revlon really red matte lipstick. review and swatches.

What a gorgeous retro red! Although this isn't a new product I wanted to share it since I think it is one of the prettiest, truest reds I've seen and those are hard to find. I was a long time lover of MAC's Russian Red however it leans cool on me and on my warm skin tone it never looked quite perfect. Que Really Red..love it!
This is a matte formula but it glides on easily and isn't drying. I honestly love Revlon's matte line..I think they kinda knocked this formula out of the park.

It doesn't have too strong of a smell or taste which I appreciate and it wears well. Putting a gloss on top seems to darken it a bit but it's still gorgeous. I love pairing this with a clean, graphic and winged black liner, a shimmery champagne eyeshadow and a strong brow.

Please excuse the uber-shiny and horrible self-portrait. I'm still figuring out light and angles. Can you tell I'm not a pro!? In any case I would have to say if you wear reds then you need this in your collection..if you don't buy it anyway and start wearing reds. This one looks good on everyone.
