I was going to post the same. When I swatched Spellbound the other day, my first thought was that it was close to Salem.LA Splash Smitten Lip Tint in Spellbound: http://shop-lasplashcosmetics.com/makeup/lips/lipstick/smitten-liptint.html It's slightly darker, but it works. Also half the price of LC. La Splash Lip Couture in Untamed (currently Sold out atm but swatches are on google)(photo credit[COLOR=444444] @_claudiayvette instagram)[/COLOR]

Thank you Dolly!-- I wanted to try Cashmere. I wonder if mixing Ghoulish and Charmed worked out for whoever was trying that

L-R: Jordana's Coco Loco LL, LC Salem, Mac Film Noir. I'm sure there's got to be some dead on dupes out there as these colors are becoming increasingly popular. Hope you find your Salem dupe soon!

I'm just so glad the more ENLIGHTENED instagram boycotters exist to harass teenage girls who are excited about their Lime Crime purchases. Savin' the world one "OMG YOU'RE SO STUPID!!" at a time, really.

To each their own, if you want to support this business go ahead as long as you don't insult those voicing their complaints and vice versa. My problems with limecrime date long before the credit card incident. From cancelled orders, confusing launch dates, poor communication, crappy customer service to the fact that it would take a week and a half to get my products when I live less than an hour away from their shipment facility. It bothers me that it took this long for people to jump in the bandwagon but then again to each their own.

The velevetine formula is my favorite too. Nothing really has come close yet IMO. I do love the la splash ones but they are a little thicker tho! Amazing colors too.

I really like all my products from LC, I LOVE my Venus palette which is what sucks about this whole thing. Although I'm not buying more as of right now I'm still going to use what I have! I see so many people saying their products are sub par but I love what I've tried

I agree.. Velvetines have the best consistency.. I can only do one coat of LA Splash -- or it turns into a mess on my mouth..I love the colors and price point, but I have to be a lot more careful when applying LA Splashs..I'm just so glad the more ENLIGHTENED instagram boycotters exist to harass teenage girls who are excited about their Lime Crime purchases. Savin' the world one "OMG YOU'RE SO STUPID!!" at a time, really.
That is so wrong.. so are the alleged threats against Doe Deere.. Two wrongs do NOT make a right.. People can not act righteous and then turn around and pull stunts like this... it brings them down to her level..and in some cases -- even lower.

Aww, thank you sweet friend! The hubs just surprised me with a new band on Valentine's day when he asked if I would marry him again. He did good choosing a ring to compliment my original one.

Wow. I was watching a video about the controversy.. Velvetines only have 2.6 ML or 0.088 fl oz of product.. By comparison, Kat Von D liquid lipsticks have 6.6 ML or .22 fl oz .. I did not realize there was such a small amount of product in the tube.. probably because it is frosted and hard to see exactly how much is in it.
Venus, Riot and Cashmere still have yet to sell out.. If the controversy had not happened -- I would bet money that they would have sold out already..

"there is no shortage of people posting that they received products that smelled funky, had separated, were half empty, had hair or mold in them or were ALREADY USED."

I don't know for sure if it's actually the comment made by Xenia but supposedly this is how she replied to a query on quantity vs price!!
