    This is a really pretty lipcolor. A nice brick shade that is perfect for fall/winter. It does seem like it bleeds some so def. use liner with it, and it feels drying as well so next time I wear...

    This is a lovely brick-red shade, with just the right balance of pink and brown, and no orange undertones. I'm fairly light-skinned with pinkish undertones, reddish-brown hair, and blue eyes, and...

    On my PPP (red hair, green eyes) Retro shows up as a warm red. It lives up to its namesake-- a very pearls-and-pumps color. It's a satin, but like many MAC satins, it feels more matte. But it has...

    I've been using this shade for years--- I love it. I saw it on a co-worker and she is fair skin, with light brown hair and green eyes. The color looked so natural on her, yet I gave her lips a...

    I recived this color in a swap. It's a pretty deep dark brown red, that on my lips is only brown. I mix this with a light pink lipstick and it highlights the red tones in the lipstick. It's pretty,...

    This is my favorite pink/brown lipstick. It looks beautifull with my olive/gold skin and red hair. Definately for warm skinned tone faces. The staying power is amazing. I will add this as a staple.

    I have fairly cool toned skin, and it definitely looks more orange than red on me. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though I don't often go for orange-brown lips. Make that never! But, eh, it's...

    This is a beautiful color if you look good in warm colors. However, I have a light, cool skin tone and Retro looks too orangey on me, so I will not be repurchasing.

    This is so similar to the Laura Mercier Bare Lips, Sexy Lips, HEalthy Lips line of colors that I felt really ripped off. Nothing special about this color at all. It is an ugly brownish red and it...

    A beautiful, wearable red that lasts. This is my second tube. The first one I got 8 years ago when I was 15 and I just recently remembered it because of makeup alley.

    I just received this in a swap from a very sweet lady. I can't believe there aren't a lot of reviews on this, so I'll add mine. As the previous reviewers have stated, it is a beautiful...

    When I went looking for a red lipstick, I was hoping for one like this, but did not know it existed: a glamour red that was not too blue, not orange, and a striking contrast for my pale skin. The...

    I'm on my third tube of Retro. It's the lipstick I have in my handbag all the time. It looks best when you use a lipbrush but this is a good one straight from the tube if you're in a rush. It's a...

    Retro is a beautiful matte reddish/brown shade on me- This is a great shade for pale ladies, like myself, who want to experiment with sophisticated, red shades- it's not too bright and has no...

    Love Retro. I think this is (at least) my 2nd one...and I plan to buy another when it runs out. It's a muted red (with some brown) and works well with my coloring. If it helps any, I also like...

    Retro is a soft red matte shade with some brown and maybe a touch of plum that is perfect for those that can't wear red very well. It reminds me a lot of Jane's Browned-Down Red, but not as pink...
