I didn't think I'd order another, but decided to get Bengali. Now, I'm confused. Sorry, I didn't pay close attention to posts as I didn't think I'd order it. I just ordered it and I thought there's only one color per texture. It appears I am getting a satin, but I didn't realize Bengali comes satin and matte? Which do you guys prefer?

It must be absolutely dreadful being allergic to balls. Having them on your face is the whole point

What about your
décolleté? That's a lovely place to rub
the balls------do they bother you there too?

It just depends, for me I chose matte because I like bright & bold colors to be in matte and softer colors to be in satin. However I think satin is more forgiving so you can sheer it, use a liner to blend it, etc. so its easier to change the look vs trying to change a matte. So far it seems the matte version has sold more so than the satin but again it just depends on personal preference. Medgal07 got the satin version.

Finally got my matte Rouge Louboutin, Bengali and Survivita. Can't wait to wear my RL!

Zoulou and Youpiyou keeps getting pushed back at Neiman's. I'm tempted to cancel those and order from Nordstrom.
I hope you love them Yazmin!!! I'm addicted to Zoulou and had to FORCE myself not to wear it yesterday. I ended up wearing Impera to go with a pink E/S look as a
nod to BCAM!!! Today it's Djalouzi!!! Burgundy w/pink.

I think you will LOVE Zoulou!!!

I don't like this backorder stuff.
Sephora had Zoulou for so long but now it's S.O.
As much as I love Zoulou and all of the CL lippies that I purchased, I wouldn't back any of them up. They have actual expiration dates and I wouldn't want to risk one
going bad----and they're permanent. I would DEFINITELY purchase it again though.

I love Bengali, satin but wouldn't hesitate to purchase the matte formula too. Chances are I just might some time in the future. I purchased the RL in both satin and matte.

Oh, ok. Thank you. I see what you mean. Yes, seems it's the matte that's sold out so when I saw Bengali available, I pounced not realizing there were 2 versions. I agree that the matte is probably less vivid appearing. Well I said Meddy should be in the ad to sell that shade so if she wore satin in that pic, I'm sold! I'm loving the satins, and I think maybe the versatility is a plus for me. I think you can put translucent powder and matte down any lippie? I'm excited to get it. In my new quest to not only buy nudes.

Thanks, Meddy. Oh, as I said, you rock that color! Gorg! can't wait to get mine! It' sux though to not have these in person. I'm going to NYC so who knows what's gonna happen when I get my hands on these! I might end up with as many as you!

Yeah it's really hard not being able to see them especially for me as I usually never order anything site unseen but I have no choice with these babes and also why I chose to order from Nordstrom only so I can easily return if needed. I have two more coming Torrera & Rococotte so have to see how those work out, Torrera I'm not really worried about but Rococotte will be hit or miss.

At least you do get the chance to try them out in person so that should be fun. Take pics if it won't be too much of a hassle.

You picked beautiful colors. I'm sure you will love them. Rococotte is a beautiful color. I'll definitely take pics for everyone when I go!

Thanks so much! I hope seeing them in person seals your decision. I'm hesitant about Tutulle because I have my heart set an a shade/dupe for MAC Pink Plaid which
works so well on me w/a smokey eye. I think I'll need to see it in person before I actually take the plunge. Have fun in NYC!!!

Both my Zoulou and Youpiyou shipped! Makes me wonder if NM had some in stock and sent notices to everyone asking if they're willing to wait until 11/23, and those that decided to cancel freed those up for those who were going to wait.

I've never done it before but I'm going to try to return Farida and Very Privé. Or sell them. Something I've never even considered doing! I've only used them once and swatched them once each but amongst my other items they're not going get used so... :sigh:
