Holy wow. These look like a better version of the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams, which I loved except for the fact that they were a teeny bit chalky. I wound up not picking any more up. THESE BABIES, WHOAAAA. I'm in trouble on payday. I want these for my kit AND myself.

the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams are a bit dry but these aren't! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I would suggest picking some of these up.

Happy dance

 Lol. I ended up getting Apocaliptic, Stellar and Celestial.

lucky! I am still looking around here for those! 

 
HELP!  

So, I was dying for Show Off in Big Bang, and I ran out today after work to treat myself to it. Then, disaster struck!

There were 2 Big Bangs left and BOTH had broken seals

I asked the girl working the cosmetics counter and she rather nonchalantly replied, "it's fine, we'd never let anyone use a product".  I asked her if I could look and see if it had been used and she said yes, so I opened it. The inner tube had ZERO product on it when I first opened it, which made me think it hadn't been used.. I pulled the wand all the way out and immediately got product on it. 

What do you think?  Is it safe, or should I return it?  I panicked and bought it because she said they wouldn't get anymore for a month!  I think I'm mostly convinced it'll be OK, but I wanted to ask you ladies for your opinions!

I'd say it hadn't been used then. I bought seven and each one that I opened would make the liquid fill at the top! So if there was none, then I don't think it was used!

Thank you!!  I used it and I didn't spontaneously combust, so I'm ok thus far..hahah. 

 
I am ALWAYS so late posting pics lol.....but I figured a bunch of you wouldn't mind seeing what some of these colors look like on!

So here is my dramatic interpretation of APOCALIPS (PIC HEAVY, BE WARNED)

STARGAZER - Always with a twinkle in her eye (and on her lips)



NUDE ECLIPSE - a very obscure individual, with a little bit of a dark side



LUNA - bright, whimsical and maybe a liiiiittle bit Lune-ey (yes, yes I know it's spelled looney)



NOVA - full of life and spirit, nova is your go-to girl



APOCALYPTIC -  get it her way...and there will be destruction and catastrophe....seriously....just don't do it.



STELLAR - the star of any show (and life), this fierce, feisty piece of work is a hand-full (but the star of handfulls, of course)



BIG BANG - awe-inspiring and classic, the most powerful color that stirs emotion, from beginning to end, she captures imagination

OMG.. Thank you for doing this and also.. Darn you!  Now I want Luna and Nude Eclipse, too!  Ack!

I got Big Bang because I didn't think I'd like any of the others, but they look so pretty on you!

I'm loving Apocalyptic, Stellar, and Big Bang. Yep, I must be in the mood for the dramatic ones. Plus, I love how these look with fair skin.
 
Love this thread!

I embarked on Mission: Apocalips this evening and lucked in to an almost full display at the Walgreen's near my mother's house. I picked up Solstice, Galaxy, Apocaliptic, and Out of This World. I ripped the plastic off of Solstice as soon as I got in my car and put it on. To. Die. For.

It was all I could do not to jump back out of the car and go snatch up all of the rest. I will definitely stop by again tomorrow to pick up Stellar and Aurora.

Wow these look great. I hope I can find these when I'm in the states on the weekend. I have my eye on Nova, Apocalyptic and Stellar.

Haha, thank you ladies! I had much, too much fun with them. They really are fantastic, I could go on and on about them!  and YES sleepykat, I agree, they are awesome shades for fair skin! Actually most of shades I think would be gorgeous on a wide variety of skin tones.

 
I was down in San Diego this weekend and I stopped at a Walgreens to buy some snacks and I couldn't help myself, I had to look for the Rimmel display and to my surprise it was full! I HAD to buy "big bang" since I loved all the other bright colors, I need help LOL

You HAD to...seriously....important business

Absolutely!

 
True to my word, I went back to Walgreens and bought Stellar and Aurora. I also picked up Celestial while I waited for the registers to come back online after a power surge.

Oooh those look so pretty on you! I really want Luna, Big Bang, and Stellar now! And probably Stargazer too.  I guess I need to go search the nearest Walgreens after my no buy for this month is over.
 
I found a FULL display in Mason, OH. Just a little north of Cincinnati! I picked up Solstice, Apocalyptic, and Celestial.
