MAC Perfect Score Lipstick ($17.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a "deep red [with a Matte finish]." It's a medium-dark red with subtle, cool undertones and a semi-matte finish. The pigmentation was fantastic and covered lips with opaque color in a single pass. It had a velvety consistency that applied easily and didn't tug on the lips.
