to the bold shade.Miikka Skaffari/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Take if from Beyoncé — if you’re going retro, go burgundy. A more unexpected (and arguably more compelling) shade than a classic red, the dark lip color Beyoncé wore to her 2022 Shawn Carter Foundation Gala perfectly suited her feathered gown, even holding its own against her lush, vintage curls.Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Burgundy lipstick doesn't need to be opaque to make a statement. Lana Condor proved it when she wore a lighter burgundy shade to a 2019 event, paired with a cool-girl smoky eye look. The softer color, blended into an almost ombré effect for a fuller-looking bottom lip, is both relaxed and distinct.Steven Ferdman/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
While mattes lend themselves well to retro-inspired looks, burgundy lip glosses are pure opulence — just check out Viola Davis’ 2015 Oscars look. The super-shiny finish is an elegant addition to her glowing cheeks and long lashes, with the shade perfectly complementing her shell-pink gown.Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Moody is practically Lana Del Rey’s middle name, and her appearance at the 2012 Met Gala is all the evidence needed. Opting for a dark fairytale vibe, she paired her whimsical cape and long, glossy curls with a striking burgundy lipstick for added drama — it worked.Kevin Mazur/WireImage/Getty Images
There are so many exciting elements to Tracee Ellis Ross’ 2019 premiere look — sienna nail polish! Ballerina bun! — but the best part is undoubtedly her coordinated burgundy lipstick and matching clutch. A more muted shade of burgundy, it takes center stage against her otherwise pared-down makeup.Frazer Harrison/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Sultry yet sophisticated in a burgundy corset-style ensemble and matching lipstick, Kerry Washington never disappoints. The reds and purples at play in her makeup blend beautifully to add a touch of edginess into her sleek 2018 look.Roy Rochlin/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
