#1 Vanessa Hudgens
Wowza! Vanessa shows us that a bold lip can play with an ultra-intense smoky eye. Beauty vlogger Teni Panosian uses NYX Retractable Lip Liner in Plum ($5) to keep the Lorac Alter Ego Lipstick in Dominatrix ($16) to create a similar look. (Image via POPSUGAR Beauty)
#2 Khloe Kardashian
Khloe decided to wrap herself in red for the red carpet at this year's Oscars, and we're loving it. The shimmery sunset eye, the contoured cheeks it's a winning look, for sure. Mimic this look with a combination of a blackened red lip pencil like OCC Cosmetic Colour Pencil ($16) + Black Dahlia Lip Tar ($18). (Image via Glamour UK)
#3 Emma Stone
A dark pout really pops on picture perfect porcelain skin. If you're an edgy goth-glam bride who's rocking a black wedding dress down the aisle, take note. Use Rimmel's Lasting Finish Kisses Lip Liner in Coffee Bean ($4) to define your lips. Then fill them in with Rimmel London Kate Moss Lasting Finish Lipstick in 011 ($6) for a high shine look that'll last the whole night. (via New York Girl Style; Image via Chez Noelle)
#4 Blake Lively
A celeb who admittedly doesn't work with a wardrobe stylist but pulls off the most incredible looks on the red carpet (and in life) is there anything Blake can't do perfectly? Channel art deco glam with Top Shop Matte Lip Bullet in More Than a Woman ($13). After you've lined and filled your lips, you'll want to make sure that color stays put. Don't forget to blot with tissue and dust a bit of translucent powder to make it kiss proof. (via Rare London)
#5 Beyoncé
Take a cue from Queen Bey's look from the "Haunted" video and rock a sparkly silver smokey eye with a glossy plum lip, with MAC's Diva ($16) topped with a clear hi-shine gloss. Check out this YouTube tutorial to get a goth-glam look. (Image via Bright)
#6 Kate Bosworth
Apparently we need to find a party dress to match our dark lips. Get Kate's pout with L'Oreal Paris Infallible Le Rouge Lipcolor in Everlasting Plum ($10) or NARS Audacious Lipstick in Liv ($32). (via Pretty in Peplum; Image via Style on the Street)
#7 Julianne Hough
Not quite ready to add lipliner to your routine but looking to upgrade your tinted balm? With a moisturizing sheer lipstick, you won't have to sacrifice the color payoff. Go for Bobbi Brown's Sheer Lip Color in Black Plum ($26). (via Beauty Editor)
#8 Lorde
She was just 16 when she broke out on the music scene, and now we want to rock a dark lip to feel like one of the cool kids. Naturally, Lorde's going with a shade from her MAC collection, and you can too with this shade of aubergine in Heroine ($16). (via LX Edit)
#9 Katy Perry
If you're rocking a non-traditional hair hue, you're bound to try anything when it comes to beauty. Keep it rosy on the cheeks like Katy for that flushed winter look and swipe on NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Train Bleu ($25). (Image via Lovely Rita)
#10 Selena Gomez
We're loving Selena's take on a winey smoky eye, warm cheeks and matching mani to go with a rich plum lip. (And that messy french braid? Forget about it.) Try Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in Venom ($22). Bonus, there's a lip pencil ($20) to match. (via Hollywood Life; Image via Posh24)
#11 Miranda Kerr
Not a fan of the matte look? Dabbing a touch of gloss in the center of your lip makes them appear fuller. For va-va-voom lips with major color payoff, pick a high-pigment gloss like Stila Stay All Day Vinyl Lip Gloss in Merlot ($24). (via Beauty Editor)
#12 Rooney Mara
Sport a slicked back ‘do and a center part like Rooney to showcase that darker pout. Contour your cheeks with bronzer and fill in your brows to create balance. With a few swipes of Iman Luxury Moisturizing Lipstick in Mahogany ($10), you're set. (via Vogue)
#13 Kerry Washington
We can't wait for the nail biting winter finale of Scandal coming up, and to celebrate Olivia Pope's affinity for ginormous glasses of fine red wine, we'll sport a vampy bold lip. Kerry's makeup artist, Carola Gonzales, revealed her Oscars lip look: prep lips with Neutrogena Revitalizing Lip Balm ($8), layer on Giorgio Armani Rouge d'Armani Lipstick in #609 Plum ($34) and top it off with Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Stick in Rich Raisin ($8) to add sheen.

#14 Jennifer Lawrence
Dark lip color and flaky lips do not mix. Be on the lookout for a hydrating formula for a smooth surface. Try Dior Rouge Dior Lipstick in Prune Daisy ($34) to get JLaw's show-stopping red carpet look. (via Shape)
#15 Kate Hudson
Kate is one of our role models for effortless beauty, and we're loving her Cali-girl take on a vampy lip. Make your cheeks pop with bronzer and amp up your lash line by lining the waterline of your upper eyelids and applying a volumizing mascara. For the lips, go with NYX Cosmetics Simply Vamp Lip Cream in Enamored ($7). (via Glamour)
#16 Rose Byrne
You don't have to shell out the big bucks to get this look. Head to the drugstore and grab a tube of Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick in Plum ($10) for a featherweight wash of color. This formula goes on so smooth you won't even feel it. (Image via Style Bistro)
#17 Rihanna
We were stoked to hear RiRi hopped back onto Insta a few weeks ago, mainly to see her BTS makeup and fashion looks before she hits the red carpet. To get Rihanna's signature bad girl look, use a lip brush to outline your lips for a perfect pout, then paint on the desired amount of color a blackberry shade like Buxom's Full Bodied Lipstick in Menace ($21) to fill it in. (via Daily Mail)
#18 Lily Collins
No contest, Lily's got the best brows in Hollywood. But in this shade of plum, she's got just as enviable lips, too. To get the vampy look, try Shiseido Lacquer Rouge in Hellebore ($25), which has a formula that actually improves dry, peeling lips the more you use it. (via Nifty Beauty Tips)
#19 Jessica Alba
Quite honestly, Jessica's Instagram is a beauty and fashion lover's dream. But we'll take a break from trying to figure out which filters make her so drop-dead gorgeous all the dang time to copycat her ombre plum lip. We're springing for Smashbox's Be Legendary Lipstick in Plum Scene ($20). (via Refinery 29)
#20 Mindy Kaling
Our favorite funny gal can rock a dark lip day or night, and we want to copy both! For daytime, try Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm in Red Dahlia ($7) and once the sun goes down, rock the Mindy-approved Tom Ford Lipstick in Black Orchid ($50) it's the shade she's rocking on the red carpet here.
