I hope they give a time too. The last time it was 12pm PST. All of the swatches that I've seen OF Black Rose look like a dark burgundy red. I would love to see the swatch you are referring too. I may make me change my mind.GOOD idea. I will be picking up one this week. I hope they give a launch time, too! I was Kiss of Fire and Berry Me 2! I wanted Black Rose, but a swatch on instagram made it look more brown undertone than red. Hmmm. Not sure what to do!
I will try to find it for you again!
It's pretty but I feel like I have something like it.@Vandekamp Hmm, maybe it's my monitor. These swatches look a little more brown to me. It just doesn't look as red as the promo pic. I mean, as we all know, promo pics are definitely not something to go by... but I think it's just not as I was picturing. I was hoping for a more deep dark vampy reddish shade.
I got one of the ABH lippies (that I hated) and it's basically in this shade. Not only was the formula bleh but I strongly disliked the color on me. So I'll probably be passing on this one!
I do see what you mean. The top picture does look a bit more brown. In fact it looks a bit like Lime Crime's Wicked or Pretty Zombie's Dahlia. I do think that the lighting is off on this picture though.@Vandekamp Hmm, maybe it's my monitor. These swatches look a little more brown to me. It just doesn't look as red as the promo pic.

Yeah, the lighting could be off, definitely! There's only one way to know 100% for sure and that's in person. I still think it might be a bit too vampy for me, be it more brown or red! That's okay, some money saved. I'll get a different matte lippie instead.

I haven't I wanted to order some and after trying these I think I'm gonna place another order for some .. I got them off the website Bejour.com
I knew that website was sketch. I'm so happy I didn't place an order.
I found the mattes in the local beauty supply store (not Sally's, one of the Korean owned ones in Brooklyn)...the display even had testers for all the shades! I'm def going to check out that site for the liquid ones if I can't find the display! Thank you!
Sigh. My FB and IG have both notified me that people from over seas have been trying to log in... They both have the same username as my LA Splash account. Colour Pop too as a matter of fact. Luckily the passwords are different! I went and changed all my passwords and (usernames if possible) to all my important accounts after that.
Yes they posted on IG, it was due to the fact they ran out of lip couture packagaing
No problem! I'm in brooklyn too! The website shipped super fast I placed my order 2 weeks ago on a Monday recieved my items by Friday
Ah I see, thanks, Dolly! I don't mind as long as it's the same lip color and formula.
I have to get Jasmine and Alice ... just waiting on my paycheck!!!!Got my order today! Was able to do some super quick swatches before I have to run off to give a presentation.
Initial reaction: LOVE these! Jasmin is out of this world beautiful. Perfectly opaque in one swipe, and is more dimensional in person than in the photo. It doesn't have chunky glitter like Nala, Duchess, or Evil Queen. I totally see what that one IG user said by "rub to activate glitter" Once they were dry, I swipes my finger over the swatches to see how "smudge proof" they really were. After doing this, the gold glitter in Nala became visible (I didn't know it had glitter by looking in the tube) and so did Evil Queen and Duchess!
Alice and Jasmin don't have glitter but they have a sheen to them. Very pretty. Don't mind the patchy Alice swatch. It's totally opaque, I just knocked my arm on the windowsill before it set... oops!
However, Duchess and Evil Queen are more watery/thin based on my arm swatch. They'll probably take two coats to be fully opaque.
I love them all, though I don't know if I'll be purchasing from La Splash again. Too many cons to their website, slow shipping, and not to mention possible hacking into my information!!! AND I used Pay pal! Definitely not as secure as one would think.
Anyway... on to the swatches! I can't wait to test these out for wear. They took FOREVER to get off my arm. Once they set, I tried to wash them off with hot water and soap. Nope. Didn't even budge or smear. I took a hand towel and SCRUBBED my arm. Nothing. It took two makeup wipes and the makeup remover oil I got for free from them for buying 5. PS, my arm is still tinged pink!
Also, does anyone else think it's weird they don't come in boxes!? I got them in a bubble mailer today and actually was a little shocked.
^ L-to-R: Nala, Alice, Duchess, Evil Queen, Jasmin.
T-to-B: Nala, Jasmin, Alice, Duchess, Evil Queen.
