After looking at all of the swatches, the only thing I have determined is that I do not know what colour this lipstick actually is. I swear, this thing is like a fricken mood ring or something. Hopefully mine arrives soon and I can see for myself!

After taking a million pics, concluded that pics do not really capture the actual color. It is definitely pink but it has a coral tone to it as well.

Its a yellowed rose carnation pink & its just lovely. I immediately put 2 on hold at my MAC. It reminds me of an old fashioned kinda vintage pink color. I don't have anything like it. yeah, I know...that's hard to believe

Ha--I did your dab and smoosh today with my dark lippie from Daphne, and I thought of you. I am going to need 2 of these as well, and I have not even seen it IRL yet.

Carnation! Yes! I was trying to figure out what color this reminded me of and your combo fits the bill all I could think of was pink and salmon and then thought pink salmon, salmon croquettes, lunch time, food, yay! and got totally off track, tee hee!

It's an interesting color on me, but I'm not quite sold on it yet. I'll have to play around with it more, since straight from the tube isn't really doing it for me. It's cute and pretty on, but I feel like I need more. I blame the Apfel mattes for this, lol.

Don't know what would be a dupe for this, for some reason I want to mix Vegas Volt with a pink but haven't decided what pink that would be. (background: on me this lipstick is more coral/yellow pink on my pigmented lips, but now I'm rambling.)

I just received mine using the email code today.

Tried it on and wowza this is bright but totally wearable, at least on my skin tone/coloring -- on me it is a neon pop of flamingo. I can see the coral-ish thing going on but it veers more pink flamingo on me. Hope that helps someone :)

I am going to l-o-v-e this shade when spring/summer hits. I love it

... will be looking to get a backup whenever it's officially available online.

I think its a great idea to send out these invites. It prevents people from stocking up and selling the items with a high profit margin on ebay. I wonder if we will see more of this type of marketing in the near future.

Absolutely! There is a limit of 1 lipstick per invite. I wish Ricky's had been included as well, but I'll buy it another time. I don't see it selling nearly as much as Nicki, even though anyone can use a lip balm.

I agree Mac-Guy. Such a shame that most people miss out on great products at good prices due to people's greed. Wouldn't surprise me at all if this became more of a normal thing.

I do think it's a great idea; I just don't understand why some people (myself included) haven't received an e-mail and others have. Maybe they'll continue to send out batches of e-mails in the coming week though.
