Taylor Swift’s Life of a Showgirl has finally arrived, and–true to form–it’s filled with glittering moments. While we’re still unpacking every Easter egg tucked into her lyrics, one thing is crystal clear: this album is as bold and daring as the myriad of rouge lippies we’ve seen on the singer over the years–from a cool-toned crimson in the Bejeweled music video to a bold ruby hue at the 2025 Grammy Awards. Ahead, we’ve matched each of our favourite tracks from Swift’s latest era with a product that perfectly captures its spirit. Ready to channel your inner showgirl? Swipe on one of these show-stopping shades.
