Whenever I need confidence, a pick me up when I'm feeling blue or a product to make me look rosy, I always turn to red lipstick. For months I've seen bloggers write about this wonder product named 'Ruby Woo' and dreamt of having it in my collection. I had been to the nearest MAC store a few times and to my horror it was all sold out. I very rarely buy a lipstick without trying it on or swatching it across my hands and when its MAC prices, it's definitely better to see it for yourself. A few weeks ago when I went to the Trafford centre for the first, I finally had the opportunity to buy the lipstick and in all fairness, it's so much better than I ever expected.
Ruby Woo for as long as I can remember has been hailed as one of the best red lipsticks by beauty bloggers. It's very to come across a blog that hasn't mentioned the wonders of MAC or this lipstick. The temptation to buy said product has been niggling at me for months and now I have it in my hands, it's a product that will always say in my handbag.
I don't know whether it's the beautiful vintage red colouring or the long matte staying power that pulls me into this product, but both of these factors combined makes for a fabulous lipstick. The formula unfortunately can be quite drying, but it makes up for it in longevity and the fact that this lipstick won't budge when you're sipping a glass of wine on a Friday night, it even passes the kissing factor. It's not completely kissable, but it leaves less of a print than much lipsticks I have worn and that's something even my fiance can be happy about when it comes to Ruby Woo. The price of this lipstick is £15 which is a little bit pricey, but nevertheless a good investable price for a lipstick that will keep on giving.
Have you tried Ruby Woo before?
I LOVE Ruby Woo! I lost mine a while ago and I've been trying to resist re-purchasing it because I have so many red lipsticks but I think you've made my mind up for me! I need it!
ReplyDeleteNever been a big fan of MAC lipsticks, I don't know what it is lol. I tried Chatterbox last year and it was just not sitting right so I tried my sisters and same again, my lips are made to stay nude lol. Great post though it looks really good and I LOVE the Trafford Centre, I literally spend hours on end in there. xx

I never been quite brave enough for a red lipstick but may have to give this one a whirl for the Christmas season.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could wear lipstick, I'm the one who gets it all over her teeth & forgets to reapply, I can barely manage lip gloss. Looks great on you though! Love that colour :)
