Feels So Grand

MAC Feels So Grand Retro Matte Liquid Lipstick ($20.00 for 0.17 fl. oz.) is described as a "deep true red." It's a medium-dark red with neutral-to-cool undertones and a flat, matte finish. It had mostly opaque color payoff with a really smooth, even finish. This shade was one of the better-applying shades in the range and felt a lot more effortless to use.
