You're welcome, and yes, at most it lightens the color very slightly. I only did a single coat of RC though. I didn't want to use it up on multiple coats on a plastic wheel right now.

I think my favorites are having it over the two Chanel Blues and Illamasqua Blow. For some reason, over Blow, it reminds me of the top of a cupcake. I get really hungry looking at it.

Same here. I want to gift one of mine that I haven't used yet and I'll be repurchasing it when she opens again. But deep down I know it'll be a different bottle and it's driving me nuts

I think it's called being anal retentive.

When I was a kid and read babysitters club books I had to scrap my collection and start over when they changed all the covers. They didn't match anymore.

I'm getting where you both come from, lol. My dh and mom laugh at me because I want EVERYTHING Symmetrical. Once, when we were planting some bushes and flowers I was all out of whack because the plants/flowers were not EXACT on each side of the mailbox. My mom, who volunteers as a guide for the the Arboretum, and works with all the Prairie plants/flowers looked at me and said, 'Lauri, get over it, Mother Nature is NOT symmetrical!!"
I'm getting(a little) better!!

^yes, you ARE crazy, but that's a different issue (sorry, it was right there...I had to)

you're right though...TGP's bottle looks darker than mine. lynnderella did say the formulas can very from batch to batch.
