I'm 99% certain that Lady Gaga sported this exact red lipstick at the Super Bowl—it's already in my cart for Valentine's Day.
Last night, Bad Bunny made Super Bowl history—according to early reports from CBS News—with the most-watched halftime performance ever, garnering an astounding 135 million viewers. Amidst the spectacle of on-stage dancers, sugarcane plants, and star-studded guests surrounding the Puerto Rican megastar's theatrical show, I was surprised to see Lady Gaga delivering an upbeat rendition of her hit "Die With a Smile," sporting a striking ruby-red lip that I can't wait to replicate this Valentine's Day.

Complementing her tropical floral theme and matching cherry shoes was her vibrant red lip. While I haven’t yet deciphered her exact look, I believe I've narrowed down the products from her makeup line, Haus Labs.
Gaga collaborated with her longtime makeup artist and Haus Labs global artistry director, Sarah Tanno, to create her instantly recognizable Benito Bowl glam. Although Tanno has yet to share her formula for the shiny lip, these Haus Labs items appear to be strong candidates. Article continues below

Haus Labs Le Monster Lip Crayon Vegan Lipstick and Lip Liner in Garnet Matte
Haus Labs Le Monster Lip Crayon Vegan Lipstick and Lip Liner in Scarlet Matte Since this lip leans more towards apple red than oxblood, I suspect she used the classic Scarlet Matte crayon to brighten the center of her lips. Combining the creamy, lightweight formula with a deeper lip liner fosters a dimensional, 3D effect that enhances the lips, especially paired with her trendy bleached brows.
Haus Labs Color Fuse Longwear Hydrating Glassy Lip + Cheek Blush Balm Stick in Glossy Watermelon If you look closely, you’ll notice a radiant, juicy sheen on the singer's scarlet lips. I theorize that Tanno added a touch of Haus Labs' Color Fuse Lip + Cheek Blush Balm Stick in Glossy Watermelon over the lipstick mixture for added luster.
Haus Labs PhD Hybrid Hydrating Tinted Lip Oil in Primary I might be suggesting a few extra products, but I cannot overlook the moisturizing elixir that is Haus Labs' PhD Hybrid Hydrating Tinted Lip Oil. In a recent TikTok, Tanno stated that Gaga wore the clementine Secondary shade with the Le Monster Lip Crayon at the Grammys, leading me to think that she might have opted for the cherry Primary for this glossy finish. A few gentle swipes in the center of her lips would elevate the already glossy appearance further.
However, I have several additional red lip recommendations for anyone wanting to replicate her dimensional look as Valentine's Day approaches. Check out editor-approved red lipsticks, glosses, and more, starting at just $6.
