Editor's Review

MAC Runway Hit Lipstick ($16.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a "light nude matte [with a Retro Matte finish]." It's a muted, light-medium pink-coral with a matte finish. The texture is dry and very firm, which makes it harder to apply from the tube as it tugs and drags along the lips. The Retro Matte formula is one best applied with a lip brush to minimize irritating the lips. It had mostly opaque coverage, and it lasted for five hours but the color pulled into lip lines somewhat. The formula was drying over time, which is my typical experience with the Retro Matte finish. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

I love this color so much, but the main problem is that the formula is too DRY!!!! I can't stand!. I try many moisture balms for this lipstick and nothin works with it.

Really nice color however the texture was terrible!!! Its one of those colors that is very summer without being too coral or pink, its in that perfect in between which is why I brought it!! But as I said the texture makes me regret purchasing, it went on dry and turned almost flakey with in hours, which was surprising since Mac's lipsticks are usually amazing! Overall I would not recommend without a gloss, which being a matte lipstick shouldn't be the case!
