Universally flattering, intense, showstopping – these are just a few adjectives that are used to describe MAC’s ultra popular lipstick, ‘Ruby Woo’. Loved by celebrities and makeup artists all around the world, this matte red has a cult following that is unlike any other. However, the lipstick is a tad expensive, which is why we’ve come up with 5 dupes that won’t empty out your pockets. Check them out below!
1. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick In ‘Really Red’
Although we love our ‘Ruby Woo’, the formula can be drying on application. Revlon solves this issue by producing a creamy, bold lip colour. ‘Really Red’ does have some orange in it, but is a close imitation of ‘Ruby Woo’.
2. Lakme 9 To 5 Matte Lip Color In ‘Red Coat’
For matte lips that stay on all day, turn to Lakme! ‘Red Coat’ is one of the best dupes to ‘Ruby Woo’ in terms of colour, but has a softer texture.
3. Wet n Wild MegaLast Lip Color In ‘Stoplight Red’
If you love the true red of ‘Ruby Woo’ but hate the price point, opt for this lipstick! Infinitely more affordable and very hydrating, this product is everything.
4. Maybelline Color Sensational LipColor In ‘Very Cherry’
Maybelline’s pigmented lipstick matches ‘Ruby Woo’ perfectly on the shade front. However, it does have a slight sheen to it which differs from the super matte effect of ‘Ruby Woo’.
5. Bourjois Lip Pencil In ‘Rouge Soyeux’
Even though this product is not a lipstick, the pencil delivers velvety colour which mimics ‘Ruby Woo’. The soft tip makes it easy to blend the colour and allows for precise application.
