Not a fan of the lipstick finishes either but I would like to try flamingo since it looks so pretty on everyone and Sushi Kiss (because it is a satin) and a couple blushes....more of a fall collections kinda gal

I know. I was planning to use restraint via the formulas, but then you went and posted pics. My mind immediately left the building for all the pretty colors.
Okay. You're right. Cremesheens and Lustres. Not much coverage and lasting power. Soooo skip the Lustres?

eta: $hit I can't. That's half the lippies LOL I'd lose Flamingo and Razzledazzler (which I committed to after being visually assaulted while googling swatches). I'm team all lipsticks right now. Orange is a confident color for me. Except NO they all seem so work-friendly that I feel like I'm justified since I can't do these hot pinks in my stash.
MissTT, this time I will allow myself to be an enabler and agree that there are cremesheens and lustres I don't like, which let too much of my natural lip color come through in a bad way and feel drying, BUT there are good ones out there that are seriously excellent, like Flamingo (and that's not a color I can normally pull off, either), with tons of color payoff which are really buildable and controllable - I'd get so many different looks out of Flamingo, it was great - blotted, super shiny, etc. etc. I actually lost mine and have been glum about it, so yep, it's getting bought'ed here.

My main thing will be to try everything on, because a bad cremesheen looks yuck on me and a bad lustre is just pointless, no matter how nice the colors. I do think they all work great on young lips/young skin, but yeah, I'm not in that category lol.

It's a good thing i buy BUs. I just remembered that IF was one of the blushes my sister took from me when she was here visiting last summer. Hmph.

I was a little on the fence with Flamingo - it's one of those colors that doesn't work all year on me, plus it felt a little too youthful on me (and I normally don't take that attitude). Then of course, I got a little tanner as the spring turned to summer, and it started looking better and better on me and boom I was wearing it all the time and then poof!

Now, Sweet & Sour has just that extra bit of yellow that is going to fix all the quibbling little issues I had with Flamingo. BUs will be B.U'ed!! I love how this collection is like a nudes collection "pick your perfect poison".

Edit: Also, your sister better be using that IM like a fiend, for snatching it like that.

Now, based on the colour descriptions, I'd say these are swatched in the wrong spot. But if you go by the names, they match, so...:dunno:
