Best thing to do Robyn is to swatch when Euro II comes out.
RdR d/g isn't orange in colour at all - I'm just saying that it can be paired with true red/warm reds a bit better than what Love Alert can (I'm probably not helping! Sorry!). Hmm... perhaps just get RdR because it's LE and see later on if you want Love Alert?

Thanks Cats. Yes, I would appreciate the swatch of RR of its own thanks. I always wear d/g on top of lipstick or lip liner, but I'd like to see the true colour of it. I was hoping it would be more like Cult of Cherry l/g!
Robyn, but RR is red and Love Alert is pink?

Sambi - put your specs on... Love Alert isn't pink
- it's red too!!
Blue-based red.
I'll hopefully get the swatch done tonight, I have uni after work. Poo.
I don't have CoC l/g so I can't compare to that one. I'll try and do one of LA and one of RdR so you get a comparison of the two. d/gs are notorious for not really showing up in pics tho - but I'll give it a go.

I have CoC and I imagined RdR to be similar so I was going to skip it.. but it looks fabulous. Also I agree with Cats, LA is blue based red

I thought Love Alert was red too? Sambi you've got too many pinks and now your colour blinded to red
Look forward to the swatches Ali!
On another note, I just went to touch up Big Bow and saw I'd left Extra Amps in my bag so I popped it over the top
My lips are like "Hello you know you want to kiss me!" Maybe I should pop over to Nandos and see if I can get some free chicken wings?

Really? That pink? Maybe it's lip pigmentation?
Yeah, I should've taken my hotlips yesterday to Nandos and got me some chickychicken. heheh.
I had a look through the CoC swatches... more often than not CoC l/g had a blue tinge to it. But then there were some swatches (on lips) which made it look very similar to RdR. Hmmm... I guess the obvious difference remaining is the lack of sparkles in CoC l/g tho!

I will have to place LA next to my Dior red gloss to see if I am crazy. After studying colours for 3 years at uni and working with it everyday basis for the last 10 years (and I am positive I am not colour blind), I think I know the difference between red and pink.
Thanks Robyn!! <3

^^ No, you don't want my cheekbones!
When I gain weight, everything goes to my upper cheeks and upper arms. Wish I gain weight around boobs
My Dior gloss is old one too and it still looks and feels okay? I hate how it is non-sticky..
Jen, hope Daly is okay and you are coping it well.

I think Dior Addict is not supposed to be sticky at all
Did you buy it from the Dior counter? Even though I want to venture out to other brands' shimmery glosses, I keep on going back to Dazzleglasses, because they are freakin sticky. Last all day!
What do you get in your MUFE kit? I just ordered three more MUFE shadows and I want to order more.
