I know that Shu lipstick is nice, superb colors, great staying power, doesnt dry lips (unlike MAC). But I just can make myself buy one with its ugly packaging. Shu should be able to do better packaging with such a high price.

I actually think they look kinda sexy… and after reading your description of the actual lipstick, Pia, I only want them more 🙂
