OK, here's some comparison swatches on NC30/35
Just trying to show the brightness of SN for those who are wondering if they "need" it. I think Azalea (MAC PRO Pan blush from my girl Shellcat! Thanks babe!) is a gorgeous bright pink blush. NOT an exact dupe, but probably would look close to SN's pink on the cheek. Add some golden shimmer and I think it would be close to SN for those that can't get it. My real point is, that I personally didn't "need" SN since I have Azalea. I can make Azalea work as a bright pink blush if that's what I'm going for. And I can add or leave out the golden shimmer. SN is very pretty though, and I'm happy I have it. But not a "must have" in my personal collection.
L-R: Salsarose, Supernova, Azalea, Fleet Fast, Early Morning
If I don't find Supernova I may go for Salsarose! It's even prettier IMO...
Yeah...you're pretty much AWESOME!!!! for sending me THAT BLUSH TOOOOOOOOO! ISalsarose IS gorgeous! I have it and adore that shade!
Azalea is VERY close to Supernova!! AND Azalea is wayyyy more pigmented and versatile IMO! Since you can add the golden sheen SN has or leave it out if you prefer! If you have Azalea I don't think you "NEED" Supernova. I can't imagine being able to tell the difference on the actual face...Thank you sweets!
Yes, Azalea looks very close on our skintone! I asked about it on here but someone said it was not similar to them. But your swatches confirm they are damn close, and that is enough for me!
Thank you, doll!!
Salsarose has always been on my list, but I'm too lazy to make the trek to the Pro store. I agree, I love it more than Supernova, which I finally decided to skip.If I don't find Supernova I may go for Salsarose! It's even prettier IMO...
that's what I am doing! lol I tried to pick one up at pro two weeks ago and it was sold out. This is a MAC pro staple blush, that I have yet to acqire. Soon though.If I don't find Supernova I may go for Salsarose! It's even prettier IMO...
glad you love them!So I finally used my Earthshine (as a blush). Gorgeous! I used the Ecotools finishing brush and it worked just fine. This is my first MSF so I'm glad I took the plunge. I also adore Stratus blush. Oh my goodness I could wear it every day, but I try to rotate. I'm glad the 2 look nothing alike on my cheeks because I really do like them both. I can't wait to use Earthshine as a shadow.
Jennstar, Ur pictures were breathtaking! I hope u got both colors because u look flawlessy beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Enjoy ur goodies.Thank you Pixie! I've lurked on the site for years but never had the courage to show my face. See you around the forums!!
oooh, are you going to share a pic of your pretty swirls?!Got my replacement Star Wonder today & thankfully it is beautiful! Its got a big ol plummy blob in the center with a nice plum & pink ring around it. Glad this one made it in one piece.
oooh, are you going to share a pic of your pretty swirls?!
Oy, I'm obsessed!
I can't wait for my orders to arrive! This is how excited I am ----->LOL.
Unfortunately I think both of you are out of luck. Supernova is fuchsia—the gold you see is only shimmer—and RoS is unavoidably terracotta.I want to get a SW with a lot of the plum color and a RoS without too much red.
