Could you explain this because I need "Lipliner for Dummies." Lol. I have several lipliners and I have no clue what to do with them besides line the perimeter of the lips or fill in my lips and then top with gloss. If I have matching lip liner and lipstick then I will sometimes wear that but that's rare for me. TIA!
Try Cork instead n apply more pencil than lipstick and blend well and if all fails gloss it over! Don't be so easily defeated, u got this

I HATE the new website. I was no fan of the old one. All that black was getting old and tired. So i was looking forward to light and color.

Ugh. Navigating is terrible. The old way you could see all the product names with the little drop down menu and you could see all or most of the swatches at a glance. Now you can see about 6 or so and they're HUGE and the names only display when you click on the swatch, so it takes FOREVER to look over all the, oh, say, lipsticks, or eye shadows.

Plus now i have to open my browser so it fills my screen. Otherwise photos and words and stuff all overlap and are unreadable. I like to work with my browsers only partially open, because i'm doing a bunch of different stuff.

I HATE the new website. I am VERY disappointed.
Yep!

Well I look at makeup as art so let ur artistic juices flow haha... Be creative, if a lipstick is too pale for ur tastes u can always add a bigger rim of liner to tone down the lipstick once it is applied and blended. Liner makes for a more flattering transition for many using light or bright shades. For example many WOC will use Cork or Chestnut liners in varying amounts to line and shade in their lips before applying Naturally Transformed since it is considered pale in comparison to many darker skin tones... Cork, Spice or Mahogany liner will make for a more flattering transition for many WOC using Tropic Tonic due to its bright boldness. I personally feel that Whirl lipstick looks better on me with some definition from a darker/richer liner (Cork) since I have only a slight Cupid's bow, where women with a defined Cupid's bow or fuller lips may not need a liner... Some women like to completely fill in their lips with Nightmoth before applying Rebel or Heroine which creates a totally new color! It's all about personal preference, need and lastly creativity so have fun with it

I placed my preorder at work today. I'm getting Stone, Whirl and Matte Royal. I wish Antique Velvet had some red/burgundy in it. I would be all over that. I wonder if I could get that effect if I wore it with Nightmoth underneath.

I agree. I had high hopes for it, and it's so hard to find anything. It's certainly not mobile friendly.

Just came here to say that Stone looks pretty crazy on me, lol. It doesn't go on very opaque and my natural lip color comes through. I guess I could try a liner, but don't really feel like spending another $16 to try to make it work.
