I'm not surprised by the pigmentation in these. They are stained lip glosses. But it needs to pointed out that it looks like Christine didn't layer to build pigmentation (which if you don't do then none of the stained glosses have strong pigmentation). So it just depends on what you're looking for. If you wanted lip tar pigmentation then the stained glosses are a pass anyway.

Yes, I know.But this is really very sheer....even for a stained gloss :dunno: So I am with Erine....and will only get the 4 lip tars!

Her application of Dekadent seems extra light to me. Seems spotty and I don't want to say on purpose but it seems like it could be applied a little differently. Dekadent reminds me of Revenge is Sweet by MAC and a Flirt color called Berry Bombshell as far as shade range. Anyway, I live for colors like this because I have pigmented lips and the peachy pink color of my lips blends so well with the violet. I also think this color will be great with their Hootchie and Belladonna, even Black Dahlia and Lydia Mein Herr will amp up a nude lipstick as well. Colors like these are the icing on the cake; at least that's how I see it.

Definitely skipping Dekadent. She obviously put it on extra light especially after looking at the pic Erine posted with the whole collection. Not to mention we've seen other swatches of the stained glosses that don't look like a miniscule drop of color with mostly petroleum jelly lol.

Exactly! I think she sometimes does a disservice at showing products when she applies it in a manner that gives a false idea of what it really looks if using a "normal" amount. Some pics she uses a lot of product...others it looks like she didn't use enough. Not to say that the stained glosses are ever as pigmented as the regular ones but putting it one extra thin doesn't help either. It's like when you see people review regular lip tars but obviously used a ton of it but implies that they only used a tiny drop.

I guess because I'm used to applying the stained glosses very sheer for the first layer and then applying a 2nd layer after a few minutes that I'm used to what I'm seeing in T's review pics. I wish the darker color was a lip tar instead (especially for a Fall color) but I can envision so many layering looks with it lol.

I just saw Ts review of two of he newcomers and I ha e to agree with those that said she used a light touch. she seems to do that alot either uses too much or too little! I still like her site n everything but I'm glad I found Specktra! hope she does the rest soon so I can decide on what ima get ;)

According to an email I received from OCC, Fragmented Alice is a collection that will be coming out. Fragmented may or may not be in that collection.

Really now? That excites and frustrates me, considering there's already so many fall-winter collection items on my wishlist. x___x If even half of them are nearly as unique as Fragmented, then I'll be doomed.
