Hmm IF is the darkest one.. On my NC15 skin its beautyfull. Think the light colors are a little to light.. Wish they had a Modern Mandarin color again.. Think i go for a nice peachy Illamasqua blush. Sushi Kiss is stil on my list.
I'm debating on the blushes too. I'm nc25 and don't know if these will be too pale for my liking. I just bought illamasqua

Temptalia received Temperature Rising PR samples about two weeks before the launch so I'm hoping she will get some AAO samples this week so we can see her swatches soon!

Same for first two, already have flamingo and on nc35 it doesn't look that great on me..thinking of picking up razzledazzler instead this time around..
I was afraid of that with flamingo... Dang... It looks gorgeous on lighter skin tones... Oh well probably a pass! Thanks for the heads up. I may check out meltcosmetics summer l/s that comes out Friday first and decide from there what I need

honestly still don't understand what all the hype was about with flamingo.. I can never get it to look good on me, it looks nice in the tube but on my lips it looks blah.. could be a fault of my darker pigmented lips tho.. oh well glad I cud help

After seeing swatches I'm thinking the same thing. I've got the lippies you listed on my list with SS as a maybe. Razzledazzler is at my CCO so I can pick that up anytime. Are your lips pigmented brown or pink or red or ???
I'm really thinking I won't be able to order this online and will have to go into a store and try them because my lips are very pigmented (like a mauve-y color) and I have very olive skins tone so idk what the heck will work and what won't... TR collection was a no brainer for me but this may be a pass

ah wish we had a cco here in Canada .. my upper lip is pigmented brown and the bottom is pink with brown outline. maybe that's why it looks off on me..now im thinking If may have the same issue with ss and rdazzler.. I need to see swatches on darker tones or go try it out in person which means skipping out on buying online only to find out its sold out in stores!

I may be able to get by with just Sushi Kiss and Sweet & Sour! I hope! I will need a break in between TR and TT!

Still thinking all I want from this collection is Sushi Kiss and Royal Sunset.  Sweet & Sour is on my maybe list.  I could use a small haul like that to recover in between TR and TT!
My exact list too! :) but thinking about the grey quad. I don't think I have any gray shadows. Would love to see more swatches of it.

Thats the same reason why the only two items on my list have been Flamingo (I dont have it) and Sushi kiss (only satin) from the start...I tried to get myself to like the blushes but they all look sooo boring and way too light...TT and Rihanna will get all my money

Me either, I don't know what it is but I am always fiddling with it.
