    I really like this lipstick. It's matte, but it isn't as dry as Ruby Woo is. It isn't my absolute favorite shade of red lipstick, but it is indeed pretty awesome and up there on my list. It...

    If I need a great red l/s, I look for RR and that is all I'll ever need. Texture is creamy, long lasting color, fair price. MAC thank you! Will repurchase. NC30, black hair.
