Okay I'm gna post some swatches! Sorry it took me so long to get around to it. I'm NW11 or so. I want to put them on the Pedro Lourenco swatches thread, but I'm not sure what to do because there aren't that many posts there and people still post pics in the regular thread... If you want me to delete them here and move them there, I can do that, I don't want anyone to be mad at me :( Here's Gold Mirror (even though it said Mirror on the box, THAT whole mess, never got what I wanted).

[@]LauraLara[/@] great swatches! Have you tried lightly applying PB and then blending it out with your finger? I can't wear it like I would other lipsticks normally but I really like it like that. High maintenance but I think it looks good.

Thanks :) I'll have to try that, it's so creamy and opaque, I really want to love it... I need to get my lipliner on so there's more definition, then it'll look good

That's how I have to wear those types of shades. Or putting on a good liner first and then applying the lipstick more to the center of the lips and lightly blending it out.

Yes I like it blended by itself but liners would help too! I'm sure you'll be able to make it look gorgeous. :)

Me too. Opaque nudes are tricky. I really like them sheer though so that's okay.

I had to laugh because when I got it I was not thrilled with the slight grey undertone. And since I had paid the price of a Tom Ford lipstick for it, I Googled TF Vanilla Suede l/s, and The Sunday Girl said it had a grey undertone she found unflattering, and somehow that made me feel better lol But yeah, I think I'll try some of the above suggestions (applying over MAC P+P, over lipliner) I still like it but it needs a little "help" to work lol :)

I washed a load of laundry today, and I thought that I had checked all of the pockets, but I must of missed one and my Ruby lipstick was in it. So, I ruined it along with a bunch of my favorite dresses, tops, and skirts. I'm just sick over it!

Oh no, so sorry to hear that. :(
Is there any chance you can at least save some of your clothes?
