I haven't gotten any of the Matte Collection yet. Will probably soon though.I am glad that Mac introduced D for Danger. It is closer to the matte version of Heaux. What do you think?

LOL! Amps are shiny in my experience, and quite creamy, but always more opaque than cremesheens. I don't think the heat is a factor in them appearing shiny.If you look back a couple pages we've been talking about it since yesterday, I know, it's a lot. One swipe and it's not fully opaque like an Amplified would be, but it's not completely see-thru, in this pic you can kind of tell it has a little transparency to it, especially the one on the left and when you look to the top. This is one swipe:

I only have one cremesheen and that's creme d'nude and I just opened it and it's the same pearly finish as this Heaux, there are little glitters.
Omg, I don't know anymore, just swatched my amps and they're pretty shinyIs it the heat? They were sweating.![]()

l-r: Happy-Go-Lucky, Pure Heroine, Make Me Gorgeous and Heaux Pt. Deux
I'm so over this![]()
Yeah I have more I think in just MAC, NYX and Wet n Wild, I haven't added my other lipsticks to my spreadsheet yetI just counted my lipsticks. 103 in just regular lipsticks, mostly MAC. And that's not including OCC liptars and NARS lip pencil colors lol. I couldn't believe it. I really need to slow down! That's since like 2010 at least. Which makes me feel a lil better haha
Yeah but without the retro matte finish it's not the same. Like why name it Heaux? Baffles me. They have lipsticks that are the same color with different finishes and names, they didn't need to go there. If they were bringing back Heaux, they should have brought back the OG, if they couldn't, name it something else imo. It's probably my least fav lipstick from them for the year.You don't think it's the same color?
Thanks!LOL! Amps are shiny in my experience, and quite creamy, but always more opaque than cremesheens. I don't think the heat is a factor in them appearing shiny.
They tend to sweat a lot which is annoying.
Thanks for the your swatches, MMG is lovely on you, as is Heaux!
They should've called it Faux Heaux. But I totally agree, if they can bring back RRB as MLM (but under a different finish) why can't they do the same instead of blaspheming against OG HeauxYeah but without the retro matte finish it's not the same.

I'm guessing that this Heaux has the exact same pigment mix as the original, hence the same name (despite the rest of the formula being different). Other almost-twins probably have slightly different pigment mixes, so even though they look pretty darn similar to us they get different names.They should've called it Faux Heaux.

Why don't you just get d for danger instead of trying to force this one to work.Heaux didn't last all day and I wasn't out long. I'm soooo torn cause i love the color but the formula dries the inside of my lips. I still plan on getting backups because I love the color on me and keep getting compliments when I wear it.
Wait you don't have the OG Heaux? If not, get DfD like Pretty suggested and top with Heaux Pt. Deux. If it's drying the inside of your lips I don't see why you should get backups. Seems like high maintenance to me, but that's just myvery pretty!

Looks fab on you and you look super happy about it!Heaux with no liner
I do have the original version. It's actually drier on me than the new one but I wear lip balm under it and that remedies the problem. I looked at swatches and think I will skip backing up Heaux part 2. I'll get it instead. They look like twins.![]()
