Which is your favorite and why?

I can't decide which one to buy seeing as how they are both very similar.

I would love to see how it looks on you, post a pic :)

Thanks!

I love ruby woo. It's best to condition your lips before applying but Russian red is pretty too. But ruby woo over all

My fave is Ruby Woo. It's matte and IMO it's the "perfect" red. I hear Russian Red is almost identical. Try swatching them side by side and compare texture.

they're quite different considering they're both red.

Ruby woo has more of a blue undertone to it, while Russian Red has more of a warm undertone to it. Ruby woo is a matte, while russian red has some shine to it.

It's ultimately going to come down to preference in texture for you, but for me personally, i love ruby woo. Because it's matte, it gives this lovely sophisticated look :)

I personally like Ruby Woo best because of the matte look, which makes it a lot more versatile. you can either have the matte look, or apply a gloss for a bit of sheen. Dress it up or dress it down, it's all over the perfect red.
