MAC Lipglass in Red Romp

I didn't think I could wear true red on my lips until I found this. (I'm not wearing any other makeup in this shot, hence the tired look of everything but my mouth.) MAC says that it's a mid-level red with some frost, but all I see is a slick red that doesn't age me or steer me into horrid goth territory.

This was, btw, a PR freebie. It came as part of a mailing of products from the new MAC Antiquitease range, which I must say has some of the most beautiful and ornate packaging I've ever seen. The compacts (get a glimpse here) of lip color and eyeshadow were made to be coveted. They'd make great stocking stuffers or small, inexpensive gifts to exchange with friends (says she who cannot ever gift people with cosmetics or skincare or hair products anymore, lest they think she cheaped out and is passing off freebies as personally selected presents).
