Maybe I’ll give MAC another chance at my lips, then, if I can find a less-drying formula.

Bobbi Brown “Raisin”. Hmmmm never occurred to me before “raisin” may not be the descriptive word for the look I’m going for.

Swayframe -Yep, some of the mattes are very dry.

Makedo -List the colors for godsake!

Iheartfashion -I have the “Sinner Red”, but you must have guessed that.

Honeypants: Hahahaha! What product are you looking for??

fashion herald -What’s weird is that some colors aren’t as dry: Russian Red isn’t nearly as dry as Ruby Woo. Even the MAC counter-girls admit it.

Wendy B- HA! May I borrow that motto?

HelOnWHeels – I KNOW there’s a red out there that would be perfect for you!

Love it that MAC’s is using Dame Edna! I think they had an Eddie Izzard (my other favorite transvestite) lippy line a few years back. Will have to check it out even though I can’t wear most red lipstick.

I might have to try this color based on your recommendation. And the more lead the merrier, is what I always say.

swayframe – they used to crack and dry out my lips too, although it could be my skin type – always have dry lips. and i haven’t used them in a while, so I don’t know if this is still true.
love that mac is using dame edna.

It is extremely hard for me to pull off a true red. In the rare cases that I do, it needs constant maintenance, which is more than I usually have the patience for. But next time I’m at the MAC store, I’ll check this one out. I AM a sucker for packaging!!!

P.S. We just had our first Sephora store open a couple of months ago. I walked in and was greeted by about 10 people. One asked me “So what brings you to Sephora?” I matter of factly replied “Addiction.” She laughed and said that was the best response she’s ever heard, and she’d be sharing it at the next meeting or huddle or whatever they call it at Sephora. I couldn’t leave without spending at least $75, and then I ran over to the MAC store afterwards to buy a sorry substitute for the item I fell in love with at Sephora (but it was sold out).

Stay away from the cheap stuff only good quality (lead or no lead) ones will do – everyone needs red lipstick and in a variety of shades. At the last count I had 3 Chanel and 2 laura mercier.

MAC lipsticks always dry out my lips bad. Does this happen to you?
