is shady lady close to quick sizzle i missed out on that and i wanted itWELL, I own those so....pink pigeon..is much lighter and thats close to candy yum yum....and Quick sizzle..is close in tone...but their is a difference...and so shady lady is like ..a intense quick sizzle with more purple magenta undertones....so if u take quick sizzle and blend a touch of the heroine lipliner and blend in to it...thats shady lady.....its a pretty color...its matte , smooth and rich pigment...no patchy stuff..like candy yum yum or sheerness like quick sizzle ....its a one swipe thing....and im sure ppl will try to find a dupe but maybe dupe the 'TONE" ..but its still a different color and im glad its in my collection!

my advice if you want the low stock one i say just get it i found out about the lipstick in july and they didnt restock until october they are still a new company so i think thats why it takes long to restock as well as to for-fill all the orders

I got my package today. I put aside my disappointment about shipping and I was still excited to try out my stuff. I have to say I am disappointed.The good things: The lipstick is not drying. It applies smoothly and it's opaque. The scent. Someone said baby powder and that scared me because bp makes me want to vomit. It's not like that to me. It's like sweet candy or some kind of cake batter with a slight perfume scent. It's hard to place. The packaging is nice, if not particularly fancy. Now the negative: By Starlight is the biggest sham ever. Looks nothing like it does on the site. It's a light purple. It's in the violetta family. I was looking for a deep purple and this has more pink. Even in the tube it looks more berry pinky/purple than a true purple. Got the wool completely pulled over my eyes on that and I'm disgusted. Space Cake is nice. Now that one is actually true to color. Imagine that. I made it more wearable by pairing it with Nightmoth liner. Funny how Nightmoth seems to be the answer for everything. Time will tell if I actually have the nerve to wear it out, though. Oh and that mirror is so cheap. I thought it was a compact and it's just an open mirror free to be scratched and abuse in .2 seconds. So, all in all a total fail for me. I wasted a good $40 that I could've used for countless other things. Next. I've been strangely looking at Bang! Bang! and Belladonna 2, but how can I dare take the chance after this experience?

Oh my gosh, I got By Starlight ,now I am worried it won't look good. Since I am hearing Nightmoth being paired with everything I think it would be a better deal to get that and just pair up with similiar shades.

Wait. Are you worried about Starlight or Space Cake? Starlight looks good it just depends if it's the shade you were expecting. Space Cake isn't bad on it's own. It's just odd and takes some getting used to. For my complexion I think it's easier for me to darken the edges. Instagram is deception central, but it seems lighter skin can get away with SC on it's own.

By Starlight is the one I am worried about. I was expecting it to be as adevertised but as I am seeing none of the shades are as shown, but then again no lipstick ever truely is. I am seeing Space Cake grey on some and on others a little more blue, both look nice to me.

Ugh! My stuff still hasn't reached me yet! And I ordered about 3 hrs after the launch. This is ridiculous. At this point I don't care how good By Starlight is on me..I'm not ordering from Melt again.

Advertising can make things more appealing, but this is just straight fraud and inexcusable. I 99% of the time with the brands I buy from I get what I paid for in terms of color. The only thing not completely pissing me off is that the actual quality is good. Space Cake looks exactly as shown on the site. I don't know what it does on other peoples lips or their picture filters.
See, I'm mad about that. I hate this grape purple. I wanted a blue based purple. Ugh. Looks like Mac's Punk Couture is my only cure.

BY STARLIGHT LOOKS LIKE HEROINE ON ME!! I cannot believe this. I am too through. I never, ever wanted Heroine. That kind of color does nothing for me. I mean, it looks exactly like that on me. What the hell man? why aren't the quotes working properly? hboy: is it my screaming?
