Don't believe everything you read or hear, pick the lippies you want most and be prepared. All of the lipsticks in the retro matte collection were supposed to be permanent according to the official color story, then Mac decided to change that at the last minute and 3 (I believe) ended up being LE. It was so confusing that people ended up getting confusing stories from MA's who weren't well informed right up to the release in store. I really do hope they are all perm, it would be a shame if they weren't...especially the royal blue lippie.
