@Karen: How close in color are Cassis & Raisin? From the descriptions, it sounds like they might be pretty similar. TIA!!

The new ones are not plumpers. However, I am pretty sure a plumper or two will be in the plans if everyone likes the Butter Creams.

No plumping this time...mainly because I was waiting to see what you thought of the gumballs. If it's something that's actually working we'll release some.
@Selki- Cassis is a bit lighter and more purple- sort of if Fig Leaf and Raisin had a love child.

I think it's going in the wrong direction, and the technology is advancing so quickly that I'm hoping petroluem products become obsolete- sooner rather than later.
I totally agree with that hope!! And I wouldn't be buying the lippies if they had petroluem products in them...so thank you for not adding them into your products! :D

And it's so great you are donating both to the clean up effort on the Gulf, and to the troops. I'm a military brat and have family and friends all along the Gulf area...so both are close to my heart right now.

Oh, and....YAY!! New lippies!! *happy dance* Can't wait to get a hold of Shrieking Violet!

I'll be checking on the swatches on a real monitor soon (on phone now), but I can see how most of them will end up in my cart... Good excuse to get rid of older things I don't need or are too old to swap ;)
I would also like to be part of the good deed you're dedicating your products too!

Question: are the older liquids getting repackaged and adopted to the new formula? My Modern Poet is starting to smell a but funky, and was wondering if I should wait to get it to get the new packaging.
Karen wrote: haven't figured out what I'm going to do with the old liquid glosses, or the balms either. I figured I'd give the new formulas a month or so to sort themselves out, and see if you like them, and then make a final decision. Kisser Slickers, the Vegan sticks, and Black Labels are staying the same though. Black Labels will eventually wind themselves down when I run out of apricot wax, but I'm hoping that someone will come out with a suitable replacement before that time.
DUH :D Thanks for pointing that out!

Uhhm. I hate to ask since I already ordered this morning but I'm curious. What about Stockholm? If it would have been there this morning, it would have found it's way to the cart, no doubt.
