I am so with you! This is like the PERFECT purple for all skin tones. I haven't seen it look bad on anyone. I have a whole draw full of purple lipsticks, but I think this is the one

Now to figure out how to wear amplified finishes without them slipping all over my face.
Prep and Prime lip from MAC or if it super stubborn UD Ozone.

It is tough on slippery lippies.

So true. I don't understand why some bloggers are so hated, especially when they are such nice people and haven't done anything wrong.


I guess I'm in the minority here but I really like musings of a muse, all kidding aside. It was the first beauty blog I ever discovered and I still check it everyday.
I do, however, dislike Temptalia for many reasons. Mainly her holier than thou/rude replies to comments and the ridiculously reaching questions of the day.
I've been reading Temptalia for years, she is actually how I found Specktra...but I've never once seen her be even slightly rude to anybody, even the people who are really rude to her. And her questions of the day are usually submitted by readers.

Honestly, I have seen Temptalia be a bit rude to readers before. She was even quite dismissive to me once. I simply asked her how two lipstick shades differed because the two looked almost identical to me, and she didn't list them as dupes. She simply told me to go compare them in the swatch gallery and provided no other assistance really. That wasn't much help at all, and her lighting is so bright most of the time that it's hard to tell.

Aww sucks! It is you know how mattes are just amazing well I was surprised that a color like this and with an AC finish was just awesome!
Eep yeah I usually only like deep colors with a matte formula but this one looks beautiful! Hope your moms okay!

I get two Pure Heroine lipsticks on Wednesday. Cannot wait to experiment with them with Magenta lip liner. I really need to own Nightmoth, Currant and Vino lip liners.

Everybody looks so gorgeous in their pics! I got mine late Friday afternoon. Been busy so haven't even gotten a chance to really wear it. I did swatch it on my hand and I can tell I'm gonna love it lol. It's such a pretty plum color! I'm glad I got two. I can see myself wearing this a lot.

Look on the far right for "Recent Images in this Thread" and click on view all. There are comparison photos of many purple lipsticks. The photos don't always say what colors they are, but in the top there's a message #, and if you click that you'll see what the poster wrote.

Pure Heroine is darker and a tad redder than Heroine, but there's a bit more going on with PH than just than, such as finish.

I got Pure Heroine on Friday (cool! next day delivery worked!) and wore it yesterday. I put it on in the AM, then had a real breakfast (that's my biggest meal of the day), around 5PM-ish i had a bowl of soup. After the soup i looked in a mirror and there was still a fair amount of lipstick still on my lips! When i went to bed i wiped off my face but not my lips because by then i figured it would be all gone. Woke up to find there was still a hint of color on my lips! Heroine never lasted so long...

ETA: i prefer a bluer lipstick - if this went on the color it is in the tube i would be ecstatic! But it still looks great! There's a hint of complexity to the color. Plus i like this finish better than matte. I am not at all disappointed. Not backing it up, tho - i rarely do - my only lipstick BUs are Go For It, Firm Form, and Caliente.
