Thanks for doing this, Nay. They all look alike. DfD looks like it it is the most pigmented of the three.
I think DFD is my favorite of the bunch . Not sure about the new Heaux yet,but I'll probably wear it tomorrow. I hope it's one of the good amplifieds

I just opened my new Heaux and was a bit surprised to see it has sparkle/shimmer to it? Not heavy but it's not a flat colour by any means

OG Heaux :haha: I have D is for Danger so I really don't *need* it but cremesheen is my favorite finish from MAC. And my lips are too fried from all the matte lip products this year.
We actually discovered that it's Amplified based on the labelling. Though I'm not 100% sure about that. I find my amps less shiny and more opaque usually. This doesn't wear like an amp to me. Tried it again earlier:
700
Paired with NYX Deep Purple Lip Pencil
400
Credit Makeup A to Z Blog I'm really going to put her in the fridge now!

Heaux 2.0 has to much shine for my taste. I'm glad I have it but I will wear it when my other two Heauxs are gone. I am not a big fan of Heaux 2.0 on me. It's just okay. The color is beautiful though.

Really? It wasn't because it was sweating from the heat? Mine is glossy looking but no shimmer...

Same thing I said in my first post wearing it. Too shiny for me to want a backup. I've been calling it "Heaux Part Deux" :haha: Yup, nice color because it looks like the OG in that aspect, but the finish like we said since the first day we found out it was being re-released in another finish, makes it different.

Luckily for us, D for Danger is closest to the RiRi Heaux.

For sure. Reason: It is closest to Heaux part I lol.
Hahaha. I have no idea wth MAC named this Heaux. I mean use another name! Won't be the first time they released the same colors with different finishes and names! Heaux=DfD, RRB=MLM, etc...

Are you going to get Quelle Surprise?
What's the finish for that? Because I can't take another shade that looks like I just ate fried chicken like Heaux Pt Deux does! Seriously I feel like I was wearing OG Heaux then stopped at KFC, had a 2 piece and just left my lips and didn't touch-up or wipe it off and start over!

I think it's only me that finds them drying lol. It's weird. I love mattes too and honestly most of them I don't find drying.
Mattes and retro mattes I love but have issues near my inner mouth and corners if I'm not careful. And the lighter colors I need to sandpaper my lips first :lol:
*whispers* this released? LOL  I'm sooo far behind. 
:rofl: Omg you whispered! I caaaaaaaan't! Yeah it released on Tuesday boo.

Lip swatch and comparison. I'm going to hold out on a full review. It is way too creamy right now but it's possible that's just because it's soft from the UPS truck. We'll see.
Always love your nice, clean, organized pics. Lipstick looks great on you!

Sheeeeeet, in that case I'll just go put on Açai or something and eat some KFC :rofl: Of course this is not to knock those who like this finish. It's just not for me. I either need super matte or super shiny, I can't do in between.
