Just got mine I paid for overnight lol I love matte Royal! No makeup today but I had to try this on in the car lol its definitely blue in the tube and on my lips although I suppose it has a purple tint to it. I also got stone and whirl will try them later but they look pretty.

Cashmere is great. It didn't budge for 10 to 12 hours, lasted through 2 meals and several beverages. I also have NYX Black Sesame, which is a pastel and lasts a surprisingly long time for a normal lipstick. I don't own any grey clothes, but i wear grey lipstick :haha:
I have Black Sesame too. Like it.

These swatches are great!! Thank you to everyone posting these swatches. If any of you has NYX's Maison would it be possible for you to swatch it against Stone? I am thinking that maison is slightly more brown than stone. Any assistance will be appreciated. TIA.
They're going to be similar. Maison + Butter = RiRi Nude...Stone is supposed to be similar to Nude. Hahahahaa. There's my equation without having Stone or Maison, lol! :bump:

From the swatches here, Stone looks both less warm and darker than SiS. You may still dislike it, but i think it's worth testing.
You're right as actually on my phone they look different but when I saw them earlier on my work computer they looks the same. I will give it a try still

So happy to see more pics and swatches roll in! :)

Just some first impressions, as I haven't swatched anything yet:
~"Matte Royal" is definitely bluer than "Gunner." I don't know how much purple there is in it since I've only looked at the bullet, but it looks navy blue enough to me (YAY).
~"Stone" is darker than "Styled In Sepia" (and Colour Pop's "Tootsi"). Not sure how much gray/purple there is in it, again because I haven't swatched. Right now it only looks like there are gray tones, which is slightly disappointing because I've been wanting a slightly purple-ish/mauve-ish taupe lipstick. Then again, I never had the liner so chances are if you are expecting something based off the liner, you may be 100% satisfied.
~Speaking of liners, I never owned "Whirl" either, or even looked into it, but for some reason I thought there was some pink to it. It is VERY brown in the tube - I was not expecting that! Makes me feel better about not picking up "Persistence" (though now I'm curious how that one looks!).
~"Brave" looks super pretty but I won't go into detail with that one because it is irrelevant to this collection, LOL!

Anywho, I'm still super happy that I have my lipsticks. *-* I really hope we get some more sunshine tomorrow so I can take pics!

new shades on th left Riri ones on the right
That's quite interesting. So I guess you are saying that MLM is a dupe for RiRi Boy and D for Danger is a dupe for Heaux. I am super excited to learn this.I can't wait to get my order on Wednesday.

Heaux and RRB are two of my fav shades next to FoF.

DGAF on top (the old blue one not the blurple one) and matte Royal on bottom they are pretty close matte Royal is a tad more muted and purpley.
