And I looked at the one I'm currently using and there is a fair dip in it already, so now I feel much less bad flower.gif

 

I wish I would have backed up FM. I love it so much and now I'm afraid to use it because I don't want it to run out!

My counter still had about a dozen left, and I used a £15 points voucher thing so I got 2 for £32 :)

It's so perfect but I need to save up for GD!

Go Gracie! greengrin.gif

I've been too chicken to try my SI b/c it is so not a color I would choose and I'm new to lipstick. I also have CIS (among others LOL) sitting in it's box. I'm afraid of the CIS b/c it's blue based and I'm not in love with Eden Rouge on me which is also a blue based red. I've tried LG which is nice, but DA looks AMAZING on me. I met a guy who complimented my lipstick when I wore it. It was so cute. We were arguing and in the midst he scowled, "Your lipstick is perfect right now!" Later he said it looked natural; like it was my signature color. Is that the highest compliment someone can give you on a red? I dunno, but it made me regret not backing it up since it could be my perfect red. I need to swap my backup LG for DA instead.

I am, however, feeling encouraged to try on SI with this person's encouragement.

If you prefer DA to LG, I would swap them in your place.

I also got CIS, eventhough orange reds work better with my complexion. I was surprised that CIS actually works on me.

I love SI me. As kimibos mentioned SI is similar to Lady Danger, the only difference I see is that Lady danger is slightly more orange and is brighter, but some people don't see any difference between them, so maybe you check Lady Danger out first?))

Me too. LD is more loud and a bit more orange. SI is a slightly fresher version of LD to me. I like them both, but I haven't reached for LD since I have SI.

I wouldn't want the color to be any more orange so I'd likely prefer SI to LD. (I say this having never tried an orange red before LOL.) I'm so nervous about the brightness of it. If I had a MAC anywhere near me I would try it on. Honestly, I just have to get used to looking in the mirror and seeing myself with lipstick on. It looks like an imposter most of the time. I think I've seen a couple of nice pics of CIS on people close to my shade C7/NC45 so I have a feeling it could work well, too. I just need to get over my fear of lipstick. For years I've only worn chapstick and the occasional gloss. Lipstick makes me feel like I'm playing dress up.

I have an extra SI from a UK CP.  Let me know if you want it.  I could either mail it from the US, or I'll be in Norwich after the 10th of November for a class and can send it from there.

UK ladies - Charmed I'm Sure appears to be in stock on the Debenhams website, but I think there may only be ONE left! I tried to add it to my bag to check and it won't let me add more than one ("not available in the quantity you requested"). Of course, Debenhams is sometimes a bit rubbish with this sort of thing so it might not be in stock at all, but I thought someone might want to try to grab it!

That's ever so kind of you to offer)) Thank you so much, I would purchase it off you if I wasn't buying a house at the minute..I just can't afford spending any extra money, unfortunately. But thanks for the offer, much appreciated.

Bare in mind, i'm from Germany and our retail price was 19,50€ for those lipsticks.

 

Update: CIS is gone.

i received my CIS, can't wait to wear it tonight with my Halloween costume!
