Smile! You've Been Duped!
I'm all about helping people find out ways to create their look, while working within means of their budget. Also - who doesn't like finding what you want for an even better price?!
Sometimes stores aren't accessible in person to check out and swatch products, so the drug stores are the closest bet most times.
One of the top lipsticks people go on about in the pinup scene is Mac's 'Ruby Woo' lipstick.
Whilst still on the hunt for a perfect dupe of Chanel No 5, I thought I'd dive into this shade of lipstick to see if I could find any similar ones to recommend to people - and I lucked out!
So here's some of my findings if you wish to pick one up! x
Revlon Super Lustrous The Luscious Mattes Lipstick in 'Really Red'. This one I would really recommend since it is the closest colour and finish.
Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte in 'Rich Ruby'. The shade is also nearly identical, but has more moisturizing effect than the original - so that can make wear a bit more pleasant.
Wet n Wild MegaLast Matte Lipstick in 'Stoplight Red'. Highly pigmented, while flattering a variety of skin tones..what more could one want? Super affordability, too? Check!
NYX Matte Lipstick in 'Perfect Red'. I'm a NYX girlie when it comes to cosmetics, and this lipstick is pretty nice (all bias aside). Highly comparable in pigment, neutral to cool red shade, with a smooth and non-drying matte finish.
Those are only a few that I found when digging, but there's countless brands out in the cosmetic industry that probably has similar shades. These are just a few to help guide you down that yellow brick road to get you some of that Ruby goodness.
Have a fantabulous day, and keep on shining!
