Divya Khosla Kumar, Actor, Director, and Producer
"There are hundreds of amazing red lipsticks out there, but my go-to red lippie is Ruby Woo by M.A.C. I love this shade in all its glory and wear it often. While I like the matte finish, sometimes I swipe on clear gloss on top for a hint of shine!"

Elli AvrRam, Actor
"I like happy, bright reds. And I found my favourite in M.A.C’s Russian Red. This shade has an intense cherry tint that looks absolutely beautiful."

Saiee M Manjrekar, Actor
"A lot of people used to tell me dark shades don’t look good on me and I should not wear them because I’m young. But I wore Chatterbox by M.A.C one day and everyone loved it on me! This lipstick helped me rock many a dark shade after I tried it on..."

Shirley Setia, Actor
"The one shade that I feel is the perfect red for my skin tone is Ruby Woo by M.A.C. It stays put for hours, thanks to its matte texture. And when I want to change things up, I layer it over my lip balm for a matte-but-creamy finish."

Shamita Shetty, Actor
"I have a looot of red lipsticks, but my current favourite is M.A.C’s Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolor in Feel So Grand. If you have on this lipstick, you don’t need anything else. It looks so glamorous, and lasts all day long!"

Daisy Shah, Actor
"I love, love, love the Cruella by NARS. As they say every red is made for an individual, and I happened to have found mine in this velvet matte crayon. While most reds have a strong quality to them, this one looks delicate."

Maanvi Gagroo, Actor
"M.A.C’s Lady Danger is my go-to red lipstick as it’s matte, super long-lasting, and it just doesn’t bleed—a quality I look for in all my lipsticks. Also, it’s a cool shade of red, which really suits my skin tone."
- 8/9
Sonal Chauhan, Actor
"I came across Ruby Woo by M.A.C while shooting, and at first, I was quite reluctant to try it on as I am a total pastel person. But then my make-up artist convinced me and I have never looked back since. Though it’s matte, it feels velvety on the lips. Plus, every time I wear it, I get a tonne of compliments!"

Amyra Dastur, Actor
"I am wearing M.A.C Matte Lipstick in Lady Danger, and I absolutely love this bright flaming red. I don’t like reds that veer into the ‘dark’ territory—like a maroon tone. One swipe is all it takes this shade to instantly brighten up my face!"
