Russian red mac vs Ruby woo
Russian Red is one of the iconic lipsticks from MAC and is often compared to Ruby Woo. This comparison has baffled me since I learned about it because both are totally different shades. Ruby Woo is a blood-red matte, while Russian Red is a maroon-red shade that’s a little bit creamy. In the older version, it was very matte as well
Russian Red Mac lipstick price :
The price of Russian Red MAC Lipstick varies in different parts of the world. In the US and Europe, it still falls under the medium-tier category compared to high-end, Instagram-famous brands (Aicha rolls her eyes). It can be quite amusing considering that many of these brands started their journey with MAC.
However, in other parts of the world, such as India and Pakistan, it belongs to the high-end makeup category due to ridiculous import duties that increase its price. Fortunately, you can bypass this by purchasing from numerous makeup pages on the internet or asking a relative to buy it for you during their travels abroad. These makeup-hating policy makers have zero idea about the potential of makeup.
