I've had this lipstick for a while now. It was a gift from my brother last Christmas 2009 (he's girlfriend, now fiancee actually chose this). It's the only Red Lipstick I own and I love it! I've always been afraid to wear red lipstick, thinking that I couldn't pull it off. But I was so wrong, I received compliments when I wore this and it looked amazing on me. It's just the perfect shade of red for me.
What I like about it...
* inexpensive
* it's matte (I love matte lipsticks)
* did not make my lips dry
* no scent / fragrance-free
* very pigmented
* smooth and glides easily
* packaging is awesome, I don't have to worry about it in my makeup bag.
* didn't experience any itch or allergies
* stays long, it lasted for more than 5 hours. Even though I ate and drink it still looked just as great as when it was first applied.* the color is not bright. It's not fuchsia nor orange,
it's just a perfect deep matte red
What I don't like...
* absolutely nothing!My rating: 5 / 5
This "In the Red" shade is just wearable. Really works great for my skin tone. For reference, I am Asian - Filipino with yellow / golden undertones. The Revlon matte lipstick collection also has another red shade called "Really Red" but that's the kind of red lipstick I stay away from. It's a super bright red shade which is scary...lol
TIPS: Wear neutral eye make-up for an elegant look. I don't apply any eyeshadow when I'm wearing red lipstick. I simply line my upper lash line with a black eyeliner and apply a touch of matte blush on my cheeks for a natural pinched cheek look.
I only wear this lipstick when I'm wearing a black blouse or shirt. I think it makes the red color stand out.
How about you ladies, have you found the perfect Red Lipstick yet?
This is it for now.
Cheerios!
