    I had been lemming for this lipstick for eons and eons after trying it on my hand at the nearby counter. Finally, after mulling over whether or not to actually purchase this, a wonderful MUAer...

    Wow! What a beautiful red, it's not orangey or pinkish at all! Even after hours it doesn't fade into a strange color-it stays the same vibrant, dare I say classy? shade. I get tons of compliments...

    I really like this colour. I even wore it when I got married (who says brides have to wear pink!). I am a PPP with very dark hair and blue/green eyes - this is just a fabulous blue/red and I...

    A gorgeous, bold, true red lipstick that makes me feel like a glamourous 50's movie star whenever I wear it. ;) I'm a cool PPP (NW15, light brown hair, green eyes) and for some reason always get...

    MAC makes the greatest matte l/s. I'm so into red l/s and if you are too, this is a must. It's a true blue toned red. It has that 40's red lip look. It looks good with NARS Crazed blush.

    This is the one lipstick where I get CONSTANT compliments on. It is a blue-red which matches my middle-eastern neutral skin tone with slight yellow undertones. I only wear it for special...

    My old standby red lipstick. I am particularly partial to matte lipsticks, and MAC has a pretty good formulation. Not chalky, and they go on smoothly. Some people find they can be drying, so a lip...

    I like this red, it's matte and bright, but I don't reach for it as often as I should. I don't think I'd wear this during the day because it's way too dramatic for me. Nice to have though.

    This is a gorgeous matte true red. It's almost neutral, but leans a bit to the cool side. It feels a bit drying and I think it chapped my lips a bit, but I love this color either full-strength or...

    Now this is one RED lipstick. It is gorgeous, but in my opinion, too much for the office. This is more of an evening lipstick for me that looks great with Cherry l/l.

    Love this color!! It's a real true red, not bright but not dark. It's also the fabulous MAC matte formula, which I love. Whenever I can't decide what red to wear, I usually go for this one.

    This is the perfect blue-based red. Dark and vibrant while remaining truly red. I usually like an even darker red, but as far as true reds go, this is IT. What's the worst thing about wearing red...
