crystalunicorn: I compared ANR and SE and they're the same brightness and lightness and a very similar texture, even though technically SE is Amplified and ANR is Cremesheen, but ANR is a bit cooler, with more of a bluish cast. The bluer cast is more or less visible depending on the lighting and the angle you have your head at - it sort of comes and goes. It's not lavender, though, it's pink. They both look equally flattering on my NC15 skin tone. I actually really like ANR -  I don't buy every bright baby pink that comes around but SE and ANR are the ones I've liked best this year that are also bright.  If you really want a warm light pink, you should check out Flamingo. That one's even warmer than SE, although I don't find it quite as flattering on me as SE or ANR. For a really beautiful light pink that is really well balanced between warm and cool, and that is a softer, less in-your-face bright tone, i LOVE Pure Pout Mineralize Rich lipstick. That's a light pink that is really easy to wear! Hope this helps!
Thank you for your recommendations [@]liba[/@]! I think I'm going to have to go with buying ANR. The bluish cast is pretty don't get me wrong :). And flamingo is another pretty one! Thankfully lustres don't dry me out horribly.
That is a pretty good fake!
Wow the fakes have gotten a lot better :shock:  How does the actual lipstick look?  this makes me a lot more cautious with buying Mac lipsticks now  I hope your issue gets resolved and your able to get a refund! 
It is huh! There are only subtle differences in the packaging/labels. The only dead giveaway was the repulsive fake sweet-like chemical smell. I can't explain the smell, but it is forever burned into my nasal memory :sick: & thank you Carmen :heart:
