MAC Ruffian Gold Layered Over Ruffian Red Lipstick
If we weren’t absolutely positive whether Ruffian Red was warm or not, you’ll definitely turn it into a warm red by layering Ruffian Gold on top of it. Red and gold is a very popular combination, and while it might not read summer (or even fall), it’s certainly a go-to layering for the holidays. The small sized particles in Ruffian Gold make it ideal for layering, because it really mixes and blends with the underlying lipstick, rather than just sitting on top, like a gloss might. The effect between this and a gold-shimmered gloss is still very close, so if you already have a gold gloss, try layering it over your favorite red lipstick.
When layering, it’s best to use a separate lip brush to apply Ruffian Gold over Ruffian Red, but if you’re pressed for time or are on-the-go, you could try applying Ruffian Gold first, and then applying Ruffian Red–you’ll get some particles on the tube of red lipstick, but you won’t turn your gold lipstick all red. With gloss, I like using a fingertip to really blend the colors together after the initial application.

This reminds me of Chanel Dragon so much. Really pretty combo.
@MIRIANV it does!!!!
I like this combination a lot and reminds me of the covergirl duo’s
Great colour mix, and the red is so pigmented! I never thought to layer gold on top of red before 🙂

Great combo! You’re right, gold and red almost always read holiday to me. I can see it working on an overcast fall day, though — it’ll inject some glamour into the dreary day!
wow i never liked frosty lipsticks until this
Oh yum. Now I want both lol
Gorgeous red, so bright ! I do have red lipsticks but this one is just a must-have !
Separately, Gold is kinda meh and Red is pretty but isn’t terribly unique–but these 2 together are gorgeous!
That’s such a beautiful color! I’m in love!
Oh wow, now I’m glad I bought them both.
okay, so I don’t feel so bad about caving.. it looks fab!
nooooo, now i have to get ruffian gold.
you cant even see the gold! the maxfactor flipsticks are much better quality!! mac is seriously going down the toilet in my opinon!
@BethaneyMars what exactly do you want it to look like? a christmas decoration?
I think it looks great!For the really un-shy, Kryolan (I think; it’s one of those theatrical makeup lines) makes a lipstick called “Gold Ice,” that looks very similar to Ruffian Gold, but may be a bit more opaque.A light dab in the center of the lower lip, over a deep lipstick, gives an “ombre” effect.The Kryolan is an option for those who miss out on Ruffian Gold.
love this!!!
That is GORGEOUS and it looks great on you!
I think it was pointless doing it over the gold, i’m pretty sure people want to see how the ruffian looks by itself, but you’re still gorgeous as always
@RehiaAnderson Please read the post below, as I reviewed each lipstick individually and showed each one individually. This was a separate post showing the two layered.
Gorgeous!
Adore this combo! Stunning! 🙂

I love it!!! perfect together!!!
Loving this. Think I will get this when I get paid. Wish it was at Dillard’s or Macy’s
That’s perfect!
I got pretty bummed when I missed out on Chanel Dragon, but I daresay this is something that could replace my lemming! What do you reckon @Christine (Temptalia) ?
@domncroxd Dragon looks very different, IMO!
You can get a similar effect using the nars lipstain duo in Indian Red/Moon Fleet
Sexy! 😉
I just bought the three lip colors! OMG!
Very va va voom Christine! Love your earrings too 🙂
What eyeshadow are you wearing? 🙂
