If you're looking for a dangerous piece of jewelry, the [killer lipstick ring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dynamic-duo-lipstick) is exactly what you've been searching for.

This ring from REDVLVT is for the woman who likes to make a [bold statement](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu); this accessory definitely won't go unnoticed. Instead of fitting nicely over one finger as a simple accent, the band is attached to a fake three inch lipstick. The fashion piece doesn't have the name 'killer' in it for nothing; the ring comes only in a bloody red, adding to its ferocity. The stick is a sleek black and the band is a [striking gold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crw001g9jr) -- the combination of these scream for attention. If one lipstick isn't enough, buy a few and wear a set of three.

The killer lipstick definitely sends the message that you're not a woman to be messed with.
