Lime Crime Geradium lipstick swatches

I got the new Lime Crime Geradium lipstick in yesterday. It's described at a vivid coral-pink.






 I just could not get the picture to reflect the brightness of the lipstick. The swatch on the website doesn't even show how bright it showed up on me. This picture below from the Lime Crime's tumblr was more accurate, though not quite as shiny. It definitely looks more neon.

I read some things on the internet where people were wondering how it compared to MAC's Viva Glam Nicki and Force of Love. I also just got one of the new Milani Color Statement lipsticks in Flamingo Pose and it looked like a similar color to Force of Love, so I thought I'd swatch those with Geradium to see how they compare.

In the tube, Viva Glam Nicki was closest and the other two were quite a bit darker. Swatched, Nicki was closest in color but not nearly as bright. Force of Love and Flamingo Pose were both less pink, but were on the same level of brightness. Flamingo Pose had a similar finish. So it didn't look like anything was an exact dupe.
