OMG seeing all these swatches has made my list grow exponentially!!!!!! Thank-you to everyone in the EU & UK for posting your swatches, dupes, and comparisons for us in North America! It is much appreciated

They are quite similar, but OG has a sort of greeny duochrome thing going on?!? It's very pretty but I find e/s easier than pigments! May still go back for it though...

Thanks, I think I'll stick with Barefoot too. Thanks for the tip on Indianwood.

I love the "antique" effect that you get with OG. I find OG quite easy to work with (I assume that the HS OG performs similar to the regular OG).
For those who are into antique shades, OG is a must-buy.

I'll probably buy another one to get the HS packaging.

I do not have Grain, but I think MacKarrie posted a comparison with Grain.

Launch Away kind of looks like Well Dressed, are they similar?

WD is way more pink, whereas LA is more peach-based.

I just got back from amsterdam. The stripes in Crew are NOT an overspray. The MA could confirm it because she asked it at her update. Also some parts of the tester were flat already and still showed the same stripes. Yeah for mac not doing overspray again!
The goodies that came home with me are:
-both blushes
-Crew
-Sun Dipped pro longwear bronzer
-Jaunty and Feeling Fresh e/s
-Emerald Sea e/p
-Shore Leave l/l
-To Catch a Sailor and Sail La Vie l/s
-Blessedly Rich and Riviera Life l/g
I also asked about the difference between the pro longwear and normal bronzers. The pro longwear bronzers have sunseed oil (i think that's what it was) and that makes them softer and easier to blend. They also last longer (like we didn't expect that
). I swatched one of the normal bronzers and after that one of the pro longwear bronzers. I could definitely feel that the pro longwear one was softer and it smoothed out a lot better on my hand.
I didn't take pictures at the event, it was too crowded, but i couldn't post them anyway till sunday. I will swatch my own goodies and try to post pictures sunday afternoon. I might go to my local counter monday and swatch the other things, but i'm not sure if i have enough time monday.

Yay! What a lovely list! Hope you had fun! Good news about Crew. My first Reel Sexy ? Hey, Sailor order will probably arrive on Monday. I will go to Amsterdam tomorrow but since I found out that the discount isn't given here I doubt I will haul many HS items. I will see tomorrow, otherwise I will place a second order tomorrow.I just got back from amsterdam. The stripes in Crew are NOT an overspray.

They do look <3 indeed. Looking forward to receiving them. Not only am I happy about these swatches, knowing I made the right decision ordering them, I am also very happy that Pinkdollface has seen Crew doesn't have an overspray. Nice bonusHibiscus is my all time summer HG l/s.I will get Sail La Vie if I don't have the backups of Hibiscus. LOL Thank you for the comparison, Princesa Livia!

Thanks i had a lot of fun! Also i went to the pro store as well and i found the 184 duo fiber fan brush. I thought it was discontinued, but they still had it! I'm not sure what i can use it with, but i was thinking about the naturally blushes and maybe it's nice with bronzer of highlighter. Any input on this is appreciatedYay! What a lovely list! Hope you had fun! Good news about Crew. My first Reel Sexy ? Hey, Sailor order will probably arrive on Monday.

I also got refills for Juxt and Coral e/s. I know Juxt is discontinued and i think Coral as well, so i'm glad i could get both of those too.I hope you get your order soon!
