Zoe Saldana‘s tour de red lip continues! After sporting the bold hue at the Star Trek Into Darkness premieres in London and Los Angeles, she took the latest version to Cannes for the perfect finishing touch to her Valentino look. “Deep red lips gave a pop to the entire look,” said her makeup artist Vera Steimberg. “There’s no better place to rock a red lip than France!” Steimberg chose Laura Mercier‘s Stickgloss Lip Color in Cranberry, a crimson-plum hybrid with the slightest amount of shimmer. “It was the perfect color to complement the rest of Zoe’s makeup,” she added. Pick up the color for yourself at lauramercier.com for $22.

Red lipstick has been a popular choice for Zoe Saldana during her whirlwind Star Trek Into Darkness premiere tour, but the sanguine hue she paired with her daring Rodarte number in Los Angeles made the biggest impact yet! “As soon as I saw the dress, I knew we had to go with a red lip,” said her makeup artist Vera Steimberg, who chose Laura Mercier‘s Creme Smooth Lip Color in Hollywood. “I wanted to create a chic, French-inspired look for Zoe.” Because the striking color can bring out redness in your complexion, take extra time to conceal any imperfections so that your lips remain the focal point.

Zoe Saldana took the red carpet at the London premiere of Star Trek Into Darkness only hours ago, but we loved her bold orange-red lipstick so much, we just had to call her makeup artist Vera Steimberg to find out exactly what she used. “We went for a ’20s-inspired period look with Zoe today because we were so inspired by her amazing Vionnet dress,” said Steimberg, who chose Laura Mercier‘s lipstick in Portofino Red for the star. “I just couldn’t avoid using my red lipstick! From the moment she put the dress on, it just screamed red.” Saldana’s makeup was a modern take on the classic dark eye and bold lip popular in the 1920s, which Steimberg updated by using soft tones on the star’s lids, and a warm red lipstick. “I always say to start by choosing the right red,” she added. “Some people get scared of the bright color, but there are so many different versions out there, I can’t even tell you how many red lipsticks I have.” And the vivid crimson Saldana wore can be yours for $26—pick it up at lauramercier.com.
