The 14 Best Beauty Products for Redheads

Aug 09, 2016

Whether you’re a natural redhead or you get a little help from your stylist (shoutout to our fave celebs going from blonde to red), it can be difficult to find beauty products that cater to your hair’s fiery hue. While it makes sense that most merchandise is focused on blondes, brunettes and raven-haired beauties (redheads only make up 1-2% of the population), that doesn’t mean there isn’t a thriving market of beauty buys just for you.

1. Philosophy the Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash ($28): This exfoliating face wash works perfectly for fair-skinned redheads. It offers a super effective exfoliation that buffers fine lines and gives you a healthy glow, but it’s gentle enough to use on sensitive skin. Bonus points for the sulfate-free formulation designed to protect and condition skin with antioxidants.

2. Smashbox L.A. Lights Blendable Lip & Cheek Highlighter ($29): A lot of blush shades can clash with red hair. The trick is finding the right balance between bright colors that pop and barely there nudes that blend. Enter this highlighter, which adds a subtle sheen to your beauty look with a lightweight brightening formula that feels like your own skin.

3. Davines Alchemic Red Shampoo ($35): This shampoo is specially designed to intensify both natural and cosmetically enhanced red hair. It features a special concoction enriched with milk proteins and vitamins to leave hair feeling soft and silky.

4. Lancome Maquicomplet Complete Coverage Concealer ($31): Grab a concealer that minimizes undereye circles, wrinkles and pesky blemishes minus the cakey application. This option in “natural finish” will flawlessly blend in with fair skin.

5. John Frieda Colour Refreshing Gloss ($11): This hair treatment is the perfect boost for in between salon visits. Don’t worry about losing your vibrant red hue — this lifesaver adds fiery copper tones in three minutes flat.

6. L’Oreal Paris Root Cover Up Spray ($9): If you don’t want your grays or roots to show between salon colorings, this stuff is a must-have. Just spray it on, and in three seconds you’ll have flawless roots. The main selling point of this product is the smudge-free formulation that doesn’t leave a sticky residue when it dries.

7. NARS Light Reflecting Loose Powder ($37): This powder is perfect for setting makeup on fair skin, as it is completely colorless. The silky powder is infused with Photochromic Technology to diffuse light and visibly smooth skin without ever competing with your gorgeous freckles.

8. Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint ($26): This lightweight tinted moisturizer in “light” is perfect for redheads with a more delicate complexion. It evens out discoloration and makes your skin look toned, even and, best of all, dewy. Conquer the no-makeup makeup look without hiding your natural hue.

9. Murad Essential-c Day Moisturizer With SPF 30 ($40): The number one beauty product redheads (and really everyone) should invest in is SPF. Sun protection is super important for people with fair skin, and this daily moisturizer makes it easy to do the right thing by your beauty all day, every day.

10. Make Up Forever Kohl Eyeliner in Intense Pearly Green ($18): Black eyeliner can look especially harsh against red hues. Instead, opt for a kohl liner in a dark green that will pop against your eyes and vibrant hair.

11. Redhead Revolution Mascara ($15): Like black eyeliner, a deep, inky mascara might be too much for light-colored lashes. These mascaras are specially formulated for ginger hair and coloring. Each of these three hues will complement crimson locks for a natural, effortless look.

12. Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint ($24): A red lip and red hair can be a bit over the top if not executed just right (Julianne Moore, teach us your ways). If you still want to add some color to your pout, try a berry lip instead. This natural stain glides on with ease and offers a rich color minus the clash.

13. Smashbox Fusion Soft Lights Bronzer in Baked Starburst ($32): Nothing goes better with a gorgeous red mane than a beachy, sunkissed glow. The trick is to choose a bronzer with peachy pink tones instead of an allover brown to bring out your lit-from-within radiance.

14. Topshop Freckle Pencil ($7): You may have hated your freckles growing up, but now they’re so on trend, people actually pay to have them drawn on! This awesome pencil can help you enhance the freckles you already have or add more on for the ultimate end-of-summer look.

Robert Pattinson's Reaction To Suki Waterhouse's Hilarious Prank Call Is Priceless

Our hearts skip a beat every time we hear news about Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson because they're one of the cutest couples ever! In addition to becoming to new parents, it's possible they've been married while the rest of us have been wondering what's going on behind the scenes! Until they confirm marriage news, we'll keep sighing over their touching baby updates and the romantic way they interact with each other in paparazzi snaps.

Here's everything we know about Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattison's special journey as new parents!

Do Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson get along?

A post shared by ELLE Magazine (@elleusa)

Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson definitely get along, and in a recent prank call interview with Elle, they proved they have a great sense of humor too! When Suki and Rob get on the phone, they immediately refer to each other as "Darling" and "Angel" which made me swoon.

When told Suki had an offer to host Love is Blind together, Robert says, "Darling, have you gone mad? Are you joking? Is this whole thing a joke?"

After learning it is indeed a joke, Robert says, "I was like, 'Babe if you think it's the right thing for you.'"

Who knows, maybe we'll see them host together one day!!

Where were Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson recently seen?

The new parents stepped out in style during the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic on October 5 and they somehow seem cooler than before. Both wore pairs of shades that obscured their eyes, but their smiles and coordinating outfits were on full display! From the deep navy floral dress Suki wore to Robert's tailored suit, something tells me these two were prepared to turn heads.

