I just found a tube of this in a makeup kit that's been in storage for five years. It still has not gone rancid. Good thing, too, because this is a very beautiful true red and I fully intend to use it again. It's not matte, but it has a nice soft finish and doesn't have any orange at all.

I love this color. It is a red with a wine/burgundy/garnet hint. This color just does something for the mouth. I wore it yesterday, after I found it at the back of my makeup case and slide MAC's sheer red lippie over it to give it a little shine. This is a true matte red that goes on smooth and evenly. It has a nice creamy but not silky texture that makes applications a dream. It's true, it's deep and it's sexy. Love it!

A beautiful deep red, with a hint of garnet. No orange, no blue- certainly no brown in this one. Perfect, but the staying powder isn't as good as Chanel or Nars.

A nice red. Feels great. Just a little to browny/orangey to go in my top 10 true reds.

Simply the best red lipstick anywhere. The truest of reds, not too orange or blue, slightly matte. Love it.
