Vampy Red

While it sounds scary or goth, it's actually pretty: you can easily use a black eye pencil to line a red lip. Line first using Benefit’s Bad Gal Waterproof liner ($20), filling in your lips about halfway, and then apply Maybelline’s Red Revival ($7) on top. The result is a subtle ombré pout like Gwen Stefani's that takes almost zero effort.
