Maybe try it in person to be sure you like the product. S/t are only tinted, they do not provide opaque coverage.
Pigmentation on S/T won't be an issue for me. I'm treating them as strictly lip balms that I'll use while I'm doing outdoorsy things. If I want better pigmentation indoors, I'll grab a LS or LG.

For me it is also about the SPF. Any tint or shimmer is an added bonus.

I got a sneak peek at my favorite counter today. I was pretty on track with what I wanted. I only made one change and that was to add Au Rose to my order. I am like MAC Guy when it comes to products with SPF (and sparkle is a bonus).

I was also able to try the new bronzers. I had my heart set on either Soft Sand or Nude on Board but they were just wrong on me. Not attractive at all. I was going to walk away but decided to try Sun Dip since MAG Guy and I are skin twins and he likes it. It works beautifully so that will be the bronzer I get. My counter didn't get alot of them so I am glad I pre-ordered.

I've been pretty uninterested in this collection (still licking my wounds between Extra Dimension + Tres Cheek + Reel Sexy), but I'm going in to visit at my store today to check everything out. I'm only particularly interested in Salute, Riviera Life and perhaps Sail la Vie, but I'll take a good look at everything. Really just waiting for Heavenly Creature - that will be my gigantic summer haul!
Hi Liba, I know someone asked what Bronzer you & MAC guy really liked. I believe the answer was Lush Light Bronze Careblend Powder. I may be able to get my hands on one. How do you thinking will look on NC20skin??? I've never used a Bronzer before, therefore I am not sure I want to spend $ on one during my HS haul. Thank you in advance. Really looking for any NC15-20s to help to tell me how they felt about the Lush Light Bronze Careblend powder. Please help!!!

Red Racer on top of Cherry lipliner! It's the perfect summer red. I'm not wearing any other make up in this picture, so please keep that in mind.
You are so beautiful! Love the Red Racer on you, It looks great on you. Is Cherry LL pretty universal good with a variety of reds? I can't remember what u bought& can understand if u don't feel like retyping it. Did u get TCAS? If so, what LL r u using with that? Or did find TCAS washed u out? Did u get the orange lippie as well? Did u get a blush? Bronzer? Thanks Pinkdollface!

Oh wow, that looks gorgeous.. Kinda making me want to buy it - but oddly I don't really wear red lipstick so I'd feel like I'm wasting money.

I really need to NOT go into MAC stores before a collection is available. Not available (even for swatch) until tomorrow at Pro. Easy, just turn around and leave, right?

Somehow, I came out with More to Love liner, Girl About Town lipglass (I don't wear pink usually, but I got talked into stepping away from my warm corals) and with a new custom quad (Lucky Green, Electric Eel, Parfait d'Amour + one empty spot).

I'm not quite sure what happened. Something about 'you can absolutely rock this bright clear fuschia, punch of colour for summer, these shades are great for light skin dark eyes, blah blah that will be $100 please.'

Naturally, on the way back to the office I had to buy not one but TWO hot pink tops to wear with the lipglass I didn't go in to buy.

Can I say that this Hey Sailor haul is already getting expensive and I haven't even ordered anything yet???

Everybody's swatches and links are getting me enthused for the launch! Pinkdollface - red racer looks awesome on you! Do we have any thoughts so far on how it compares to Russian Red? I mean, I think I've seen swatches onarm's and what not, but what I'm wondering is do I need Red Racer if I have Russian Red? (Wink wink nod nod) Anyway, karen's swatches are making me certain of my decision not to have a feeling fresh put aside, but making me wonder also if I should just skiparoo on crew, and leave it for the cool-toned beauties out there. I'm also wondering if I need Fleet Fast if I have marine life, modern mandarin, immortal flower, amazon princess and whatsitcalled from surf baby...?
