I've always considered Ruby Woo the "pin-up calendar girl" red.  It's a beauty!

It's not orange. It's blue based and bright and very very matte. Like ChosenOne says it's the "pin-up calender girl" red. It's awesome and everyone that loves reds needs it!

Stuff like that makes lipsticks too slippery for my taste, but hey if it works for you great!

Knope, you will love Ruby Woo! It is Holy Grail for me.

I know some people find it very drying, but as long as I used prep + prime and a lipliner underneath I can handle it and the effect is to die for!

Me too!!! Retro matte is my absolute favorite formula! I really wish they made more of these.

Double if it was a Sophia collection with her and Monica Bellucci in the print ads. I weep at the thought.

I would absolutely flip if there was a Sophia Loren collection. I'm with you on buying everything!

well they did do a second collection with Marcel Wanders, does that count?

Unless there's anything particularly unique in this next MM collection, I'm going to have to pass. I really hope there is something great though, since I love retro-inspired goodies.

This is the BEST!

I wish they would make an 'original Marilyn' collection = a redhead collection.

If it's the same: a happy skip!

MM was one of my favorite collex from last year.

I b/up all of the lippies and Showgirl and Prefered Blonde e/s.

Sad to say, I haven't been impressed with any of the collections since then.

I do so much love the MM eyeshadows too, Fiberluver!

I know that many people skipped them but I am glad that I got all of them

I do also use my Legendary a lot.It is a gorgeous blush!

And FM, of course....it gets soooooooooo much love.YAY for BUs!!!!

I wouldn't mind a Sophia Loren, Bridgette Bardot, Dorothy Dandridge, Elizabeth Taylor, Veronica Lake or even a Lucille Ball collection. Lucille Ball is known to be the funniest woman on tv, but she was a high fashion model before that and since people say she's my doppelganger I'll be all over that collection.

Not excited for this one. I thought the packaging of the last collection looked cheap and very uninspired, it was a huge turn-off for me. Chanel did so much better, imho.
