I wonder if the promo ad for Melt mentions that DGAF is mixed with another color. Just a thought.
Possible, but a lot of people outside of Melt's promo's had that same color, like Shrinkle...she usually mentions all the products she uses in her pictures. Does it still look as purple-based on the lips as in swatches...I feel like on Charisma's pics, her swatches seem more purple-based and on her lips brighter blue comes out, http://charismafull.com/2014/02/19/melt-cosmetics-dgaf-lipstick-reviews-photos-w-swatches/

DGAF definitely looks blue on Charrisma's lips.

Right, which may be why some people are confused?
So maybe this is basically what it does look like, but then what's with the super bright blue ones being seen on people like Amy and the Melt models and such. Even people on instagram are posting their lipsticks look nothing like the one Amy is wearing and are disappointed.
Flash maybe, when I wear mine and the light is super bright outside it looks very bright blue.

Good point, that could contribute too. Lots of things can have an effect...but it's definitely a bit confusing, and disappointing(for some) when what you get is not what you've been seeing, because I think we can at least all agree that the colors we've been swatching is definitely not as bright blue as the color in the promo's or photos floating around online.

EDIT: I think you have a huge point actually, looking back through some posts a few have posted flash and non-flas photos and the non-flash definitely look more purple-ish and the flash based brighter blue.
 
Yeah that helps actually! I was going by a picture I saw of somone comparing the original to the newer one and mine looked like the newer more purple one. No it's not totally purple but it's not a bright true blue like the website pictures to me but I'm sure it's the right colour I was just expecting something a little different I guess

This is the DGAF I think most of us were expecting that Amy is wearing here http://instagram.com/p/vbTAaURRP_/?modal=true The color @erine1881 is more purple based blue to me as well though....and it certainly doesn't look the same as the one in the picture above. I know mine isn't purple, its blue, but it's not the blue I am seeing in Melt's pictures, I think that's where some are a bit confused, and some seem even more purple, which of course our skin tones(and lighting) can affect the color also.
Yes totally agree on everything....

OK, so I sent MELT pictures of my belladonna 2 b/c it looked like there was a smudge on it. They sent me a replacement, and I see the same thing, but not as bad. I don't want to go back them and appear like I'm being shady, so can I sanitize them and they'll be ok? Plus I don't think I need two, I might give the other to my MOm, but want to make sure it is ok.

Yeah, we need a pic!

If I were to get a 2nd Melt lipstick, Bane is at the top of my list!
