I've got Relentlessly Red and Runaway Hot and they are both so lovely! I am very tempted to get Dangerous but would like to know how it compares with Nars Red Square? It is on my wish list for so long, now I don't know which I should get, but I'm facing an orange red for so long. (Maybe both when I get payed again lol)

I think its just a mistake from their part like many others. Relentlessly Red was never referred to as LE; according to the bloggers only FOD, RH, and SG were limited edition and I still highly doubt that but anyway....if you go to the website and search under the lipstick category (not collection) and select the "Limited Edition" tab you'll notice that Relentlessly Red isn't included :)

Yeah, I hope it's just a mistake.

Thank you for the offer! But I will probably just get it off of Nordies website.

Trying to decide if I wanna track down steady going or hope for restock.
Thanks!

I've also been thinking of getting Runway Hit, it looks so pretty on everyone but I feel like I have so many new lippies that I haven't gotten around to trying. Stilll might get it though :shock:

I got all of these at release but I haven't touched them since I first tested them. Not because I don't like them. I just have a ton of product that I haven't had a chance to even swatch let alone actually use. There's no telling how many lippies I have sitting unused at this point lol.

I only have "Steady Going" from this collection. I've hoarded A LOT of lipsticks over the past year and I continue to convince myself (AND FAILING) that I don't need anymore colors from this collection. Since "Runway Hit" is back in stock and supposedly limited edition, is it worth it? I've got a wide array of nudes in my collection and the closest I can match "Runway Hit" are Wet 'n Wild's "Just Peachy." and MAC's "Kinda Sexy." Is it even close? If not, I may need to snag this lipstick!

It looks very similar to Fanfare to me which is one of my favorite colors but I like the matte version better. That being said, you have to prep your lips with either balm or Prep N PRime, because it shows every single crevice, I swear it made my lips look dried up, mummy lips! The color is really pretty peachy not quite coral pink though.

Lol I couldn't resist. I have brand new lippies too. I have Betty bright still unused so I hope it's no where near that color lol otherwise it may just sit

runway hit was iffy for me at first cuz i had no other makeup on when i tried it on...but after a beat face, I absolutely loveddddd it!! it's so gorgeous--the texture, the color---very longwearing and unique (at least in my collection). i didn't want fixed on drama, but everyone keeps talkin abt it like it's a must-have. Does any1 know how similar TTT is to fixed on drama? I have TTT sooo would it be worth it to try to search n buy fixed on drama? also if any1 is looking to sell their fixed on drama, i'm a taker :)
Oh yes, the beat face makes all the difference. I have bought a few things that I wasn't sure of until I have " my full face" on. On another note, I loooove :eyelove: FOD! Especially with Night Moth, which combined on my lips looks like TTT without the patchiness (even Diva looks quite similar)

Should I get Dangerous? I am not sure if it's an unique shade
I really Like Dangerous, but I wouldn't say it's unique. I haven't reached for it in the same way I have FOF & FOD or even Ruby Woo.

This is the result of today's fight with FOD. I love it so much - but I hate the way it makes me in the morning! I knwo it must be something to do with my lips, I exfoliate and moisturise them twice a day at the moment but it still goes on patchy on my bottom lip, top lip it glides on a dream * Le Sigh* I even tried a bit of Smashbox primer to see if it helps, it did a little. Still eventually here is FOD with a plum liner from sephora (It's really nice btw, number 09 I think)

I don't have it yet but still plan to because I LOVE the retro matte formula. I posted a swatch a while back with Dangerous next to Lady Danger and they are as close to dupes as they come. But still the formula is going to make me get it.

I will see if I can find my swatch and repost it.
