BTW, I’ve owned many other amazing non MAC reds but have let them go away since it has to be MAC for work. Plus they always ended up getting discontinued.

I could never narrow it down to one red. Some of my favs are Russian Red or Ruby Woo l/s with cherry or brick lipliner, Viva Glam I, IV or VI with Red Enriched cremestick. I still have a few LE colors like Port Red, Red She Said, Classic Dame & Rapturous Mattenes, that I rotate. I don’t like to wear gloss over my red lipsticks although I will wear a gloss by itself like Russian Red or Cult of Cherry L/G.
Every red lip starts for me with Benetint, Clear lip liner, a lip brush, and blotting with tissue and powder between layers.
I believe every woman should wear and own a gorgeous red lipstick. Don’t think you can pull it off? Buy one and wear it everywhere for a few weeks. At the end you’ll feel naked without it.
