I believe erine mentioned they were practically the same color
I think she said they were in the same color family, so if you don't need multiple colors like these, I'd say skip it. But if you like these colors, I think they will be different enough to own both. They are different finishes too so they may appear different on the lips. That's why I'll be getting it.

I just talked with my MUA and she said this collection will come out on May 10th in Korea. I hope her info is right.
If it is, I'll post some swatches of lipsticks I will get.

I want Flamingo, Sushi Kiss and Sweet & Sour.
I'm still thinking whether I'll get TD since I already have SLN and they look similar even if they have different textures.

Btw, does Tarte & Trendy look like a sheer version of Morange b/c it looks a hint of red and is redder than TD to me?

The lustres that were new with Heavenly Creatures are my idea of perfection - Cusp of Dawn is one of my top nudes and Venus is one of the few soft pinks that works well on me. Flamingo was another great lustre. Meanwhile, stuff from before 2012, like Cut A Caper, just do not work on me at all - they look almost crumbly on my lips. I really wanted the Carine Roitfeld nude to be good for me too, but it was just the wrong shade so I didn't get it, but it certainly had the good new lustre style. Sometimes I'll wear a heavier layer of Sheer Mandarin, but only for going out at night. I do a blotted layer then a heavier layer on top.  Totally off topic, but it's in the same color range, so I'll bring it up anyways: Warm Companion!! It was one of my favorites from Apres Chic and now that it's sunnier out, it looks even better. It has this unique moist sparkle in the sunlight. I only wish I had 10 pairs of lips to wear all these things all the time!
Oh I hate cut a caper,not the color but the formula. My lips have to be in top shape for me to wear this. But glad I am almost through with it. I did not get a luster lipstick after that one although there were such amazing colors that came after that. Maybe I will try one this time probably flamingo but someone mentioned that betty bright is the same color but different formula if that is right probably will not get it either cause the color just does not suit me.

Flamingo is much easier for me to wear than BB. They are similar in color but with one being satin and the other being a lustre you get a different effect. But I suppose you can just add gloss on top of BB and see how that works for you. I bought BB in hopes of duping flamingo but I still prefer flamingo much more. I can throw it on and be good to go. I can't do that with BB.

I definitely love all of the lipsticks ahh this is going to be so hard to pick a few but I definitely don't need them all! I won't get neon orange or razzledazzler for sure just because I never liked either of them. I totally will be getting flamingo because I missed it last time and the others I will pick the ones that best suit my skin tone
 
That's gorgeous! I'm getting anxious. Better get sleep now so I can be prepared for stalking. Thanks for sharing!!!
No problem . Lol I know right?! Now that swatches are trickling in I'm def getting more excited. I just wanna see how sweet&sour looks like now and the 2 new blushes and I can start cutting down my list.

Sushi Kiss looks gorgeous! I will definitely be getting that, and maybe Sweet & Sour also.

Did we ever settle the Royal Sunset versus Honey Jasmine confusion? I seem to recall swatches that looked opposite of the descriptions. So the Royal Sunset description seemed to match the color of the Honey Jasmine swatch, and vice versa. I hope that gets settled before we place our orders! If everything was labeled correctly and the descriptions were just way off though (as we all know is entirely likely with some of MAC's past color descriptions), then Royal Sunset is my must have from this collection. Maybe even x2