What did Suki Waterhouse recently say about her family?

Dimitrios Kambouris

Suki Waterhouse can't stop gushing about her family! She showed up in style on the 2024 MTV VMA's red carpet and said Robert Pattinson is "the greatest" at being a dad to their 6-month-old baby girl (via Access Hollywood). Though he was working, Suki happily brought their daughter with her and had fun "showing her around New York City" prior to her red carpet appearance. As far as little one's personality, Suki disclosed that "She has such a sweet nature," and she's enjoying watching it unfold.

How does Suki Waterhouse feel about motherhood and her relationship with Robert Pattinson?

www.instagram.com

Suki Waterhouse is learning how to manage being a first-time mom who also has a career — two things that aren't easy to balance whatsoever. One of the things she shared with British Vogueis that she realized how much pressure moms are under. "Every mum’s morality is in question so much, not just from yourself, but from society," she said. "Everyone’s projecting something onto you. That’s an insane thing."

The one thing she observed about Robert Pattinson is how he seems to be adjusting to fatherhood. She said, " [he's] the dad I could have hoped for...It’s an actual love story."

Concerning their love story, Suki's song "To Love" from her upcoming album Memoir of a Sparklemuffin celebrates what it means to find your person. She said, "I had a very clear feeling of being like, ‘Oh, wow, Rob and I have been together six years and I’m still really into this.'" For Suki, all that seems to matter is, "This love and having a family and having a little world."

Someone bring us another box of tissues because this sounds so sweet!

Has Robert Pattinson made a public statement about his daughter?

Robert usually doesn't share too many details about his personal life, but there's no hiding from the joy of being a first-time dad! He recently attended the Dior Homme Menswear Spring/Summer 2025 fashion show in Paris (via People) and looked just as amazing as we remember seeing him in public.

Thanks to a short clip a fan posted to X, we're finally able to know how Robert feels about #dadlife. Though you have to really listen to hear what's he saying, there's no mistaking that he's loving life.

"[Having a baby] makes you feel very old and very young," he said with a smile that reached his eyes. "She's so cute...You know, I'm amazed by how quickly their personality comes. So even at three months, I'm like, 'Oh … I can kinda see who she is already.'"

Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson welcomed their first baby together earlier this year and it was one of the best baby news we'd come across!

People shared that Suki Waterhouse practically floated on the red carpet while wearing a custom-made red Valentino gown that showed off her growing baby bump. She looked ethereal as the camera caught several angles of her face and the cut-out portions of her gown that revealed her and Robert Pattinson's baby.

Funnily enough, the gown had to be altered before it fit her frame perfectly. She said, "I was really excited about this look, Valentino...but it didn't even — like, I had to hold it. The fitting was just me holding it to my. body, so they had to really...redesign this dress to make it fit the bump."

As far as we're concerned, it all worked out in the end! Honestly, we love that more mamas are choosing to redefine their maternity style.

This 'Gilmore Girls' Season 1 Moment Proves Rory Really DIDN'T Have What It Takes To Be A Journalist

It was the TV character arc heard round the world: after learning her boyfriend's dad didn't think she had what it takes to be a journalist, Rory Gilmore 1. Dropped out of Yale. 2. Stole a yacht and stopped talking to her mom. 3. Grew into the kind of journalist who didn't have pitches prepared and didn't ask good questions. But, according to one Reddit theory, Gilmore Girls actually hinted Rory wasn't cut out for the career at the very beginning of the series.

Warner Bros. TV

"Do you guys remember how in S1, at Chilton, Rory was given a very mundane journalistic task about the paving of the parking lot, and she wrote a piece on how everything and everyone becomes obsolete?" one Reddit user asks. "Even though the teacher was praising her, I thought it was the weirdest journalistic angle. It's so... literary and philosophical. Then it dawns on me - well, of course! She isn't a journalist. She is a writer."

As a writer myself, I totally relate, understand, and approve this theory. Journalism uses an objective, straightforward part of your brain, while creative writing requires so much creativity and imagination to breathe life into something other people would find obsolete (like that parking lot piece).

Neil Jacobs/Netflix

A Year in the Life shows us that Rory truly shines in the creative writing world because while her story on waiting in lines leaves something to be desired, she comes alive writing a novelized version of her and Lorelai's life. "She really does appear to have so much fun writing Gilmore Girls," the Reddit user continues.

Despite making many mistakes, leaning into her love of writing isn't actually one of them. She just needed to find the right kind of writing to really shine. Because let me tell you, when you do find that sweet spot, where your soul comes alive and your typing can barely keep up with your brain, you truly feel most like yourself.

Warner Bros. TV

TBH, this is just further confirmation that she deserves to be with Jess Mariano. Who pushed her to be the best version of herself? Who wrote a book and came back just to tell her? (That's right — Jess). It's all very Laurie and Little Women to me!!! And the fact that Rory immediately lets her guard down and spills her guts shows just how comfortable she is with him.

"It's the fact that Rory hasn't seen Jess in four years, but within ten seconds of him sitting down — without him even really ASKING her anything — she is sharing all her deepest fears," Facebook user Victoria TP says. "One conversation, and she's more vulnerable and honest with Jess than she is with any other person in her life."

Netflix

I mean, just look at that final yearning, longing stare!!! I can hear the wedding bells.

How To Get Last Minute Taylor Swift Concert Tickets (Yes, Really)
