Curious about your thoughts on these three. Thanks for swatching.
Jete: I'm pleased with it. Its not as warm as i was worried it would be. It seems like a good lid color...very shiny and good texture.

Guacamole: I'm actually happy with it...when you think about it, there really arent many soft greens out there...the texture and pigmentation is pretty nice...has a pretty gold pearl going on. I like it.

Moth Brown: seems to be the least pigmented of the 3, took more swipes to get it opaque as the others but still decent. I like the color personally...I'm not sure where the "brown" in moth brown comes in because its mostly gray with a slight shift to the blue/purple side.

The MB you got has the purple shift in it?

Thanks for this. I can't wait to see Moth Brown myself, and I am glad to hear that Jete has some warmth to it. Jete is officially on my order list. Since my Kat Von D purchase today, I am going to pass on Guac. Plus I do have a lot of greens (nothing like this one, but it seems kind of cool for me). :bouquet:

I have yet to get a naked palette and I always hear how great the colors are in there, I only ordered moth brown to try it w moxie so hopefully it works out w that and other color looks.
Yes I am dying to try MB with a purple base. Maybe it'll make up for some of the missing purple shift

Awww man! I have over 50 and still no access. Maybe I have to wait awhile?
I thought that you just had to have 50 posts and be a member for 30 days but maybe you have to be active for 30 days? Not sure, I was able to get in pretty quickly. Sorry if I'm not any help.

Dern it. What gives, MAC?

I knew I should have just gotten Electroplate instead. But there was that little evil voice whispering, "But...it's Moth Brown!"

Oh dear! We should have known that MAC will not manage to produce the exact same shade after so many years. It's still a bummer.

those moth browns are NOT the same.....If they are going to repromote/customer vote something, they need to make them the SAME...otherwise people dont really know what they are voting for

This gives me an excuse to back up my favorite items when they are released.

Thank you, Lisa! The swatches are really helpful as well! They all look nice! I cannot wait to get Moth Brown! Hope I won't have any problem with its pigmentation.

I threw Ruffian Red in my cart when I ordered my lipsticks last week and I'm really glad I did! I have a ton of reds and this one is a little more on the orange side than what I normally go for, but it really is growing on me. Even my husband commented on it...which is HUGE!

Tried on all my new lippies tonight and I am in love with CYY and Moxie! I seriously want to wear CYY every second of every day the rest of my life!

I thought I was going to love Rocker (even bought a BU of it) but I'm not sure about it. It seems a little too brown on me...
I tried taking some pictures but I think my self-portrait photo skills are definitely lacking comparing to you ladies! I'll try again maybe tomorrow because I really want everyone to see! I've had so much fun seeing how these amazing shades look on everyone and I want to contribute too!
