Immortal Flower looked much darker on my cheeks too. I think I see Royal Sunset in my future but I really should try these lip colors with all my other pinky coral blushes - Fleet Fast and Supercontinental come to mind. But I'll probably end up ordering Royal Sunset and Honey Jasmine. I THINK YOU'LL LIKE THEM BOTH---VERY PIGMENTED AND VERY WEARABLE
Who am I kidding? Of course I'll get them.

My 2nd haul arrived today! I got Tarte & Trendy plus a BU of Razzledazzler! I haven't tried T&T yet because my baby girl had her 1st shots today, so she's been a little fussy this evening and needs extra love, comfort, and snuggles.

ETA: I got to take a peek, and it looks so lovely in the tube! I'll post pics tomorrow.

Reel Sexy and Sushi Kiss are sooooooo similar on my lips. I like Reel Sexy, but not sure if I like it enough to have additional BUs lol. But I like the name Sushi Kiss *sigh* #hoarderproblems.


Outside of Flamingo, Tart & Trendy is my favorite shade from this collection. It's just so fun and I love the sheen it has on my lips. Sweet & Sour is a good nude color, but not one of my favorites (as far as nudes go, Marquise D' has that title). Tangerine Dream is an experimental shade that I probably should not have purchased lol, but we'll see what happens with a little elbow grease.

They're quite similar. You know how much I love Reel Sexy ;)

Just try applying very lightly and patting into the lips with your finger. Don't use a bunch of lip liner - it will only make the color seem more like fake wax lips. Another option is to apply some balm or gloss first, put only a dab of SK on the middle of the lower lip and the cupid's bow, and then pat all of that in with a finger.

One thing about TD - I thought it was pretty wild looking on me in the store lighting, but in soft nighttime lighting it looks amazing on me, so try playing around with that a little.

For me, I think all the lipsticks look best without any other makeup on or just a subtle bit of blush or bronzer so that I've got a bit of a glow. If I put eye makeup on too, I have to get it just so or the colors start looking a little too costume-y for my age. Also, I think the right hair style can really make a difference too - you need something cute and maybe a little retro to emphasize the adorableness of the lipsticks - they deserve a touch of dress up and flair.

Try re-upping it by set it one of the other options, then switch back to email and see if that works.
