I thought so but, I was talking to my favorite MA the other day, and she said her TA was also kinda dry. It behaves just like CYY, which is by far the most dry, not any fun to wear lipstick I have ever owned!

Aww, boo! Hopefully you will still get plenty of use out of it if you use a gloss. I don't usually have trouble with dry formulas so I guess I wouldn't notice too much. I wear mattes and retro mattes all the time.

I love mattes and retro mattes but, this one is different. It, as well as CYY, beads up and gathers around the edges of my lips. I have to wear it with a gloss on top to keep that from happening. That's fine but, TA is a pretty and loud color by itself, and that's the way I like them.

I have a backup but, I'm afraid to try it because I fear it will be the same.

That doesn't sound good at all! Something sounds very off about it!

I agree because this is not a problem I have had in the past. I will keep working with them because they are great colors worth any and all effort put forth to wear them.

I agree. Definitely a stunning shade! I'm hoping your BU turns out to be better once you get around to using it.

My TA isn't "creamy" in the tube, but when I apply it, it warms up on my lips and looks and feeling creamy after a couple minutes. The trick is to not over apply, just because it doesn't feel like it's spreading in an expectedly thick layer straight from the tube, since when it does warm up, too much of it just gets beady, like how you are describing. Just dab it on lightly, let it set for a minute then do a second light layer if needed. That ought to fix your issue.

Also, be careful about how tight the cap is on - I've noticed the caps on my Playland lipsticks feel a little loose or something - I have to be a little more careful about making sure they're firmly clicked into place.

Dab and smoosh...I still remember that method.
