@Starlight77 I posted this to you in FoF... Just wanted to make sure you saw it... "I agree. You have every right to be upset and disappointed. It's not the product you were led to believe it was. It's the principal of the thing. Companies shouldn't have an open door policy to deceive their customers. There may be others that don't mind. But I do.
Perhaps you could sell these 2 in the Clearance Bin to those that are looking for PT 2.0 instead of going through the trouble of returning them. And it's like you got a free one, so you could even get rid of them for a little below retail and make the money to pay you back for the Dior highlighter you bought in place of faulty PT 2.0! Just a thought!"

Yes I read it. I should have posted my disappointment here but didn't want to cross post. Maybe I will quote myself lol

Alright, I can do this. Maybe I'll go lay in the snow until I don't want Amber Diamond anymore! If I'm not back in 30, send help lol!

Yes see this is how the companies get us and we fall for it each time. We both wanted the DRD prior to finding out it's discontinued so I'm good with my purchase but I remember thinking that the amber may be too warm toned for me. Trying to find out yet fight urge to buy it

I think we need to send help lol

and lol http://beautyandthebullshit.blogspot.com/2011/02/top8-bullshit-tactic-statistics-on.html I had my suspicions but this just shattered my belief that they do proper testing at least to back up their claims =.= "As there is this wonderful thing called the placebo effect working for you, me and the good of all mankind. So long as you believe, so shall it be- why else do you think religion is so popular." hah

Oh my God...I LOVE her. As someone who really doesn't suffer fools gladly, I absolutely adore charming, well-spoken ass-kickers who get out there naming names.

The warmth Amber Diamond has was the only thing keeping me from buying immediately. Thanks to the ladies in this thread I think I'm okay now!

Whew ladies stay strong!. I went to the mac counter in macys this past saturday because I wanted the paint pot in laying low and a concealer. I turned in six empties and got all fired up lipstick so I am good. My beautiful sales representative said, "Bye girl see you thursday", I was like no no suga I am good. I intend to buy a lipstick holder that keeps no more than twenty little pretties and will only replace one if it gets used up or goes bad. The rest will appear in the clearance bin real soon. And I am not using my credit card. I am paying cash for my goods. Whew I feels like I am at a makeup support group! Keep supporting each other ladies your wallet will thank you.

I rediscovered my The Perfect Cheek a few days ago and wore it twice in one week. Can't believe I'd almost given it away!

I rediscovered that one as well. When I tried it with my first Hakuhodo brush it was like a different blush.

All right ladies, now you've done it. Your thumbs up have pushed me into the 1's again. Have any of you noticed that it takes way more thumbs up to get from 1 to 2 than it does to get from 8 to 9? Not that you appear to be worried, but that gets a numbers person like me all kinds of agitated - WHAT'S THE FREAKING PATTERN????? WTF?

I don't come to this board for Chaos Theory. There must be order, dammit!

That is all.

Hahaha this made me laugh out loud. One minute I think no no wait for the new formula you may like it better, even the new packaging could be nicer but than the other half whispers... Just get it... You have a gift card.... LOL

I did too! I'm thinking of speaking to a Dior rep again and trying to get more info on new packaging and formula. I doubt they're as secretive as MAC!

I LOVE Boy, I think I need another one...

I'm tempted by the new Rouge Coco Shines as well, but I haven't seen enough swatches yet to decide if I'll get one.

I need a brush to use all my RCS's now because they are down to their last little nub

My favourite lipstick formula of all time!

Boy and Gentle are two if my favorite items in my collection! I returned a mascara to Bloomingdales today and couldn't find the receipt. I immediately spent the store credit on ysl fuschia in rage. I mean it was store credit after all... And omg it's beautiful. I blame this solely on Lisa Eldridge.

I grew to love the RCs -- it was an immediate dislike because knowing that pigments cost more than emollients, I have an aversion to emollient based products..lol. Call me cheap. But I use my RCs as glosses, on top of my matte ls, and they work far better for this purpose. No ultra shine liver lips for me.

I use a concealer brush for my ls apps.. all time unless I am doing my pinkie rub
