Best... bargain

PS...Lustre Satin Lipstick in Red, 90p, Primark

This is great for beginners, as it's a hydrating, sheer formula, so it's that little bit less intimidating than a full-blown matte. It's also more wearable, matching everything from natural to dramatic eye looks.

Best... glossy look

Revolution Pout Lip Gloss Stick in Cherrylicious, £6.99, revolution beauty.com

This is a hybrid between a lipstick and a gloss, with all the best bits of both. It gives a high-shine finish without the stickiness, and it's infused with hydrating hyaluronic acid as well as vitamin E to help you to plump up your pout.

Best... treat

Lancôme L'Absolu Rouge Matte Lipstick in Shimmery Dramaphoria, £38, selfridges.com
