Over the years, the color red has somewhat become synonymous with the Grammy-winning, legendary singer we’ve all come to know and love. Maybe it’s because of her album Red or the fact that she rocks red lipstick like no other, but fans can’t get enough of Taylor Swift’s daring, go-to lip color.

For those that don’t know, Swift swears by one shade. Any guesses?

It’s the ever-so-iconic MAC Cosmetics Matte Lipstick in Ruby Woo, which she first discovered the lipstick in 2009. She told People about it in 2015, “It’s a staple. I was the last person to discover it.”

And it’s on major sale for 25 percent off.
