looks like a bruise...I find it off-putting too, to be honest. Also the particular colour combined with the name...
Apart from that, I like the blue.

I've decided to try the KVD liquid lipsticks one more time. I'm gonna snag one in Lolita.

Yeah I just don't think it's in good taste, whatever reason he gives for the name

Agreed. He had to have known that it would be controversial and his folks decided to launch it nonetheless. That tells me they don't care.

I concur.

Fingers crossed that you will love it this time. I love them. They dry much faster than many of the other liquid matte lipsticks. That's one of the reasons I love them.

Wow! I'm speechless. His explanation has not changed my mind at all. It's in poor taste. :down:He notes: "this is the darkest purple-based blue I could create without it being too dark.Abused has dimension and depth, like gothic rosesinspired by my love for 90's music, I'll never forget hearing@MarilynManson 's cover of "Sweet Dreams" where he sings "some of them want to use you... some of them want to be abused.." and seeing him for the first time in concert with Nine Inch Nails was so amazing as a kid. Art is supposed to make you THINK. We ALL abuse something... Whether it's power, love, money or glamour... Just don't let it control you" end quote

I agree I think it can be very triggering. Yes at the end of the day it's JUST lipstick but a bruise coloured lipstick that's called abused seems like it's glorifying violence-at least in my opinion
Reminds me of the whole scandal with KVD around Celebutard and more recently Underage Red. I understand the need for a unique name, but makeup is supposed to be fun and happy, not disrespectful or depressing!Wow! I'm speechless. His explanation has not changed my mind at all. It's in poor taste.

Agreed! I didn't find Underage Red suggestive but I do agree with the idea that celebutard is offensive

gah! I missed out on some the LA Splash lip mousse tints. I wanted Nymph Adora and Love Good. Anybody know where I could possibly find those?
P.S. those new Stila summer shades are calling my name

Yesss I need those Stila ones. I'm waiting for my drugstore to carry them so I can either get points for them or use points to get them. Have to wait until June though

Another question: Can anyone verify whether LA Splash's Lip Tint Mousse in Bellatrix is a dupe for Coloured Raine's Raine Fever? CR has gotten on my LAST nerve with their inventory issues. It makes no sense that you have to wait months at a time to order product and its the same song and dance every time. *mini rant* lol.
Thanks in advance!
