Taylor Swift is known for many things — leaving Easter eggs in her lyrics, her record-setting Eras tour, and, of course, her iconic red lipstick.
Swift's signature red lips recently caught renewed attention when she was spotted sporting the look at numerous Chiefs games this fall and winter, but the singer has been rocking the look since 2009, when she tried on the style for an Allure cover shoot.
We've scoured through years of interviews with Swift and her makeup artists to bring you all the confirmed shades the singer has relied on to create her signature red lip. As with most products Swift wears, several of these shades are in such high demand that they're perpetually sold out. Where possible, we've provided in-stock alternatives alongside the exact Swift-approved products. You'll find a few more of Swift's favorite makeup items in our gifts for Swifties roundup.
If you're planning to try red lips out for yourself, we recommend taking a note from Taylor and keeping the rest of your makeup simple: "I always make a choice: is it going to be a heavy eye look or a heavy lip look? if I'm gonna do a red lip I'll do a simple cat eye liner," Swift said in a 2013 interview with Yahoo Shine.
Pat McGrath Labs LiquiLUST in Elson 4
Makeup artist Pat McGrath revealed in an Instagram post the exact products she used to create Taylor's red lip for the Bejeweled music video. While McGrath uses a mix of products, the base of the look is McGrath's own LiquiLUST Matte Lipstick in shade Elson 4. This vivid cool blue is also rumored to be in Swift's rotation during her Eras tour performances.

This shade is almost always sold out, but makeup obsessives over at Temptalia have identified Rare Beauty's Lip Soufflé Matte Cream Lipstick in Transform as a 95% match for Elson 4.
MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in Ruby Woo
"I think everyone knows [it] is a staple," Swift once told People about MAC's Ruby Woo shade. Another blue-toned vivid red, this lipstick is rumored to be the one Swift sported at numerous Chiefs games throughout the last season.
NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl
Taylor herself has spoken about her love for NARS Dragon Girl and wore the shade to the 2014 Met Gala, a moment immortalized in an Instagram photo taken with her then-bestie Karlie Kloss. Nars recently replaced the Velvet Matte line with its Powermatte High-Intensity Long-Lasting Lip Pencil. The packaging is different, but the Dragon Girl shade still endures, and is described by the brand as a "vivid siren red."
