A deeper, more opaque version of "Electra"...

I did order some plums today, and maybe this will get answered when the order arrives but I think my "dream" missing shade would be something that:

1)Is an ALG (I love these and having small lips I appreciate them!)

AND

2)Has the exact same glitter/shimmer tonality as Electra, (that wonderful pink/purple/copper gives a really natural look I think - it's one of my favourites to wear) .....but the base would be deeper, more opaque and more dramatic for fall, perhaps a bit more of a black cherry-plum colour - stopping short of 100% opaque though, so that it's not quite as heavy?

Have you considered a lip stain under it? Doll or Roxie, or maybe even Vamp might work.

Hehe, you read my mind - I ordered "Vamp" for that very reason! :lol:

Hoping it will give me the effect I'm going for. Glad it got added to the stains!
