Has anyone seen/tried these colors?  Anyone buying these?  They are saying these are their 3 best selling colors. MAC counter lady at my local department store told me Ruby Woo and Russian Red are their best sellers.  They were out of Ruby Woo and I asked what was next best and she told me Russian Red was their #2 seller and Ruby Woo #1.  I guess my local people are behind on the new best sellers.

Your sales lady is pretty much spot on.  Ruby Woo is a HUGE selling MAC lippie.  It's a cool (blue based red) and considered a color that looks good on everyone.  I don't know about the other color.

 

Ruby Woo and MAKE ME MERCURIAL (the Lipglass I'm buying on eBay)

I'm not a lipSTICK person.  I only wear glosses and tints.

@monicakm  Thank you for your response.  I do like my Ruby Woo.  I am also pleased with Russian Red, if you wish to try another variation but very similar color.

Those are the 2 top sellers world wide. Remember they are sold in Asian countries where there are billions of beautiful women that look stunning in red shades. I believe they are talking about top sellers stateside. World wide would definitely be red,top seller.

i ordered these and I can’t wait to try them. They have already been shipped! Have a great day!

@Nonametoday I have been wearing Mac for a long time & I have had all of these colors from both sets on auto delivery.

The only one that didn't really work for me was the Cork lip liner. It is wearable, but a little too warm for me. 

I layer so much stuff that nothing ends up what color it started anyway!

Ruby Woo & Russian Red are both awesome reds!

@Dusty1 

When I saw that cork, I wondered how that would be.  I was thinking it might not make much of a line of color.  I think I will stick to the store to buy my MAC products.  I can see them and sort of know what they are like.  I would buy from QVC if I felt comfortable with the colors but just not sure about this selection.  Thank you for your response.

I think the MAC MAKE ME MERCURIAL is the same shade as Ruby Woo only in their lipglass formula.  I'm not a lipstick gal.  Glosses and tints for me.

@monicakm   I need to try the lipglass.  I use matte but it wears off at a luncheon no matter what you do and it is easier to reapply glass/gloss in a rushed-up bathroom visit than a matte as mattes are easier to smear.
