It looks like it's too late to place an order for this, but for those still curious-it's not a red! It's actually a medium-light pink, very cool toned (almost a little lavender against my warm skin) with a slight silvery sheen. Not at all what I expected from the name!

ETA It's also somewhat sheer. I suspect this could be a mlbb shade on some of you cool toned, fair girls.

I love it! Light silvery pink. Almost reminds me of a mac viva glam v lipstick I had years ago!

Thanks so much for the descriptions! I would really love to hear Karen's explanation of this one, if anyone would be willing to post it when the next MAC arrives.

As a cool toned fair lady, YES, I really like this color! I've worn it everyday since I received my order, and I'm looking forward to receiving a backup in my last MAC package (I really, really hope they continue the MAC program!! :shock: )

I can upload some swatchy pics after work if anyone wants.

Sorry it took so long! I got caught up at work. :(

I have it swatched side by side with Strawberry Fields, and also a lipcolor-free pic just to get a good comparison.

And my order came today! Freedom is GORGEOUS. I will be thrilled to get a backup of this in the MAC, and even though I have never finished anything makeup, I'm still glad! It probably needs to be permanent.
