Same thing happened to me.
The sample was more beige with copper shimmer, and the full size I ordered started out really red. Like it went on beige, then turned really red. I gave it about a week, and now when I put it on it is more beige like the sample, but not really any of that coppery color.
I decided I liked how it looks now, so I'm going to keep it, but next time I'm in store I'm going to check out the display of this color. I'm wondering if the sample was mislabeled on that color. There is a blogger who swatched the collection on skin and her lips, I need to go find that and see how it was for her.
I also have an unopened sample of the color...thinking of taking that with me to compare against the display too, see if it really was mislabeled or if the full sizes were bad batches even.
Also, try swirling the brush around inside the tube a lot for a few days. Since it has shimmer, maybe they are just "stuck" in the bottle more than the sample. (if you haven't done this already that is.)

Glad I'm not the only one. I am pretty sad about this. I really want that coppery color! Not that the one I received is bad, per say, it's just not as good. Please let me know if you go to the store and figure out if its another color (also if you find that blog link). I was thinking of going to the store too but getting there is pretty hard for me since i'm at my office nearly 24-7.
I hope #103 comes like the sample because I REALLY liked that color.... I tried it and ordered it later so it should come sometime this week.
i thought glossy stains have a reputation for changing color after you apply it..? generally it gets darker than in the tube.
