Hi all, I created a MAC Fashion Sets swatch thread to archive your swatches from this collection. I know we haven't been great about putting these up lately, but I'm working on getting this resource back on track and would love to see your swatches there! :)

Thanks so much that is very very helpful! I have and love TT, so a matte version would be amazing:) I guess the lipliner wouldn't hurt either. I have used LS for TT, but I would like something that matches even better. Woohoo I'm so excited for Ablaze now

Back to EM, it is most definitely different than DLG. There's obvious purple in DLG that isn't in EM at all!

I'm someone else, but i'll butt in. I like a little shimmer on my cheek bones, although i prefer my blush colors a bit subtle - no hot pinks or bright oranges for me. I felt that Orgasm was pretty, but both too metallically shiny and too strongly colored for me, so i passed on it. I bought Deep Throat - the color is similar to O, but a bit tamer and it has a bit of shimmer, but soooooo much less that O. I find it much more wearable. I don't know if it would still be too shimmery for your preference. I'd say it's worth a swatch test.
lol No need to feel like your butting in.. I accept recommendations and advice from all... I don't mind a very subtle sheen or shimmer, but chunks of glitter or overly shimmery products isn't my cup of tea.. The only shimmery metallic things i'll wear is eyeshadow tho. I dn't mind a very soft highlight that gives a "glowy effect"... THANK YOU now I want Deep Throat even more

Thank you soooooooo much for the swatches, erin! They all look gorgeous! :eyelove: I could not believe I was up late last night. I managed to order Ablaze lipstick and lip glass. I'm glad I did! Feel better soon, erin! :hug: What is SC and NO?  :blush:
So Chaud and Neon Orange
From your swatches Embrace Me looks closest to Quick Sizzle. What do you think?
QS is definitely darker. A good 3 shades darker.

They are almost the exact same colour, with TT being a bit darker. And of course the finish is different. If you missed out on TT, get ablaze and add a bit of gloss, unless you want it matte ;) Ablaze pencil is a bit darker, but unless you're one that needs matching pencils, you can get away with using LS. It's just a bit lighter and a slightly different shade.
Oh no! I really wanted Ablaze but I already have TT :( And I prefer satins over mattes anyway.. I think I'm only getting Heroine now. But I really hope Fashion Sets will be sold online in Holland because I'm not going to Amsterdam on a Saturday morning for 1 freaking lipstick. Thanks for the swatches!

Thanks so much, i won't be getting heroine ls, just a bit tooo purple for me, but I'm gonna get the liner to make my purple/pinks lean a bit more purple. And i think you make have just talked me back into giving ablaze a chance!.

If you missed out on TT, get ablaze and add a bit of gloss, unless you want it matte ;) Heroine is definitely more purple than than magenta, which is more, well, magenta. And yes, the textures are WAAAY different! Heroine is smooth and buttery, magenta is most definitely not that!

It sort of reminds me of something, can't put my finger on it though. I dont really see it as being the lipglass version of heroine
No me neither. It sort of has the same color family as Hot House. With the sparkle in it being very similar. The colors bases are obviously way different.
