Someone, please kill my lemming for Pink Popcorn! Lol. How do you NC40 gals like it? Would it work well on pigmented lips? 
Nudibelle above is selling or swapping her PP if you're looking for it. Overall it's a great lipstick and any skin tone but depending on the person may pull either more pink or lilac from what I've seen. On my lips it's more lilac.
Hey people does anyone know of a good Heroine dupe??? I been wearing a concoction of Magenta l/l, Prestige e/l in Magnetic and MAC Prep and Prime... The color payoff is excellent but obviously its not as creamy as Id like it 2 be... Any suggestions or lipstick dupes???
Inglot lipstick 282 maybe? With the right lip liner?

I have Pink Popcorn and TBH it will be sitting sad among the lippies that do get my love... I applied it again this week but even my husband, who loves about each lippie I own, said he didn't really like the colour. Heroine may not be the easiest shade on my skintone to be flattering, but the shade itself is so gorgeous I will still pick it up and make some effort.

After much thought, I'll pass up on it. I'm sure MAC has other lippies that I'll love in the future.

Now Heroine.... I can't even begin to express how much I love this lipstick! I'm glad I got one after not buying it a day after its release. I went back a week later and thank goodness they had a pack of this lippie unopened! I should've bought a BU, but knowing myself I have yet to finish my first tube of MAC lipstick.

It takes me a while to go through a lipstick too unless I really really like it and wear it daily. I went through about 4 lipsticks that I adored in about 3/4 months time.

Good for you! The money spent on them were worth it in the end, and it's another excuse to go buy more in its place. =D

It's a European brand that has a flagship store in NYC if you live in the area. I'm sure their US site does online ordering too. Overall they are a good brand with decent pricing. Last time I checked they were a teeny bit cheaper than MAC but they also had a slight price increase so they might be just about the same price now. Their eyeshadows and pigments are great. A few members posted swtaches in the By Request thread about 30 pages or so back.. If you do a quick google search for inglorious lipstick 282 and 281 you'll see them. I'm on my iPad so I don't know how to add pictures or links from here.

Inglot is amazing! I love my MAC lippies and these come a close second, I prefer Inglot's shadows though.

281 & 282 are not on the website you have to call a store and they will ship it to you. Not sure what liner would work to make Heroine though.

Good question but I know that Violetta is lighter than Heroine 4 starters as r the 2 Inglot swatches that Richelle posted... I might as well stick with my concoction 4 now lol, hey it has an excellent color payoff... Took some swatch pix, does anyone know how to upload from an android phone???

Which blush and eyelooks do you all combine with Heroine?
Well I dont own Heroine but I can easily dupe the color payoff using Magenta lipliner, Prestige eyeliner in Magnetic and Prep and Prime lip... With my Heroine dupe Ill usually do a muted grey smokey eye, lotsa mascara and a lil Breath of Plum blush... I'm gonna change my avatar so u can see how it looks :)
