I'm really excited for this! I want both the l/s and gloss.

Hey guys! As I've already mentioned I got my VG Riri 2 today. Here are some swatches, please excuse that some pictures show only half of my lip, my upper lip is reeeally sore right now So about the lipstick: I LOVE the colour, but applying this baby is somehow difficult. You need to apply some layers until it shows up and I would recommend using a lippencil underneath the lipstick, otherwise you will still see the colour of your lips. The lady at MAC said that this lipstick looks good with many different lippencils even plum or red ones - that should be worth trying L - R: VG Riri 2, Stone lip pencil, Exclusive Event lipstick From distance the lipstick looks a bit darker than it does on this lipswatches.

Love it

Love! I was going to buy icon today but they look similar enough I'm just going to wait for this.

I thought I was the only who thought they look similar I passed on icon too for this one

Ooooh, very pretty swatches. Interested in what it would like under a plum lip liner, I wonder if this will be a close color to MAC's "O" or "Fetish," hmm.

Lol! I was sooo tempted by Icon, but thought these look kinda close, so decided to wait on this!

I love how unique it is. Although I would never wear it. Just the gloss for me

It looks good on you! These pics make me want to get it. I'll have to try it on in-store, I think.

 

[Anaphora]

The lipstick is a definite skip for me, but I'm loving the lipglass.

 

[NaomiH]

Thanks for the swatches @Periodinan !

 

[LadyC05]

I'm still on the fence about the lipstick but I will probably get it anyway. With my luck someone will post an awesome lipstick combo that I will want to try out immediately! Worst case scenario, at least the lipstick is for a good cause.

Lovely swatches--you are possibly convincing me that I could get away with it. I wanna wait and get a set with a cute make up bag if they release soemthing like that around the holidays as they did with Gaga but I may become too impatient and get it before then. I am not sure if I want the gloss but I am coming around on the lipstick. I was afraid I would be too pale to wear it, but maybe?? I want to first see swatches versus Bronzilla, Coconutty and Astral but I am probably dreamin'

 

[stephshopaholic]

I bought stone not too long ago so I'll definitely get this to try over it and the gloss is lovely so I'll get that too lol.

 

[Seven Of Nine]

The duo - lipglass and lipstick look together on the lips very very interesting

Alone lipstick is interesting too and unique, but on my NC15 skin is too brown and unnatural. Perhaps it will look better with red lippencil.

Thanks for posting! looks great on you. I love exclusive event so I know I will definitely love this one.

 

[Howards End]

Very helpful thanks Periodinan! I think the sheerness will actually make it look better on me. I passed on Icon because sadly I knew it wouldn't be flattering on me but this one could work!

I don't think you'd be too pale for that lipstick, actually I think it would look quite nice on you.
I am NC/NW 15/20 (my concealer is NC 15, my powder/foundation NW20) and I think it looks quite nice on me. It does look a bit darker irl than it does on this pictures.
I think you will like it
