I went to the in-store launch on friday and suprisingly all I got was WMS. I skipped it in shop cook cos orange is a bit scary for a redhead, but this is really pretty.
I tried on every lippy, and this one looked the least rubbish (I felt a little pressure to purchase
my favourite MUA was working on another girl), but I'm thinking the MUA who did it had a really heavy hand - like PP looked like a matte not a luster
so maybe I might try again.
Would Heroine look good under dish it up? to make it a little more purple?
And I'm hoping Duo 3 is in CCO in July/Aug when I'm in the US. It is such a pretty teal but $57 is too much

WMS is THE coral for redheads. When the Blonde, Brunette, Redhead collection came out, one lipgloss for redheads, Red Devil, was quite similar in colour to WMS.

I just picked up Lightscapade - although from reading this forom you've all dubbed it beigescapade, lol! I don't think I'll mind that it isn't as pretty looking as the other ones so long as it gives a nice sheen. Also picked up Pink Popcorn and Pink Cult. Kind of want Heroine but not sure I'd be able to pull it off - although kind of want it even if I can't, lol.

I ordered Reel Sexy, Heroine and Pink Popcorn, and I might go back for one or two of the Cremesheen Glasses. I already have WMS.
I'm so excited for Heroine!

Mk, I caved. I picked up Heroine too when I ordered from Hey, Sailor! today. I figured for some reason I'd end up regretting not getting it.

Definitely pick up Star Quality!! And if your thinking about any of the eyeshadow duos, Duo 3 is fabulous! Hope you love your lippies girl!

Thanks, me too!
Just got notification my first part of my order has been shipped! Pink Cult, Pink Popcorn and Lightscapade! Can't wait! Heroine should be here Wednesday!

I'm actually thinking about Star Quality because it looks like quite a unique colour. I'm also tempted by Cinestyle. Duo 3 does look good - I find it hard to resist any kind of taupe, and I don't think I have any teals that are similar to that shade... Maybe I will end up spending more on this collection than I thought!Quote: Originally Posted by rubytitania

NYX Crystal Soda Mega Shine Lipgloss is my favorite one ever! I will have to try Reel Sexy l/s with it!

Yes!!! I KNEW I wasn't the only one who loved Crystal Soda! If they ever discontinued it, I'd buy all the backups I could find. No other gloss is perfect for adding shine and a luscious look to the lips like Crystal Soda! And yes, definitely try it with Reel Sexy l/s. Add NYX's Earth Tone lip liner (Spice lip liner for our fair gals) or Chestnut lip liner and you'll have a beautiful, luscious, wearable peach lip.
