Oh - Vino - love that liner!
So far choices are Magenta, Vino.
Not Nightmoth - oh what about Currant? Too dark. Embrace Me? Portside, Plum?

Magenta would definitely make it darker with a different hue. Embrace Me would basically keep it the same color.

I would experiment. But generally, I think purple, brown and dark pink liners are good to tone down bright pink lipsticks. I guess the darker the liner, the more you're going to alter the original shade.

Currant would be good too but I'm not sure idk if i own that one.
Nightmouth would be pretty i guess if you wanted to tone it down super.

From Live Journal!!
So I just got home to find a lovely little black box sitting on my porch that I thought would have my candy yum yum in it.
I rush inside to open it up -- and it's empty!! Just the receipt and the black tissue paper. No lipstick!!! I almost flew into a rage
thinking that if I called them the best they could do was just offer me a refund considering it's 'sold out'.. When i called up Mac customer
service to alert them to their little error, the girl profusely apologized and then told me she would be sending me another one. I asked her
how is that possible considering it's completely sold out on the website and they said they would not be restocking. She said they still have
plenty more, even though they won't be restocking. I really don't get it. I'm glad they are able to send me one, but why are they not restocking
if they have "plenty more?"
This is ridiculous!

Should I apply a liner with CYY as if it was a red lipstick, meaning I would color most of my lips with the liner and place the lipstick lightly on top?

Wow, that's crazy. I should be getting home to my black box in a few hours, and I hope something similar doesn't happen. I think they are going to restock, they're just trying to drive up the hype more. Maybe they'll get some more sales for the remaining By Request items if they pretend to be sold out.

Honestly, I'm glad they have backups because that means if anyone's shipment is off, they can replace them for you. Though, I do think they're going to restock, they did so many times for Iris.

worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd!!! i just checked swatches of barry m #52 shocking pink. not only is it less $, but it's *brighter* and *more neon* than original cyy. off to asos...
i might buy the three lippies if the restock actually occurs. i still have a rocker from back in the day, and would like a fresh one-but i'm not keen on paying multiple shipping fees so i'll give a week or so.

I'm guessing they have holdovers for situations like these. Or if they happen to send the wrong lipstick to the customer they can make up for it. But yeah, if they have 'plenty' more do another restock then.
Thing is though, how do they know if the customer is telling the truth?

But see that's the thing here, another member didn't get her CYY and they refunded her the money, yet this one will get one. What sense does that make?!

I am sooo disappointed with CYY 
. It is waaay to matte for me. It make my lips look chalky, and it settles into every line on my lips. The one positive is the stain that it leaves on my lips once I wipe it off. It actually leaves a pretty dark reddish pink color. I pop some lipgloss right on top of that and go
