Lady Danger
Emma Stone’s lip color in Cruella is actually an orange-red MAC lipstick called Lady Danger, per Brittany Cale. Lady Danger is a bright coral red, more warm-toned for those types of skin tones, and it’s quickly becoming a beloved staple in celebs and shoppers’ makeup routines.
Dubonnet
Fun fact: Gwen Stefani wore Dubonnet while playing Jean Harlow in The Aviator. It was reported on the archived site Makeup411 via Fedora Lounge, and we can totally see it! It’s a mid-tone wine shade, a darker red that perfectly emulates both romantic and vintage vibes in one.
See Sheer
TikToker and makeup expert Brittany Cale revealed that a color typically used on Emma Caulfield on the set of Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Mac’s See Sheer. Described as a “grapefruit pink,” See Sheer is essentially a semi-peachy pink color that’s perfect for Spring.
Paramount
Jennifer Aniston wore Paramount during her run on Friends, which she confirmed in 2017 to Glamour. It’s a comfortable reddish brown hue, almost a brick color, that’s compounded with different seen oils for a softer feel.
Spice It Up!
Along with Aniston, Courteney Cox wore Spice It Up numerous times for that cranberry look, per Who What Wear. Spice It Up is a sheer brown berry look that is quite buildable, meaning it can go on more sheer to super pigmented.
Marrakesh
Guess what? The MAC Matte Lipstick in Marrakesh was the same lipstick Gillian Anderson used in The X-Files, per Greensboro. It was discontinued for a bit, but has come back in their permanent collection. It’s a stunning orange-brown that makes a darker nude shade on some lighter skintones!
