I knew mine would come a day early. However, thanks to the snow plows and the 10" of snow that came yesterday, our mailbox is blocked, so mail can't be delivered. So it looks like I'll have to wait til tomorrow anyway.

Mine were delivered today but I'm not home to check them out :mad: I'm just cranky because I haven't slept in 24+ hours and I don't know when I will finally get a chance to. Yet sadly, I'm more irritated that I can't play with my lippies yet lol.

It'll be pretty dark by the time I get home too, I usually have about 15 minutes or so of light left. I'm still going to try them on as soon as I hit the house though. lol

Came home to Blow and Bane!! Of course I had to try them on immediately! They're definitely super matte. It's not the kind of lipstick you can haphazardly apply and just rub your lips together to spread the color around. Like with DGAF, the innermost part of my lips requires a little extra care to make sure the color goes there and stays there (don't want that awkward line of flesh color between the top and bottom lip, kwim?), but the opacity is wonderful. And even though they're very matte, they look almost velvety on the lips. I would definitely use a lip liner with these though.

Bane is just a true black, so not any surprises there. Blow is a bit brighter than I expected (definitely looks brighter than Tealo, but I would have to do a side by side to be sure), but I'm okay with that! It's still an amazingly gorgeous and unique color. Definitely my favorite they've come out with so far!!

Can't wait to hear everyone else's reports!!

I ordered 6six6, DGAF and Bane.

6six6. It's dark red... almost too dark. Strange, since I kept hearing how light they are compared to the promo colors. I wonder if they tweaked the colors? Or maybe my lips are randomly dark.

DGAF and Bane had about the same feel. They were both very stiff when I started applying but got a bit more creamy once I used up the outermost layer of the lippie. I feel like DGAF applies slightly patchy on me. The blue's not really flattering on me either. I'm not in love with it. I liked how it looked with lighter red lipstick on top though so I'm planning to keep it still.

On that note, I love Bane. It's very matte. I thought I saw a sheen at first but definitely dries matte. The lipstick feels comfortable. The only complaint I have is that since the lipstick is so pigmented, it's a pain to apply since if you're slightly off your lip line, it's a hassle to remove it. Applying lipstick out of the tube isn't the most precise application so yeah. I'm afraid using a lip brush will kill the pigmentation though. :( I'm not quite sure what would be the best way to apply it.

I went with Bane instead of Lime Crime velveteen because velveteens are liquids. Bacteria has an easier time growing where there is moisture and I was sure I wasn't going to go through the tube in a couple of months.

I kind of want to try out Blow. Hmm....
