Yeah, when I say "hype" I just mean that there seems to be some excitement around it and more attention being paid to it than I'd thought there would be. I don't normally wear that type of color, but that's because I've never had the opportunity to. I'm still rather new to unusual lip colors (and among my friends and family, anything that isn't a mild pink is considered to be "unusual"), so the issue with SiS is that I'm trying to figure out if people want it for the novelty factor (or simply because they're edgy/artsy/fearless), or if this is a color that will work out surprisingly well for most people.
When Dodgy Girl was released, I bought it thinking that it would be sort of a novelty item, that I'd wear it around the house or on Halloween or something. I figured everyone on Specktra was excited for it because they're more artsy or edgy than I am, or because they were like me and liked the novelty of it. When I actually received it and tried it on, I realized that everyone wanted it because it legitimately looks nice on most people. They knew something I didn't know, since they all had more experience with purple lipstick than I did. I'm trying to determine if this is what is likely to happen with SiS. I don't *think* this is the type of color I'd fully enjoy, but then again, that's how I felt about Dodgy Girl at first, and now I own two tubes of it! I think I'm still leaning toward buying SiS just in case. I don't want to regret not buying it.
