That's my list too >_< I'm skipping the lighter ones because I don't think they would do anything more than act like a highlight on my skin. I'd love to see some swatches on dark skin tones.

Re: woc-sonic chic
Before I went to see these in person I wanted Nuance and Gentle, maybe Lovejoy too.
On seeing them, I didn't get one. I felt that Nuance hardly showed up and it just looked like nude shimmer. It also looked a bit like Gingerly colour wise...and I have that already.
Gentle....ok but nothing special about it. I had to layer it a few times to get payoff too. I was really disappointed. I think though for once I was using my head and being smart by realising that I had no real need for them because they aren't that different in effect from other blushes that I have.
But I'd like to see swatches on other WOC....

I'm a NC50 / NW45 & I got Merrily, Love Thing & Gleeful which I adore, I'm considering getting backups even though you don't need to use much product.
I posted up swatches the other day

What did you think of Lovejoy? This one interests me. I'm NC40.
I was thinking of Nuance too...but it sounds like that one isn't going to show up too well. I always hope to like the "light" ones but am always worried they won't show up - and usually, I have to order without seeing.
So, I'm thinking these:
- Merrily
- Love Joy
- Love Thing
- Gleeful (?) or Gentle (?)
I really only want 3 of them at most...so, please help me pare down!

i was a bit adamant about a few of these, but honestly they all look gorgeous. i got merrily, love joy & nuance in the store today then i ordered pleasantry, dainty, gentle & warm soul online.
when i swatched them in the store i wanted all of them, but in an effort to show restraint i only bought 3. i still had the swatches on my hand long after i left the store and they looked so pretty i couldn't resist. i love these blushes & i love msf so why not? they are so much better that regular blushes.
i didn't get two of them [they were both pretty, just not what i was looking for]: love thing [too dark] and gleeful [too similar to merrily, on my skin atleast].
