RiRi Woo Review & Swatches

Well hello there.

So after all the hype and glueing my eyes to the Mac website whilst  frantically trying to add this baby to my cart and proceed with the wind to checkout....it has finally, well, they have finally made their way into my arms all the way in Trinidad.

MAC RiRi Woo Lipstick ($15.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a “matte cool red [with a retro matte finish].” It’s a deep, medium-dark red with strong cool undertones and a matte finish. It has a slight more blue hue than that of big sis Ruby Woo.

In my opinion, the difference isn't very noticeable, and to be quite honest, it looks like the same lipstick.  However, I do not feel cheated as the texture is somewhat different to Ruby Woo, since it is much more moist in comparison. And we all know how dry Ruby Woo is.

RiRi Woo has Rihanna’s signature etched around the side of the lipstick itself.  I would have loved to have seen Mac do a bit more with the packaging though.

This lipstick was only available online and sold and Rihanna concerts, but catch it next time around when Mac re-releases it with the rest of the RirRi ♥'s Mac in June.

I absolutely love everything Robyn Rihanna Fenty and I will duly support my fellow Island Girl, even moreso in this venture.

I am so ready for more...

Dupe maybe???? LA Girl Soulmate vs Mac Runaway Red

I recently purchased Runaway Red from the Shop Mac Cook Mac collections and even though it's slightly darker than my LA Girl Soulmate lippie, it reminded me a lot of it. I may even say it's a dupe. You be the judge...


Oh!!! Also, Runaway Red has a Satin finish and is more matte than Soulmate.

Mac Shop Mac, Cook Mac: Runaway Red Review and Swatches

So Runaway Red is a very vibrant red. At first glance I thought it would be a bit darker when I put it on but it was not. It has a satin finish and it very moist. This is the perfect statement lipstick and is the Yin to my Ruby Woo yang as Ruby Woo is extremely matte and very dry but I love it all the same.





This looks a lot like my LA Girl 'Soulmate' lipstick which was what inspired me to wear bold lipsticks. Will do a comparison soon to see if it's a dupe. 



Stay Glam!
