Just tried on Dangerous. Its such a beautiful slight red orange!

I wouldn't even think about dupes for these - just get the real thing. Nothing is going to be like the depth of color & texture.

I wore All Fired Up through a dinner of Sweet & Sour chicken & my lipstick still looked perfect afterward & I'm sure there was some grease in there somewhere

Funny - at dinner hubs asks...did you get new lipstick today? I smiled & said Nope

Has anyone actually B2M for these? I don't want to get denied at the counter. I will be so embarassed.
They aren't at the counters in the US yet unless some stores are selling earlier than they are supposed to. If someone was successful at buying these in store today hopefully they'll chime in.

after seeing all you beautiful ladies' swatches, my list has shortened to just AFU, FOF, and Dynamo l/l. i'm happy that these are permanent because i am so broke right now, lol.

I know right. My counter is not releasing early.

You know what really drives me crazy when I B2M - they will go through my bag & say...'Oh my I can't believe you're getting rid of that" or something similar. geesh

Flat Out Fabulous lipstick
700
Dangerous lipstick
700
Fixed on Drama lipstick
700
When this collection hits counters I want to pick up Shock Value liner and maybe Relentlessly Red lipstick.
FOD came in perfect condition! Embrace Me, Shock Value, Silly All Shock Value I don't have anything else really to compare to FOD and I'm not completely sure I like it. 
Fixed on drama is really doing it for you ladies. Looks very similar to sin in the photos, but close enough to justify both for me. I can't wait to receive mine now! Woo hoo!

Does anyone have comparison swatches for Impassioned to All Fired Up and Relentlessly Red?

I'm not sure what to get, esp since it's unsure what's LE and what isn't. Atm I'm charmed by Runway Hit, Steady Going, FOF and Relentlessly Red or All Fired Up. Not sure about the last two since I'm a fan of pinker reds, hate corals and in some pics RR has a bit of a coral undertone. So confusing. :(

Sorry for the dumb question, but is there a specific sharpener needed for these lip pencils?
Okie! :kiss: If i still worked for mac i would tell you yes, you need the mac sharpener. But seeing as i don't...any good quality sharpener will do. Just not some crappy sharpener from the $1 store. I've had 2 mac sharpeners in the last 3 months fall apart on me, so i myself am looking for a replacement sharpener, $9 pieces of crap! It'll be fixed tomorrow or the day after. It took 2-3 days for them to fix the pro discount on LL paint pot, but they finally got it fixed!
NARS! Best sharpener ever!!!

I think I just want Magenta. FB looks good, but Magenta looks better. Thanks
