For anyone wavering, I swatched it with guerlain liu in the page before this, and it is just as red as that lipstick.

 

Candy Yum Yum is definitely darker than the original (I've tried my friends before) but I actually like the new color. It may not be as neon (which I'm disappointed with) but it IS more wearable, and pretty.

 

I'm sure someone will take it off your hands rather than returning it.

I LOVE Candy Yum Yum. I was worried I was going to look crazy with it on, but I love the way it looks.

Moxie is okay, but on me it's nothing special. It looks more red than pink than I was thinking it would. I bought a back up and I'm probably going to sell it. 

Rocker is fab as well. Will look great in the winter.

I'll gladly take that extra Moxie off your hands, sight unseen.  I have a feeling I'm gonna love it when I get my box open after work. Let me know if that'sw00t.gif. Thanks!

LOL you are right, my friend just offered to buy it off of me. Spoke too soon.

 

oh and off topic, but everyone in the heavenly creature thread, or at least those still posting, want to see your flattened Earthshine dome. Any chance of pictures?

I'm sure you can find someone who would like Moxie and missed out on it. Try swapping or selling it here before you return it! That way it can go to a loving home instead of an inevitable death, haha.  Looks like you already found someone, yay!

Lol! They whole reason you don't like Moxie is why I have a BU coming lol. Maybe using Embrace Me will brink out the pink in it?

for some reason I dont have that much of a problem with wearing bright pinks... but wearing reds make me feel weird... I'm generally more of a MLBB sheer lipstick person with the occasional brighter pink/purple...but I was not prepared for Moxie... 

I haven't even tried it on...I just swatched it on the back of my hand and was like "whoa... ooookay."

I'm undecided about what to do with it though...I may hoard it for a while. My friend wants a backup of it possibly so maybe I'll just keep it for a while and sell it to her later. Pretty sure shes tapped out on $$ for now, lol.

I would love if they did blushes. I'm still brokenhearted about my Stark Naked breaking into pieces. crybaby.gif

I like this iteration of Candy Yum Yum much more than the original. As others have said, it's a lot smoother and creamier and doesn't seem to dry out my lips nearly as much. Plus, the slight shift in colour prompted me to order another when I was able to...the Quite Cute version looked like Pepto Bismol puke on me and I couldn't stand it.

I was worried I would regret it too. So I told my friend I'd give it to her for $10 if I can cut off the tip to keep some JUST IN CASE. I hate the remorse after I get rid of a product, even though i *know* there was a reason I wanted to get rid of it.

LOL! You are truly my makeup opposite! Soon as I heard redder that I thought, I was clicking the buy button. We would make good partners in crime! Anytime I buy a product that is not the right color for me, I will automatically think of you!

i'm sad either way :(

That does look really red on you! Heck, even CYY looks like it has a red undertone against your complexion! I'm getting scared of Moxie now.. blink.gif I guess I will find out tomorrow.

I can only really see the pink undertone of Moxie when I use the flash on the camera... 

I'm sorta yellow toned, i wonder if that is why?

Wow! That does look red on you! I was trying not to see those Creme Sheen + Pearls until after the holiday collections! They are gorgeous! But I need to get through SS, MM, and holiday, then some of those will be mine to chase away the winter duldrums!

Moxie is a red color with a touch of pink, I was so confused when people were comparing it to Party Parrot. Isn't Moxie a color that Dita Von Teese wears?

NYC hot pink or pinky to make it more wearable but that was for the original so I guess hot pink will do

Is it just me that's depressed about not getting a cyy? I know it's just a lipstick but it's my favorite idk anyone that got one and I'm willing to trade a moxie for it. Ugh it's so unfair that the people that really want it can't get it and the people who can careless about it but to make extra money can icon_eek.gif

You know what?  I have one that I grabbed to be my 50% off item in the last BOGO 1/2 NYX sale they had at Ulta and I haven't used it yet.  I may have to try it out soon because it looks gorgeous on you copperhead! You may have just saved me from going nuts waiting for the next restock of CYY.  sweet.png
