Looks like S&S and SK are sold out again. I was thinking of getting a S&S (and maybe a SK BU) but I was waiting for the TT collection to release. Oh well...not meant to be I guess.

Oddly enough, I don't find SK to be very bright on me. Maybe that's just because I have so many lippies that are so much brighter? It looks like a tamer, more orangey version of Betty Bright on me. Somewhere between Shy Girl and Betty Bright.

Oooh..... after reading this so glad I ordered it (waiting for it to be shipped). Shy Girl is my ultimate nude and Betty Bright is a great summer colour on me - so hopefully SK will wear on me like it does on you... :)

Got Sweet & Sour and Tarte & Trendy from the restock!! Added to my Flamingo, Razzledazzler, and much beloved Sushi Kiss :) Wore SK today and I am so in love. I was worried about it the most, but I rock it. Woot.

I hope so too!!! Shy Girl is the closest thing to a nude lip I can wear without a lip liner, so that makes it a quick and easy favorite for me. Since it's your ultimate nude as well, I'm pretty sure SK will look the same on you as it does on me, especially if you're also a fan of Betty Bright

I wore Sushi Kiss yesterday. Swiping it on once, I was not a fan. I love brights, but I think I must be a "bright only if it's pink or purple" person. I don't care for Force of Love or Watch Me Simmer on me either. Later on, I blotted a couple of times, and I ended up really liking it a lot. Very wearable that way, and looked nice with my green eyes.
That's how I wear it too, I like it lightly applied and with a gloss on top. As a full on vibrant satin on me I just look crazy lol

I missed this! Hmm doubt it will make a difference on me.
IA flamingo is very bright on me, and also very pigmented. not long ago, i bought Sunny Seoul, which was supposed to be a dupe. its beautiful but not a dupe on me, its missing the brightness . i cant wait to see how this one looks.
i LOVE flamingo.

That's how I am with Shy Girl! It's the only nude shade I've found that doesn't wash me out! I used to be able to pull of Hue (back when I had dark brown hair) but not anymore ): Will post swatches when they arrive - my order is still 'pending' on the site - so hopefully it's shipped asap :)

I don't wear a lot of nudes, they just don't like me ): I bought Shy Girl based off of Estees old collection video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=694U040ZApg) but I'm a lot lighter than she is (a touch paler than Nars Siberia. I think it works best on me when I apply, blot and reapply - that way I can work up the intensity to my desire :)

Aradhana! This is merely my lay perspective. I really like the RSQ but if I had to pick one over
the other it would be AWQ. That said, the grey shades in both quads work well with my skin tone-
--the accompanying shades also make a difference and render a dissimilar look. I prefer the
general look that I get with the AWQ, but I like the RSQ for alternatives/options. They were
different enough to warrant me having both. I also happen to have the Lady Grey quad
(depotted) from MAC Me Over. I haven't worn those shadows recently, but from what I recall
they provided a soft muted look, which I also enjoy. The limitations in any of these quads rests
with one's preferences, tastes, imagination and ability to work with the product.


AWQ RSQ
Thank you for you reviews on the quads.

Trying to be a better stalker now.

But, then of course, if Mac could keep stuff in stock for longer than a few hours.... just sayin'!
