@Sunnysmom Oh noooo I couldn’t reply to your post here before it disappeared! And I wasn’t able to find the thread you cross-posted on (sorry!) so I’ll just quickly say I loved your swatches, 💕as always!💕Thanks for the notes about the liquid being a warm-toned red. I’ve realized I’m into more blue-toned reds after buying my first Lancôme Rouge in Love years ago and thinking it was too warm for me. Anyway, that means these GXVE bullets will be right up my alley since they lean blue based hehe 😊

[Sunnysmom]

Hmm ok @Guessgal I’ll post them here. Thank you, it was on a March haul 🥰. I found them to be true blue reds except the liquid which turned warmer on me. They can tend to do that on me tho I read a few reviews saying same.They’re so pretty! Saturated and smooth as is the smoky eye quad. Want to try the eyeliner next. It felt very smooth in store and lasted on my hand forever! ( I didn’t get gratis yet nor know if I will but enjoy these when you do! 💞).  Thanks for this fun thread @niki172 ! 😘

@Sunnysmom ,

These are great swatches!  You were the early bird to buy these so quickly.  Definitely tempting!

[Sunnysmom]

Aww thank you @tsavorite , my poor little brain just seems to have a red lippie radar! 🤦🏻‍♀️😖😂

[quspork]

Great swatches, @Sunnysmom!

[Sunnysmom]

Thanks @quspork , I’m so impressed with her products so far! 

[Buootiful]

Those reds look gorgeous @Sunnysmom. 😍

[Sunnysmom]

If you wear reds @Buootiful I know you’ll love them! 

[niki172]

Awesome swatches @Sunnysmom those reds are stunning!!!! I especially like the one swatched near the eyeshadows (I think they're all the same color of red almost so IDK why I'm drawn to it lol!). If you get the eyeliner please let me know what you think 🤗.

[Sunnysmom]

BAM, right @niki172  😂 ?! Yes they’re all Original Recipe shade top to bottom : liquid, satin and matte so it’s the matte one you like 🥰. I bet the liner is strong too, I’ll let you know if I try it!
