It looks more purple than blue in this swatch. Is that what it looks like in person.
Hi Middy yes it's definitely purple with extremely strong indigo undertones, on my lips but when I wiped it off it's definitely navy/indigo on paper towel... Weird but I love it

I have black is blue...but it stayed satiny, it never "set" into a matte. I should try it again and blot it down with some powder.
Mine was satiny at first application then after about an hour or so the satin finish dulled itself down a bit, coulda just been my dry lips sucking out the moisture haha

It's probably one of those colours that look different depending on skintone. I also have BiB and I can't see any purple. On me it's a dark, muted navy. It's a gorgeous colour, and the quality is great.

You are right. The tone of your lips can definitely determine how some shades will look on you.

I've also noticed it looks different in different lighting too... On paper towel I swear it's pure navy but on the lips it can be purple/navy/indigo...

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. So far I only wore BiB at daytime so maybe it'll look more purple on me under artificial lighting.

Here's an old mugshot of yours truly wearing BiB:

Yup. I guess I'm lucky because more often than not, what I see in the tube is pretty much what I get on my lips. I sometimes have corals turn pink a few hours into wear though. Weird,

Definitely navy on you!! I like it. I can see with a silver and grey/black smokey eye!
