So we should avoid the mattes? 
I have had no trouble with my mattes. I let mine cool down to room temp before using if they are hot when delivered, but I don't put them in the fridge to cool them down. Keeping my fingers crossed that they don't break with future use.

Girls So I have major issues with Matte lipsticks. They break at the base easily. I made sure the lipsticks were not soft from heat, popped the packages in the fridge and applied using the lighest touch possible but both Rococotte and Bengali broke at the base. I thought Rococotte broke because i dropped it but the same with Bengali even though I was extra careful with it. The satins on the other hand I have no issues with. Tpday was such a BAD day lipstick wise, I have 2 broken BROKENNNNNNN lipsticks now! :unsure:
Oh, I am SOOO sorry to hear this!!! You know, I fully opened them and inspected the bullets. I did notice hairline cracks at the base. It's ridiculous for the price point! The formula is nice but not enough for me to risk breakage...

That is probably the best idea because warm or hot materials/chemicals that cool too quickly can have problems. Think of a glass or mug with hot liquids that shatters when put into a cool environment and vise versa. Source: I do science to things every day.

[COLOR=0000FF]I decided to try on my Rouge Louboutin, satin.  It feels amazing on. I'm glad I tried it before seeing Vee's broken lipstick.  I would have been too afraid to even touch it.[/COLOR]
:eyelove: You are a beautiful lady Meddy!! And the lipstick is gorgeous on you! And such a glowy face!

Oh no!! That should not happen :wtf: Flying and broken lipsticks! A true nightmare Vee! I'm so sorry you underwent this torture! I so hope that if this is a product malfunction combined with the heavy packaging the CL team will take care of it ASAP ! We are not talking about something cheap here! It's 90$ !!!Still if you asked me which is first on my wish list i would say RL matte!Please don't be negative for getting mats again! It might be a problem with shipping! I am really hoping the new ones that you will receive to be totally intact and you will be proud of having them to your stash ! :hug:

That is SOOO pretty on you! I love the looks of the liner too! Is it too light? Thanks so much my dear

I saw the first pics & thought...oh man, she barely has that puppy up out of the tube!

Its such a pretty shade!!
Yesss i barely even twisted it up. But even then it felt wobbly in its base with the pressure of applying on the lips & broke :((( Bad Bad lipstick day!!
The liner is kind of lighter than i thought it would be. I think it would be nice as a base to a nude lipstick but on its own the shade is almost lost on my pigmented lips. It does apply well without any crumbling!!

I cancelled my Rouge Louboutin order *cries*

RL was just SEXY AS F so I couldn't resist but I had to. I just have way too many reds of varying finishes that I seldom use except on special occasions (Chanel Dragon, MAC Ruby Woo, MAC Russian Red, NARS Dragon Girl - tho this leans pink-ish, TF Cherry Lush, TF Crimson Noir is OTW, Guerlain Rouge G Greta, Rouge G Garconne, that Armani one ... and I dunno what else is in that stash lol.

Plus I just ordered WAY too many TF lippies recently.

I will resist for now. "For now" being the operative term, here.

That's how I feel about a lot of these shades...so many are gorgeous colors (that I have something similar to in nice formulas..NARS, TF, CT, etc.!), so even if these are 'better,' I need to work on the ones I have. That's also why I allowed myself a nude even though I desperately want one of the berry/plum-colored ones. I will probably also pick up a sheer RL soon because I do not have anything like it, and it has the prettiest packaging, IMHO.
