I love cream soda on you. I love it on everyone. that never happens.

Does anyone know if cheers my dear similar to the pink crushed pigment from the tenderly warm set in the guilty passionspassions collection? TIA. Tempted to get both betty pigments since I got both veronicas

Not even close...the pink in that is very metallic and to me, it looks almost like a coral pink...Cheers My Dear is so much better, a pretty frosted lilac pink.

 

[BlissfullyYours]

Very, Very pretty!!! You're making me want to go get prom princess and Flatter Me now lol

Awww, Thank you MissBeautyBunni! Lol! I'm glad I feed the ID aka the makeup lover. Lol.

I think PP just restocked at Nordies and I'm not sure about Flatter Me. It was sold out at MAC the other day when I looked.

Why would anybody put make up on a baby? Are those parents sniffing glue or what?

I'd be very surprised if glue's the only thing they're sniffing

Any fundamental objections to putting slap on 6-month olds aside (who am I to judge?), I'm amazed that the kid kept still long enough for the solvent abusing parent to put on the e/s. The little critters usually wriggle around like mad.

I'm wearing DLG today! I like it!

Ahhh, I gotta try this on today! BTW, Team Natural!! Woooo
Is it really bright?? or a muted pink? (Hence, is it anything like Pink Pigeon because that color is TOO crazy for me.) But do your thang miss "I LOVE NEON" =] BTW we have the same Foundation Match! I'm gonna follow you.

Messy hair and in PJs. I always get my face ready first! Here's what DLG looks like on me. Btw.. This is my first ever post with my pic. Not much of a picture taker

These appear to be the same to me--I'm assuming you mean the one that was called "Cheers my Dear' in the little charm set?

Cheers my dear is the the betty pigment. Thnk you

I was finally able to locate a bu of Ronnie red thanks to a sales associate at Macy's! And also cream soda since I missed it the first time. They should be getting delivered next week, I'm so excited! Oh and after much thought I decided to buy the Betty pigment in lucky in love, was able to score the last one yay!!

DLG looks perfect on you

So my Cream Soda blush arrived today and in the pan it looks JUST like Legendary. But once swatched on my fingers Cream Soda seemed more pigmented and slightly orange-er. It also seemed chalkier than Legendary, Legandary looked more satiny and glowy on my finger. I don't regret picking up Cream Soda because its a shade I love to wear and I'm sure it'll look a bit stronger on my cheeks than Legendary

Since everyone is posting their DLG pics I guess I'll join in on the fun.

Sorry I didn't post whole face shots, my skin is such a mess right now.

DLG w/ MAC Magenta l/l & a dab of clear lipglass:





I'm really liking this lipstick. I think I like it better than all the other pinks in my collection including my much loved Moxie. I hardly ever do backups but I think I may have to pick up another one of these.

 

[BlissfullyYours]

Does anyone have any swatches for Cream Soda/ Veronica's Blush PM Kiss and Don't Tell on NC50 skin? (or any of the foundations listed below)

 

[bluelitzer]

Today I am wearing Prom Princess (applied lightly with a MAC 187), full opaque Pink Pigeon on the lips and Whisper of Gilt as a highlighter just on top of Prom Princess and a light wash of Brule on the lid+barely there Wedge on the crease finished with eyeliner and mascara. Not overpowering and very spring!

Would someone be able to swatch Absolute Power and Ronnie Red side by side please? If possible, someone with fair or medium skintone. Thanks! I bought AP because it looked pinker in T's swatches, but then I swatched RR in Selfridges on Sunday and it seemed so pink. I didn't have time to swatch AP as well, so would appreciate it if someone could help me. Do I need RR as well as AP?

From left to right:

Ronnie Red, Absolute Power, and Love Goddess

(I tried taking the pictures in diff. lighting, I apologize for the quality of my photo's)

Based on my hand swatches, I think they're all different enough to own them all. I'm not sure if their difference comes across the photo's but in person, I can see the difference.

Ronnie Red and Absolute Power could probably be in the same color family, but they're not the same shade.

I actually haven't worn Ronnie Red so I'm not sure how it looks once applied to my lips, but I do know that Absolute Power pulls more pink on me.

 

[MissBeautyBunni]

Ronnie Red came out Gorgeous for you!!!!!

Ronnie Red... LOVE
