It does look different on you, still pretty!! and i was just thinking that lipsticks looks different on everyone so buying online is always a tricky option when website swatches are edited. I added about 2 coats of it to get it to my shade but it showed up really dark red on me which is exactly what i wanted haha i love really dark vampy reds an this is my new holy grail lipstick for that haha. I used a dior eye lining brush to clean up my edges and make it look even because this could go horribly wrong if you don't concentrate haha.
Horribly wrong is right! LOL I actually went back around the bottom of my lips with the TF corrector pen to even out the line but I think I'm going to either try it with a lip primer or get a lip liner next time just to make sure it doesn't bleed. I'm glad it looks like the deep red you wanted...actually I was pleasantly surprised that some of the purple tone was showing up on me so I guess we both got what we wanted!

Great thanks for letting me know, the texture, feel and look of these is beyond any matte lipstick i have ever tried. truly one of the best and no patchy colour which most dark mattes suffer from, Id gladly buy them all but there are a lot of shades that i would never wear so black dahlia and pussy cat are the only shades iv been interested in.

Pussycat looks to be a nude shade on my lip colour so i could wear it every day and black dahlia is beautiful on both pale and dark skins. i also got another mini lipstick with my purchase (i had to ask haha but i really wanted another), i now have 2 cherry lush and 1 indian rose mini lipstick's :).
I'm glad you asked for the mini. They were supposed to give them automatically. I got a True Coral mini. Would you pay $32 for a TF mini? I wouldn't

Its a beautiful color ft but I feel like its drier then the others I have idk maybe its just me my lips have been super dry lately and with mattes I kinda don't like to use a lip balm I want it to stay matte and I wish the color had a tad bit more peachy color in it I'm loving that everybody is loving ft for me its didnt work but I'm okay as I have the others that I love love
I understand ATG. I use a lip balm and put it on just before I start my makeup and I blot it before I put my lipstick on to help maintain the integrity of the finish---especially
mattes.

I'm not much of a blue nail polish girl! Though Mica Rose looks so pretty. I haven't pulled the trigger yet. Money is a little tight since I've got a nice sephora haul waiting for me on the VIB sale. :) Depending if I return anything from my haul (some things I don't have in store to swatch pre-buy) I might pick up MR.
I have a real soft spot for pink nail polish

I'm glad I'm not the only one with a loaded online cart---for the VIBR sale. I wouldn't be caught dead at the onsite event but I'm having a ball online.

Oh yes, I have been saving a bunch of perm items for the VIBR sale! What's in your cart so far? :)

BD looks so beautiful on everyone!!! So I actually returned Pussycat today (I preferred my Nars Anna) and ended up leaving the counter with both pink dusk and spanish pink. Loooove them both! I think I may be slightly hooked on TF. Good for my makeup collection....bad on my wallet lol. Is there a non pink TF nude that you would recommend? Also, I asked about the 50 shades that are supposedly getting released on dec 26th and the SAs at the counter confirmed it also!

I need skin care items so that's primarily what I'm going for. The one makeup item that I have in my cart is Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat’ Radiant Touch, which I love
but waited until this sale to repurchase it. I have purchased so much makeup recently from the holiday collections that I really don't need (said tongue in cheek-like) any
makeup.

Oh you've been bitten! I love your final choices! I think it depends on the type of nude that you're looking for. It's too bad you didn't check them out at the counter. Nudes
can be so specific to your coloring & preferences, and are definitely hard to determine on line. TF does have a couple of beige--nudes in the permanent line.

Very true! I'll do that next time! And the VIBR sale...I will "need" to stock up on skincare as well...and hair stuff. Perhaps I "need" a few more lippies added to the cart too lol lol!

I have purchased a lot lately, too. But I'm picking up face wash, more foundation and concealer (luckily about to run out just in time for sale!) also a couple of diorshow fusion monos, I fell in love with mirror and want to try out more. Also a ysl blush and a nars e/s. :) it's gonna be a great haul!

I may pick up another Nars Audacious lippie...and maybe a Rouge G (I haven't tried any in this line!).
I definitely want to pick up the agave hair oil...love it!
Can't have too many pretty lipsticks right? You will LOVE Rouge G. The formula is amazing and there are some
wonderful colors to suit all tastes.

Couldn't agree more Lauren! Do you have some R-G favs?
Yeees, I love love love Gemma and Grenade. Gemma was my first RG because I knew it was a shade I could wear every day. Most of time time is spent in class, so I sometimes feel funny with a bright red lip when everyone else looks like they're fresh from the gym or bed. So I went with a pretty pink-ish shade, and I love the little bit of gold in it. Gives it wonderful depth!
