Only the tester at my local Sephora. I haven't had time yet to venture out to other Sephora's or Nars counters. I'll let you know when I do and post a pic of the comparison swatches in the RiRi thread when I do!
I just love Damned. Bought mine two years ago. To me in comparison to Heaux it is a bit more cooler/purple. I remember when MAC cancelled orders last year for ordering before the launch time, I was pissed and vowed not to get Heaux cause Damned was similar. Eventually I got over it and got Heaux anyways. Glad I did. LOL!

If u aren't VIB rouge your points don't hold worth anymore... They just had a store opening in NYC that only rogue people were invited to
Can you explain this? I just became VIB rouge and so far all I see as a perk is free shipping. I have 1100 points (have spent other points on smaller items through the year).

Are there any other real perks to being VIB rouge than just the free shipping all the time (which is an awesome perk). That and some of the LE lippies and stuff that only Rouge people an buy?

You get all of the in-store make-over stuff and consultations free (I use that ALL the time, like every time I go to the mall). To be honest, even if you have zero points you can always get them to do your makeup, but if you're VIB rouge you can call ahead and reserve a time. Like set up the hour and a half or whatever make-over and consultation. Plus there are random redeemable things only for rouge, like they had a 1000 point thing that was two full-size marc jacobs lip products. Then there are super duper random things like they give you a bottle of water at check out (and sometimes ring a bell and everyone goes WOOO!! It's super awkward).

I totally missed out on that 1000 point Marc Jacobs set but that was a really awesome gift! I think its funny the special treatment you get with being a VIB rouge, its like every time I go to check out the MUA is always surprised and super duper nice when I hand them my card lol

But the key thing to VIB Rouge which everyone miss is its not point based its actually based on the dollar amount you spend. In some cases that match and in some cases it dont.. my friend have 1100 points but only spent $600 so she is not rouge..

but like the other ladies say you get the consultations for free and priority.. some products like the new MUFE 30 palette is open to Rouge only.. and depending on your location you get invites to special parties..

Yep this is true. I just found this out. Not too long ago they had where you could earn 4x the points for your purchases for VIB rouge and it knocked me up to 1150 points which I thought would maintain my status but it still showed the dollar amount I needed to spend to stay Vib rouge. -_-

I still prefer the eBay route when I want a disc/LE MAC l/s, I'm too picky for a duplicate/replica to satisfy me lol

They need to improve that system. The 4x points are nice as well as early access but I feel like it's not enough because the point perks are every once in a while. You've literally spent $1000 in a calendar year at their store. They should do more meet ups and get togethers with makeup artists or something.
