To me, beauty and makeup and color is like the finishing touch on everything.

MAC Cosmetics (http://www.maccosmetics.com/index.tmpl) - All Fired Up (Retro Matte)
All Fired Up is a "bright fuchsia with a retro matte finish.
This is a reddish-fuschia color that is a bit warmer due to the lack of blue undertones. Personally, I really enjoy wearing this lipstick because it's super girly and bright. Although it is not fluorescent, it tends not to be an everyday color for most people. In this case, if you do wish to wear this color more often, the best way to do so would be applying it in a soft dabbing motion on the lips instead of directly rubbing the product on. Even adding a little gloss on top can add more dimension. I do like how it is retro matte but at the same time it does dry out my lips which sometimes I think draws people away from wearing any kind of retro matte lipstick in general.
It is also a retro matte so this will be even more matte and drying than your typical matte finish from MAC. I needed to heavily moisturize my lips before applying or this lipstick will dry out my lips and cling to dry skin. But you have to make sure to rub your lip balm into your lips and make sure you do not have too much on or the color will not transfer properly. You will get a good 8 hours of wear out of this lipstick and it will leave a light stain of color if not taken off with makeup remover.
