That’s MAC Matte Lipstick in hazardous ($16), available now online and at MAC stores and counters in the MAC permanent collection
From whence, I wonder, does red lipstick derive its magical power? That’s what I’d like to know. It’s the rainbow pegasus of lipsticks, and whenever I wear it, I feel like a magically imbued, larger-than-life version of myself.

Like, if I were flying off into the sunset on the back of a gigantic dragon, a la Daenerys Targaryen in game of Thrones, I would not be wearing pink lipstick, or coral lipstick or — gasp! — a nude gloss.

HELL NO. I would absolutely be wearing something red.

As a kid growing up in the east Bay suburbs (which wasn’t exactly a high-fashion hot spot), I didn’t have much direct contact with red lipstick. My mommy was/is a lot more of a Chapstick gal, so the closest I ever got to red lipstick was when I saw it on the models in the pages of the fashion magazines at the dentist’s office.

I didn’t know anything about makeup at the time, but I did know that I wanted what those ladies had on their lips.

And I wanted it badly.

And now, even after all these years, I still love red lipstick, and I have a drawer filled with them — blue-based reds, creamy reds, neutral reds, glossy reds — enough to satisfy my every red lipstick craving.

One of those cravings that never stays away long are matte reds. like a 1940s screen siren, they’re timeless and beautiful, and I love how they can look sophisticated and bad-@ss at the same time.

My current crush/matte red in rotation is MAC’s new warm orangey red Matte Lipstick in Dangerous. It makes me feel like I’m in charge and runnin’ sh*t, you know? like when people hear my heels click-clacking down the hallway, they get a little scared.

Dangerous is one of the new $16 Matte Lipstick shades recently added to the MAC permanent line, and you can find it now (and hopefully eternally) online and at MAC stores and counters.

PRICE: $16
AVAILABILITY: Permanent, available now at MAC counters, stores and online

Speaking of game of Thrones…

**SPOILER ALERT**
**SPOILER ALERT**
**SPOILER ALERT**
(I’m serious! — don’t read any additionally unless you’re ok talking about the last episode.)

I still haven’t recovered from the got season finale.

All I have to say is…poor Jon Snow. I can’t even deal with it!

Honestly, I don’t even know why I keep enjoying the show. It’s downright cruel. whenever something unavoidably dreadful happens to one of the Starks, I want to eat a jar of Nutella with my fingers.

Seriously, something good has to happen to one of them someday, right? just ONE STARK. That’s all I ask!
