This is Bengali Satin, Yazmin. I typically prefer matte lipstick formulations but this satin is stunning, looks better on the lips than it does when swatched on the arm and
it wears like a matte to me. It stays in place and it's extremely comfortable. I'm starting to like the satin Louboutin lippies better than the mattes.

OMG my first two have arrived, Rococotte and Survivita. They're BEAUTIFUL. They're both a little deeper than I thought they would be and more matte-looking than I imagined, but I'm happy with all of those things. They are LUXE. I was so impressed. My husband picked me up from volunteering with the boxes in the car, and the black box they come in is lovely. But the most AWESOME thing about them is that they have heft. The gold doesn't feel like cheap paint that will chip off or come off on your fingers (I'm aware it's not gold 
, but as a generally cheap person who likes gaudy jewelry, I'm well versed in the quality differences between various fake gold objects). And the lipstick itself is large and heavy and solid. And the inside of the cap is red, which somehow I hadn't realized, but it so lovely. And I had wanted one of the sheer colors because I thought the tube was so nice-looking, but now that I have the mattes in hand, I'm SOOOOO happy with them. All the video swatches I've watched just couldn't tell me how it FEELS in your hand. I know I'm talking more about the container than the color, but the only way I justified buying 6 90$ lipsticks is that they aren't just lipsticks, they are accessories, like jewelry Now I just need a lovely compact and I can reapply my amazing CL lipstick on date night at the table and look all silver-screen doing it. Even my husband thought they looked fancy and he can't tell a lipstick from a curling iron. Not kidding.
Anyhow, it's dark out here, so I'll wait to post any swatches until tomorrow when I have some natural light. I almost want to wait until the other 4 get here so I can swatch them all together. I know I'm going to end up doing side-by-side swatches and I don't want to use up too much product doing swatches. Although like half of my new-product-enjoyment comes from sharing them on Specktra, not wearing them lol so I guess it's worth it. Oooh I'll swatch them by other similar shades from other brands too. We're like make-up scientists up in here.

It is amazing paired with a nude liner like Chanel's. After wearing it with boldly bare for a few hours it started to turn peachy- not what I wanted. With the Chanel liner that did not happen. I also like tutulle but not as much as just nothing. Are you thinking about ordering belly bloom?

RLS totally blew me away-----it really is a quality product. You will love it!!! I think many of us didn't think the satins would pack the substantial punch that they do.
They really are amazing.
