Color is a redish with pink undertones. When I feel like putting a bit more color on my face (preferably during summer or fall) I apply this. Has a little shimmer and is really easy to wear. ...

I remember wearing NYC ultra moist lipsticks years ago (Sheer Red and Retro Red were my faves) and I decided to get Ruby because one reviewer mentioned it's a knock off for MAC's New York Apple...

If you like to experiment with new lip shades, NYC lipsticks are your best bet. These lipsticks are easily available in the drugstore. They have excellent pigmentation, they offer a great value for...

I love this lipstick. I recently started wearing lipstick, and I was on the hunt for a moisturizing formula that wasn't too red, just a nice deep Ruby. This fits the bill to a t, and the price...

This is a dark pink fuschia that leans towards red. I find it very wearable as most reds are too harsh on me. I think the shimmer is too much and I end up blotting. I think the formula is rather...

I actually took this lipstick from my sister and I loved the color so much, she gave me hers and I also bought a new one for myself. I'm a girl who loves bold lips and dark lips and this lipstick...

LOVE this lipstick! One of my all time favorite reds! Super sparkly and VERY moisturizing. The price is super reasonable, too. Only problem is it doesn't last very long, which is to be expected for...

I don't know why everyone is saying this is a pink tone. for my skin tone (NC 25) It worked perfectly and came out as a bright red. I loved the gold sparkles.

I was completely thrown off by the name of this lipstick and actually expected it to be red, instead of the hot, fuschia pink it ended up being. I swear, this was so bright on me that you could...

I just bought it yesterday. A package is so-so, but it's INEXPENSIVE and also GOOD, too! I like this color. I don't use it too much because it's gold shimmer. Next two days, I'll buy a new one...

Not only is this color amazing, but it is so inexpensive too! I love it! The one con would be it fades fast during the day when your out and about

Aside from NYC Sheer Red, Ruby is another one of my favorite red lipstick shades. Ruby isn't as universal as Sheer Red and is quite different in color and finish. Ruby looks warm on me and has a...

The colour is potentially pretty, in the tube and swatched, but it doesn't look good on my lips. Maybe it's my skintone? . The wear isn't good, the finish is so-so, the texture is gritty...

I love this lipstick. Number one it is easy on the budget and number two it is a really pretty color! I have always been intimidated by reds because I like to look a little more natural. I bought...

I bought this today because I needed a red l/s quick. It's a blue/red, lustre with some goldish shimmer, shows on me a pinkish/red. I wouldn't re-purchase because it bleeds and is gritty. It's what...

Pretty color. I was looking for something more red but that's the only thing that disappointed me about this. For a dollar, it's amazing. I'm into "pearl" lipsticks right now and this one is...

Love this product - the color is such a pretty red, it wears well, smells good and the price!!! I have many unfinished lippies that cost a fortune but this is my new HG.

I love this New York Color lipstick in Ruby. I need a bit of brightness as I am so fair-skinned and I am also an older lady. This gives just enough of a rosey-red color to lift my face. It...

This is a beautiful color with a perfect finish- just not on me; it goes too fuscia. I do love these lipsticks for 99 cents; they feel nice and moist on, but of course they aren't long lasting. ...
