Thanks! Yeah, I would say my lips are a muted reddish pink color so maybe that's why? I tried to get the best natural lighting near the window to help make sure the colors were true to life.

Yay! These look so great on you!
I'm very pleased I went back for TT AND TD!! Pics taken with my iphone so I hope these are ok.
TT is very buildable for my pigmented lips. Really love this color. I don't need a liner with this so i'm really happy.
It's like someone mentioned before of it being SNL but with a sheen to it! Beautiful!
TD is the PERFECT orange nude for me. I never thought I'd have an orange nude let alone wear it.
I really like this color. It's perfect for when I want an orange but nothing to strong. I'm thinking of pairing it with chicory liner just if I need some more color or give it a boost.

REALLY had to stop myself from forcing liners on all these new orange lippies! I am ADDICTED to lip liners, but I think these shades look best on me worn alone. For example, I have Flamingo from the previous release. Thought I didn't like it at all... just didn't "do" anything for me really. Stored it away. This release had me dusting it off and just swatching it quickly on my lips, NO liner, and completely different result! Went from "MEH" to "LOVE" in a couple swipes. I was happy to grab a BU from the secret site the other day since it's a lustre and I know they go quick! (I'm looking at you Venus lippie!)
I look a little awful in this pic cause I'm sooooo sick w/ the worst cold/sinus crap EVER right now (due to all my traveling lately I imagine)... BUT that doesn't stop a TRUE makeup addict from trying her new Sushi Kiss lippie today! NC30/35 for reference.
Hope everyone scored what they wanted!!!
AND SHELLCAT... I'm going to need to see those TD & S&S lippies on you PRONTO missy! HeeHee But seriously, I do!

Alright, I'm finally heading out to my local MAC(s) to check these out. I think I'm sold on Flamingo and want to swatch everything else. And here I was thinking I was skipping this... You did it again, Specktra!

Omg, Pixie! You look great. You look so much like Taya from Rock of Love. She was my favorite! I miss that show.

That cross necklace I picked up in Vegas at a store called "charming charlie" for - NO LIE - $7.00! I liked that it was so cute and understated for days when I didn't want to think about my jewelry... (like the last few I've been so sick and poopie)! http://www.charmingcharlie.com/ Maybe you can find a store near you on this link?!

Got Flamingo and SK, and IF
Like Flamingo, SK I liked in stores but I'm like eh about it now, I don't wear light lips often so perhaps it just needs to grow on me?
IF however...is very blah. I'll try it a couple more times but I may just sell it or something.

Its been asked a couple times if the old Flamingo is like the new Flamingo. I just got the new one. I would say that the new one is just a tad pinker.

It looks a bit silkier too. Is this common for them to vary slightly?Its been asked a couple times if the old Flamingo is like the new Flamingo. I just got the new one. I would say that the new one is just a tad pinker.
