a good, basic red lipstick that isn't drying and is just the right shade. if you are either new to red lipstick or don't want to waste a lot of time looking for the "perfect" red, this if your pick.

I love this lipstick. It simply glides on my lips. It is on the top of my favorites.

This lipstick is just ok to me. I'm not too into red lipstick but I'm trying things outside my comfort zone and have found reds I do really like. But I'm not an expert in seeing the nuances of...

This is a bright red!! I have a lighter skin tone and it doesn’t suit me at all! The colour makes me look like a clown especially because it’s a shiny finish. I think maybe someone who is a paler...

I bought it blind, based on reviews and online photos and - surprise! - it's even better than I expected. It's such a complex colour and digital photography does not do it justice. M.A.C. Red...

I love love this lipstick! Its very pigmented and isn't drying like Ruby Woo. It lasts for about 3 to 4 hours and its a perfect true red. If you like creamier red lipsticks then I would recommend...

This is the first MAC red lipstick that I'm trying (as in the shade, not the name) and I really like it. It seems to me to be more subdued than other reds (namely Dior) and I don't feel awkward...

MAC Red is one of my favourite red lipsticks. It is true red which looks great on both warm and cool skintones. It is has a shiny finish and is comfortable to wear, thanks to the matte finish....

The Satin formula makes it lasts long on the lips (though not transfer-proof) and very comfortable to wear. It's a bold red but not a bright red like Lady Danger. It's also not a deep red either...

My first red lipstick was Ruby Woo. Highly regretted because it was so so drying. This was the next purchase, and I am very pleased. It looks like a true red on me, the formula is smooth and easy...

This has to be one of the most underrated red lipsticks that MAC has. I usually only hear about Ruby Woo or Russian Red. I love the super matte transfer-proof formula that Ruby Woo has but I...

I love this red blueish lipstick! When I tried it on I fell in love, it just lights up my whole face. It was all I could wear last year and my tube is almost empty. Will repurchase for sure. Only...

Though I rarely wear red lipsticks, I purchased this two years ago. I could not find a true red for my pigmented lips no matter the brand I purchased. I hated Ruby woo and sent back Russian red. I...

This was the first red lipstick I ever owned and I purchased it while on a school trip when I was 15 years old and I am now 21 and I STILL have it. It's the perfect true red on my medium brown skin...

I am Afro Am, brown skin, dark brown eyes. I LOVE this lipstick. It's perfect for a classic day look, or i can add a gloss to jazz it up at night. Gorgeous.

Perfect! Way better than matte lipsticks.... It's the red every girl should have! You can use it during the whole day, depending on the rest of your make up!
