The colour will be tweaked a bit as well. RiRi Boy isn't a matte UTA, it's a matte colour INSPIRED BY UTA.

Excellent news! It looks too pretty to pass up! Maybe not pee-on-myself worthy, but pretty close

I don't recall RiRi Boy and Heaux being on the color story that's been floating around. Is it safe to say there will be more surprises? I mean, it is Rihanna after all...

NARS Dragon Girl on the left; RRW on the right, in natural light:


DG on the left; RRW on the right, in the shade with flash:



DG on the top, RRW on the bottom, in crappy bathroom lighting:



RRW on the left side; Dragon Girl on the right, in crappy bathroom lighting, no liner, and filled with shame for putting this on Specktra as soon as I woke up (sorry for the skin)!



RiRi Woo is soooo weird to me. I've never used the retro matte formula and mine tugs on the lips and sort of balls up on the lipstick itself; is this normal?! I mean, I'll need a lip brush, liner, and patience to put it on and it does stay put, but man, I am not used to this. The undertones are different on both; Dragon Girl looks like fuchsia and red made a baby and RRW looks more true red in comparison. I have both smudged on my hand from trying to wash the swatches off and it is most obvious now. Dragon Girl is very bright on me IRL and always pulls out more of the purple tones in my lips.

Yeah, so, I hope this helps. I don't have very many other reds. I have Absolute Power, VG I, and Lady Danger. Oh, and I'm NC40.

Confirms I want to stick with Dragon Girl. I actually like the fuchsia undertones. Let's be real, i will probably get RRW when it resurfaces but I ain't paying evilbay pricing. TY for swatching those, they look VERY similar on the monitor...

I had a slight tugging, but no issues with it balling up.

So in my rush to order RiRi Woo I accidentally sent it to my brother's house (where I was sending everything before I moved). Finally found some time to drive down there and pick up RiRi. Sorry for the lame picture, I was just so excited to get it. I put it on right after I put on my PJs. The SO was actually impressed, and he usually rolls his eyes at makeup related things.
