Editor's Review

Nutcracker Rouge is a bright, medium red with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage, and it was surprisingly less pigmented than most Retro Mattes I've tried. The texture was more velvety but thin, and it was a struggle to spread the color across the lips evenly. It felt clingy on the lips, and while most of the color hung around for a good six hours, some of the color had faded away more noticeably around the center of the mouth. The formula was drying on me after three hours of wear. Kaleidos Wild Apple (P, $12.00) is darker (95% similar). ColourPop Superbloom (P, $10.00) is lighter (90% similar). ColourPop Fighter (LE, $7.00) is brighter, warmer (90% similar). NARS Clash (LE, $27.00) is more muted (90% similar). Chanel La Bouleversante (51) (DC, $45.00) is warmer, glossier (90% similar). NARS Bonifacio (LE, $27.00) is lighter (90% similar). Too Faced Rebel Heart (P, $22.00) is darker, warmer (90% similar). NARS Hyde Park (P, $25.00) is more shimmery (90% similar). YSL Rose Curieux (14) (P, $39.00) is lighter (90% similar). MAC High Heels (LE, $21.00) is darker (90% similar). ColourPop Trust Me (P, $6.00) is darker, brighter, warmer (90% similar). KVD Beauty Bachelorette (DC, $21.00) is brighter (95% similar). NARS Cruella (P, $27.00) is warmer (95% similar). NARS Jungle Red (DC, $28.00) is more shimmery, lighter, brighter (90% similar). MAC Pure Luck (LE, $22.00) is more muted (85% similar). Urban Decay 714 (DC, $18.00) is darker, brighter (90% similar). Too Faced Lady Balls (P, $21.00) is darker, brighter (85% similar). NARS Sandrine (LE, $34.00) is lighter, cooler (85% similar). MAC Feels So Grand (P, $21.00) is darker (90% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.
