Pros
1. This is a classic red lipstick from MAC that suits most skin tones well, with a vibrant red color that has a bluish undertone. 2. The color lasts for a long time and has minimal transfer. 3. It provides intense, opaque coverage with just one application. 4. As a classic red color, it can complete a look on its own.
Cons
1. The retro matte texture can make the application thick and drying on the lips. 2. If the lip condition is not good, flakiness may become prominent, so lip balm or lip primer is essential if the lip condition is poor. 3. It must be applied neatly in one go, and it is difficult to reapply.
Tip
When you want a classic yet sophisticated red lip, this is a good choice, but the dry texture can be burdensome, so you need to pay attention to lip care.

Pros
✨ MAC Retro Matte Lipstick Ruby Woo Review ✔ Recommended for: •Those looking for a signature red lip 🔥 •Those who prefer a vibrant, matte finish ✨ •Those needing a statement makeup look for special occasions 💋 •Those seeking a universally flattering color, regardless of undertone 🌟 ☑️ Application Ruby Woo has a matte formula, so it may feel slightly stiff upon initial application. However, once on the lips, the color applies evenly and provides full coverage with just one swipe, which was very satisfying. ☑️ Color This is a classic, pure red shade that is neutral and flattering on all skin tones. It gives a radiant, urban feel, making it ideal for statement makeup looks. It's better suited for special occasions rather than everyday wear. ☑️ Longevity True to its matte nature, the lipstick has impressive staying power. The color remained largely intact even after meals, minimizing the need for touch-ups. ☑️ Other Notes •Despite being matte, the finish has a velvety feel that prevents the lips from becoming overly dry. •The bold color payoff and long-lasting wear make this an excellent choice for evening events or important occasions. 💖 Overall The MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in Ruby Woo is a classic, quintessential red lip product. Its intense red hue and outstanding durability make it a perfect item for creating a striking, elegant makeup look for special events! If you're seeking a powerful yet sophisticated look, I highly recommend this.
Cons
The matte texture may feel a bit thick when used for the first time. If you prefer a smoother application, I recommend applying a small amount of lip balm or lip primer before use. Additionally, the vibrant red color requires careful touch-ups to maintain a clean, flawless look during wear.
Tip
Try this tip! Use a lip brush to apply lipstick precisely all the way to the edges! You can create a more perfect lip line this way. Also, adding a touch of clear gloss can give you a different, unique look.

Pros
If the tone matches well, it is definitely pretty. It gives a somewhat brightening effect on the face, so to speak. The lasting power is also decent, and the spreadability is not bad either. The fragrance also seems quite nice.
Cons
There is a slightly thick texture, making it a bit difficult to apply, but exfoliating is essential. It is also one of the lip products that blends the tone very well, so be sure to test it before purchasing.

Pros
The color is so beautiful. It will likely suit Gyeokul Bright well. This lipstick looks best when applied with a full lip. I highly recommend this as a must-have item for Gyeokul.
Cons
It's a bit too thick, so I can't use it on days when I get lip flakes. However, if I mix it with a super glossy lip, it wipes off right away. I recommend this to those with moisturized lips.

Pros
The color is so beautiful, and you can express a variety of colors depending on whether you apply it thinly or thickly!
Cons
It's quite matte and applies thickly. Blending doesn't work well when applying it.
Tip
If you dab it on, you can also get a beautiful gradient!

Pros
The color payoff of MAC is truly the best! While the moisturizing type is good, MAC's matte lipsticks have great color payoff and lasting power, which is why I keep coming back to them! Especially Ruby Woo - just applying it on top of a tone-up sun cream can instantly brighten up the face, making it perfect for a natural yet polished makeup look.
Cons
Since it's a matte lipstick, the application can be a bit stiff and dry, and it can accentuate flaky lips, especially in the winter.
Tip
Applying a lip balm along with it can help alleviate the dryness.

Pros
Even after many years, it is still my all-time favorite, the classic of red lips.
Cons
It gets a bit dry, so it doesn't apply all the way to the inner lips. Other than that, it's all good.

Pros
The vibrant cool red color is absolutely beautiful. The radiant red looks refreshing and has a chocolatey fragrance that feels pleasant when applied. It's not unpleasant at all, which explains its popularity. However, I find it slightly floating, which is a bit disappointing, though it's not the product's fault.
Cons
It's quite thick in texture. While the dryness after application isn't too severe, the thick consistency requires more effort to apply, leading to a heavier application.

Pros
A winter-cool tone winter true-fit item❤️ Even colors that are hard to pull off become wearable when you dab on the center ruby red💖
Cons
It's a bit dry as it's a matte lipstick It's on the thicker side in terms of application, so it would be better if it were more smooth
Tip
Note that it's a slightly heavy, sophisticated red rather than a lively one

Pros
The famous Mac Red Lip that I bought has the thickest texture among Mac lipsticks!! It's best to dab it on while applying for the best color payoff! It's not a perfect formula, but it works well for warm skin tones too!
Cons
Thick texture! While it lasts a very long time, the inconvenient application is unavoidable haha
Tip
Rather than swiping it on the lips, it's better to dab it on for good color payoff!
