Last night at the 2012 Los Angeles Premiere, Thandie Newton wowed the red carpet with sleek hair and bold red lips. Below, we also see her pictured in nude lipstick at a Calvin Klein party in New York City, and back in June, she was photographed at the annual Summertime Serpentine Gallery party in Hyde Park with bright pink lips.

Fall is the time to try out bold, dark, and deep lip tones, but sometimes the pH levels in your skin and simple oxidation can cause that fantastic bold berry hue to transform into a strange shade of orange by noon.
