I have to say Ruby woo is not my favourite MAC lipstick - the formula feels really drying and tugs really badly on the skin - but I'll be definitely checking out the other shade options because the set itself is such a great gift idea. Or rather self-gift idea *wink*.Beatricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04283890375735661664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-8634922601562195292014-11-02T15:28:06.777-05:002014-11-02T15:28:06.777-05:00I think the packaging really matters when it comes...I think the packaging really matters when it comes to MAC LEs.

I do yield for some unique and amazing colors, but now I think " would I wear this more than a few days a week?" That pretty much narrows down my choice.

My lips are super dry and sensitive so with how you describe the formula it may not get along with me sadly, the shade does look unique and pretty.

Retro Matte is totally unforgiving compared to Matte finish, but I will try to make it work this time. It is actually the totally matte finish that brings out the gorgeousness.
