Just Shell Pearl. The lippies are perm so I can get them any time (not that I'm really interested in any of the colours) and none of the e/s are that special imo. Perhaps except for Altered State. But if we're talking purple e/s I'd rather get the Archie quad.

And here is another swatch. This pulls more orange on me, too peach in fact. Not sure I will keep mine or back it up. Then again, it could be good for layering over blushes to make them more peachy and shimmery...
One last thought--wasn't Cockney LE? I thought it was a pretty bright red with pearlescent shimmer. Is it perm???

As far as I know it's perm in Europe. I dunno about the US. Much as I like the colour and ADORE the snake print I'm staying away from Lustres because of the snow stuff.

I have a similar experience with SP. It turned out very orange on pale NW skin, too orange in fact. In addition, it has a lot of glitter, which tends to emphasize pores, especially in the wrong lighting. It works on stage though

I thought I was just being paranoid. You really are my skin twin, I always know you can steer me in the right direction on the face products. You must have some pink in your cheeks too?I have a similar experience with SP. It turned out very orange on pale NW skin, too orange in fact. In addition, it has a lot of glitter, which tends to emphasize pores, especially in the wrong lighting. It works on stage though

I'm a true NW. I believe you are more NW and less NC than you think

You could be right, but I was matched as NC and I do better with a lil yellow in the old foundation dept. My veins are definitely green not blue but I tend to react like you NC folks on the cheek products...I'm a true NW. I believe you are more NW and less NC than you think

It was just my best guess based on the products you like, what you say can pull off, and what you lands in your shopping cart ==> all clues lead to NW
I'm a pretty good matcher for foundations, but I haven't seen you in person, so you are the better judge

Glitter? Oh, that takes it off my list. I was hoping for another variant on Marilyn. I think I'm set in the highlighter department and it sounds like that's what this really is. More money saved!I have a similar experience with SP. It turned out very orange on pale NW skin, too orange in fact.

Aw man, glitter is not what I wanted read about Shell Pearl's description. Do you think it could work on NW20 with red/pink undertones?I have a similar experience with SP.
