Lipstick is categorically the most transformative of all the make-up products. Though it may sound it at first, that's really not an overstatement - think of how much a slick of red, nude, or even deep blue lipstick transforms everything on your face from how much your eyes sparkle to making your skin tone look dull or, if you nail the right shade, rudely healthy.
The Golden Globe attendees know about the extraordinary powers of lipstick all too well and, when they hit the carpet last night, some cracking hues were pulled out. We got the gossip from the make-up artists who picked those colour bullets so that you can buy the exact shade these A-listers sported:

Emma Stone: Nars Audacious Lipstick in Dominique
Rachel Goodwin's suffragette colour palette meant that Stone's lips were defiantly deep purple - and it looked fantastic. Pair with blush for the best results.

Margot Robbie: Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in #40 & #50
Using two shades was a deft move by make-up artist Pati Dubroff - the illusion of a touch of light in the centre of the lower lip enhances a pout, meaning if you make like Margot, your lips will look extra juicy.
Available at Selfridges | £28

Claire Foy: Chantecaille's Lip Stick in Cerise
We were delighted to see that Foy's make-up artist Georgie Eisdell went for a richly-pigmented whack of red. Make sure you conceal redness on your face if you're going for this one.
Available at Look Fantastic | £30

Emily Ratajkowski: Marc Jacobs New Nudes Sheer Gel Lipstick in Understudy
Make-up artist Hung Vanngo cleverly paired Emily's red eyeshadow with this nude, sheer lipstick by Marc Jacobs.
