Ok, finally breaking down to ask.... how is the formula of the KISSING vs. MATTE Revolution Lipsticks? I have Bitch Perfect from the KISSING set and while I love the color, the formula just seems almost dry and grainy? Are the matte versions better/same? I really want Sexy Sienna but I don't want to spend that much again if the formula is just a disappointment.

Haven't swatched the eyeshadow palettes yet but I got the Dolce Vita and the Rock Chick palettes along with a BU (I know!) of the Filmstar Bronze and Glow (Light)

Received my Magic Foundation today... Thanks SO much to the previous poster who linked swatches of the foundation side by side with Light Wonder... I would've assumed I was #11 when that is actually slightly lighter than #10 in LW. Upon searching #10 in Magic, it seems to be a great match. I will say, out of the bottle, the texture is definitely creamy... Not runny or as viscous as I would've thought. I'll have to see how lightweight the formula is on my face.

Hey. I have Hepburn Honey and I find it highly pigmented and a little bit creamy, but no where near as creamy as Audacious or Bite lipsticks. I got all 10 of the matte revolution, plus the two from the Parkinson's collection because I really love the formula and Spring had a 25% off sale. The MR formula is not as pigmented as Kissing. MR is smooth and light without being sheer. Miss Kensington is patchy and dry but the rest are not like that. Walk of Shame and Bond Girl are very similar, except one is a little warmer (slightly redder)- can't remember which one at the moment. Birkin Brown is a very pretty medium brown that is a great nude that isn't too dark or intense. Very Victoria is also a great nude that is lighter and cooler than Birkin. It's like a dusty pink brown- very pretty and not chalky. Red Carpet Red is the most vibrant in the collection, very beautiful blue red. 1975 comes in second place. Glastonbury is a medium berry shade, lighter than how the bullet appears. Sexy Sienna is a little deeper than Mac's Sushi Kiss- very pretty and looks great on dark skin with the right liner. Lost Cherry is a bright coral shade- very pretty. If I had to eliminate any that were not necessary, they would be Bond Girl, Walk of Shame, and Miss Kensington. My favs are Sexy Sienna, Very Victoria, Glastonbury, Love Liberty, Lost Cherry, Red Carpet Red, & 1975. Lol, that's damn near all of them! I wish she had a nice lilac and a gold in the collection, but I'm happy. :eyelove:

Yes---they're creams and during the shipping process may lean to and then settle to one side or something.

Thank you!! Nicely summarized!! I am really liking the ones I got too!! I find the texture really nice and light weight on the lips!! I haven't had any issues either except with miss Kensington in terms of texture!! There are some packaging issues that they need to work on like the caps being too tight, the lipstick bullets falling out of the cases etc. formula wise I love these too!!

opinion of the nudes----they are so hard to order blindly. I have one CT lipstick and that's Hepburn Honey-----I
purchased it because it was recommended here on the thread and I really like it a lot.

Thanks! I was very fortunate that all of my lipsticks arrived in tact and the caps stayed on all of them. The cap for Hepburn Honey won't stay on so they sent me another one. I wish I knew how to fix Kensington. Maybe a lip primer? I wore Amazing Grace the other day, but I wasn't in love. I paired it with Chestnut. I think it will look nicer with Vino or Beet. I have to play around with it some more to make it work, as well as Bond Girl and WOS. I just love Sexy Sienna though! It is definitely one of the jewels in the collection.

Thank you! I can wear Very Victoria without a liner and it is not too light. It looks very natural. The reason why I'm not as impressed with Bond Girl and WOS is because the colors don't pop on my complexion and they are very similar. I probably only needed one or the other, but I'll try using differs liners to give them some variation. I wanted a brown lippie but I didn't want something dark. Birkin is the perfect brown nude, and would probably be a great nude for darker complexions. I like HH a lot too. I actually wore it today and I got compliments all day. I was feeling foxy because I dyed my hair blue-black yesterday. I was going for that Wonder Woman look, lol. Thank goodness the blue didn't come out as bright as I wanted because today I remembered I am a grown woman, lol! :wiggle:
Bond Girl and Walk of Shame are similar on me, too, except WOS leans more pink on me while BG leans more berry.Thank you! I can wear Very Victoria without a liner and it is not too light.

Berkin Brown is a darker nude than I would have liked but I'll still use it. Very Victoria barely shows up in a hand swatch and is light on the lips, but if I apply it over BB, it gets me closer to the type of nude shade I want, and one where I don't have to wear a liner if didn't want to.
