I like the color, but not the price

I love the concept. Ideally they would continue to donate money past the 500 mark, but understandly they have a bottom line to look after as well. I think simply drawing attention to the cause and encouraging young people to vote is in and of itself a worth cause. I'm dismayed at some of the negative comments about the charity though. Sure, there might be "better" charities, but I like that a cosmetic company is socially active and working proactively to get its customers involved in the election process. The past 8 years may have been a lot different if more young people "rocked the vote".

I don't wear red lipstick and I can think of better charities to support.

I think they have a good concept. However, I don't feel it was executed correctly. Why do donations stop after sales of 500? I love how Philosophy does shower gels for a cause. If Philosophy can, I don't see why other brands can't follow suite. My fave red, however, is actually a stain. I love the Nars dual ended stain/gloss in Indian Red and Moon Fleet. Indian Red is beautiful and stays all day. Moon Fleet is my ABSOLUTE favorite gold gloss. Together they're amazing.

That looks like a fabulous shade of red lipstick! It reminds me of Clinique's Angel Red shade, which is my favorite.

I already have loads of red...my current favourite is still Chanel's "Bus Stop Red" though lately I have been wearing more lip stains and less lipstick, per se. I'm kinda over Stila.

No, I rarely wear red lipstick and I already have one.

While I support the thought behind the cause, I don't do red lipstick...

I like the color, but if you read the fine print, very little of the money is actually going to Rock the Vote. Only 25% of the first 500 lippies sold are going to be donated. While I like the idea (and I support Rock the Vote) and I like the color, I probably won't buy it because I couldn't be sure that my money was actually going to go to the charity.
