Rihanna’s Winter Berry Lip Combo Is Perfect for Date Night

If I were to take an internet poll and ask people what the best date-night lip color is, I bet there would be one resounding and overwhelming answer: red. I get it! It’s a classic. Even Taylor Swift thinks so. However, Rihanna, the eternal cool girl that she is, just made the case for something even darker and richer.

Recently, the singer, brand founder, and fashion and beauty icon stepped out in NYC on a date night with her longtime partner, A$AP Rocky. She sported a signature chic outfit, glossy hair, and a bold makeup look. As a beauty editor, I was most interested in the latter. Thick lashes! Glowing skin! A bright pop of blush! And a rich, red-purple lip combo that I coined “winter berry.” It’s officially become my blueprint for how to create a cool mid-winter date-night look. Ahead, see the exact two products her makeup artist, Hector Espinal, used to create it.
