Even those who’ve never stepped into a Sephora or Ulta have heard someone in their life — or Rihanna — utter the words “Ruby Woo.” Not only is it one of the most popular M.A.C shades to morph into a top-seller for the brand. It’s also an iconic beauty product, period, though there are other colors that have garnered just as much notoriety for their color payoff and long-wear capabilities.
Lipstick has long been regarded as a must-have for even the most novice makeup wearers and those who rarely wear it. We keep one in our purse, at our work desk, and in the car. There’s one or many tubes we rely on for date nights, parties and family gatherings. Even if it’s a simple nude or blush tone, lipstick is that old-faithful that easily elevates a beauty moment when our skills or time are limited. And for many, M.A.C is the go-to. Its lipsticks are about as classic as Chanel No. 5 and Pond’s Cold Cream, meaning that even if lip color isn’t your thing, you’ve felt the pressure to try at least once.
So whether you’re a newbie or have simply never experienced the dose of confidence a M.A.C lippie brings, here are the shades that have earned cult status over the years and deserve your attention.
Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.
