so i ended up picking up RS, HJ and TD. TD is kinda like ms beauty bunni described - an orange nude. i don't think i have any lipsticks that look quite so yellow, but the lustre finish makes it a good thing in my books...

i thought RS might be a fail when i tried it in store, because it was SUPER ASHY on my hand...but, on the face - not ashy at all. it showed up a lovely peachy pink shade. the mua was actually surprised at 'how nice it looked'...i think she expected most of the shades would not be suited to darker skintones. i haven't tried HJ on, but i think if RS worked, HJ should not be an issue.

i didn't try on anything else on my face... the rest of the lipsticks were outside my comfort zone, and they did not have neon orange, which i thought might have worked. but i guess i can try to pick it up at pro sometime....

I opened my package today, and I got Flamingo, Tangerine Dream, and Sweet & Sour. I didn't even try on Sweet & Sour, because just looking at it and looking at other people's swatches I know it's not going to work for me. So, I'm going to send that one back.
Tangerine Dream was a disappointment. I think it would have looked better on me if it wasn't a lustre. It was just too sheer and patchy looking.
BUT, Flamingo! That's my new BFF! It's what I've always wanted Ever Hip, Dressmaker, Dressmaker, and Nicki 1 to be. It will be my bestie this summer. I'm wearing it now with NYX Fuschia liner. It's pretty without being all extra bright, in your face, look at my neon lips. I'm going to try it tomorrow with MAC Magenta liner.

I may only keep flamingo when I get my package. sk, td was okay to me. tt is nice but think I like Saigon summer better.

I just picked up flamingo today, and yes I'm living in a sea of regret for not getting at least a few more things. I gotta say though, flamingo is wonderful! It seems extra creamy the color is a beautiful, wearable pink on me.

I just got tangerine dream, sweet n sour and tarte n trendy for now! sushi kiss seemed a bit too bright for me, as well as, royal sunset which is almost kinda neon peachy pink!
