Red lipstick over 40 and 50 has long been considered a no-no. This royal flush of celebrities - and one political wife in the form of Callista Gingrich - beautifully illustrate why this is a makeup over 40 rule made to be broken. Especially for ringing in the New Year! Find a red that brings out the siren in you, and finally learn how to wear red lipstick.
Who says red heads cant wear red lips? Titanic mum Frances Fisher, 59, one-time longtime love of Clint Eastwood (they share a daughter) kicks that stereotype to the curb, complementing her long copper locks with bright red lips that echo her statement necklace.
The key to red lips over 50 is in keeping the red on the lips and away from the eyes.
