That's odd, my SA said they were permanent. And she'd just gotten back from training. 

[dioradict]

My SA said its permanent too, as I wanted to get Siren Blue & Burnished copper plus couple more patent lipsticks later after I get the quads. She would have told me if its LE to get it right away and she also went to Training in LA 🙂

Different blogs have reported different things.

I believe Really Ree said they were permanent, but I think both Beautylookbook and Temptalia said they were told LE by PR.

Thanks, too many new items to keep track of!

Looking for advice on some L&Bs.

Which lipstick would you recommend out of Alex, Rocco, and Kingston? I am leaning toward Kingston as it is slightly darker, but the sheen on Rocco looks very pretty. 

Should I purchase Theo if I already have Liam?

I have and love Tomas, and people say it's very similar to Hiro, so should I go with Roberto?

What color is Eric? Online swatches seem all over the place. 

[Libellules]

Theo and Liam are different! I find Theo warmer and the formula is much, much better 🙂

[lnum]

Thank you! I will pick up Theo afterall then. 😄

[Mochapj]

Do you have Bite 010?  

Theo ended up being identical to this on me.  

[lnum]

Ah I do have 010 actually, darn...I was all trigger happy too, lol. 

[Mochapj]

Here we go, obviously YMMV:

Spoiler

Theo is the bottom of those 3.

And this is 010.

[lnum]

They look great on you! And yes, very similar, although 010 has a slightly different finish. I guess I'll report back once I get them. I don't mind having both as traveling with my L&Bs is so much easier, and the TF formula lasts much longer on me than the Bite. 

[Libellules]

Well, FWIW, I found 010 to have a different finish (and formula) than Theo. But Mocha and I have different coloring 🙂

[lnum]

Ah I went with Kingston, Theo, and Roberto! Done! 

[Mochapj]

I can only answer a couple of these.

Tomas/Hiro - I've seen swatches from Temptalia and from someone on BT who owns both and they really look near identical.  I would go Roberto.

Eric is a rose gold, and some of them are really heavy on the shimmer.

Liam and Theo are pretty similar, but the finish is different  IMO, so I guess it depends what sort of finish you prefer?

[lnum]

Thank you! I'll go with Roberto, and Eric is out. If I ever run low on Tomas, I will consider buying Hiro.

[Mochapj]

If you ever run low on Tomas, they make it in big size too (Sunset Blvd) 😉

[lnum]

I love the mini-size, though, perfect for travel! Also, I wouldn't mind having an excuse to buy a new color that is ever so slightly different. 😉

Temptalia's review of Starry Night is up today.

She did not seem impressed with it either.

[meganlisa]

I thought it was lovely but the blue (mine) was patchy and I had a hard time getting it to apply evenly.

But the shades are beautiful.

[lachaton]

I find she's usually unimpressed with TF quads. Which I can understand - she does a good job of explaining why in her reviews.

But it is one of the situations where I need to take her reviews with a grain of salt, because I just seem to have a different experience with mine. 

But the Starry Night review does give me pause... I'm really iffy on this one!

[Anonymous]

I often wonder whether she's more critical at higher purchase points? Does she mention anything of that sort in her posts?
