The newer ones had horrible pigmentation from the ones I got. The ones out with hot paprika were good though.
The only thing tempting about this lipstick to me now is the name. But of course, I won't get it for that. It's such a pretty name for a lipstick.Jealous... I want your natural lip colorMine are so deep mauvy pigmented.. blech. So I wonder how it will look on my lips. I'm in love with every swatch of it & the name
I swatched MA today too and I didn't care for it either.I made an impromptu visit to Macy's today and swatched the collection. I think I'm going to get all 3 Fluidlines, Amourous Alloy EDES, and maybe Fairly Precious EDSF. There were only 2 lipsticks on display and I wasn't interested in either of them. I thought for sure I would want Magnetic Appeal, but it's not at all what I expected. Magnetic Appeal seems to blend in completely with my skin tone. I barely saw it. It only has a slight sheen on my skin. Not the same metallic shimmer as Superb and Fairly Precious. It was very disappointing. Did I just swatch a dud, or have others with a similar complexion to mine experienced the same thing?
OMG when I saw Close Contact in the store I thought it looked very familiar to me. Got home & saw that it was very close to Viva Gaga 2. Thanks for the conformation.I did some swatch comparisons to Close Contact...
Close Contact, Myth, Honeylove and Viva Gaga 2
Playing Koi and Close Contact in the tubes (they're NOTHING alike so I didn't bother with swatches)
ETA: It looks closest to Viva Gaga 2 to me... Myth looks more peach than Close Contact... even though Close Contact is described as a peach...
I really wish they'd bring hush back! :sigh:I can't quote right now but it's not like yv. It's more like hush or motif I think. It is worth $20 IMO.
WOW SS looks so nice on you I really like how it looks but mine doesn't look like that when I apply it. I just don't get why...I'm thinking to get a lipglass to cut down the powedery donut look it gives me. I believe I'm a nw45 and it just doesn't look nice without any work@Ajigglin I'm returning FP. It doesn't even show up on my face. I guess some people are liking it but it does nothing for me. MA is gorgeous, though. I can use it as sort of a blush/highlight. So pretty. I'm actually glad that I'm returning it, because I got 2 more Sensual Sparks. It's been so hard to get decent lighting to take pics lol. Everything is either orange or washed out smh. Here's Sensual Sparks: And here's Carnal Instinct in orange bathroom lighting. The actual lipstick color is pretty close, though: I'm really happy with both
Count me in for FP. I've been playing with it and At Dusk. I wish I hadn't skipped the ED collection before. I've been looking at Sweet Heat and Silver dawn. Now I'm more tempted.Am I the only one that loves FP? I love it with peachy blushes. I've been wearing it with Miss Behave...Pure love! Considering A natural flirt. But is it anything like young venus edes? If anyone is considering sweet heas edes I def recommend it. I love using it in the crease with neutral looks!
Close Contact and Morning Rose were sold out in Macy's, but luckily I got Close Contact at the MAC store yesterday in the morning. Morning Rose is a nice color, but I prefer Haute Altitude for a MLBB lipstick. Close Contact applies like a neutral beige nude on me, nothing like Sweet & Sour (the only reason why I wanted it :\) or peach, it's creamy though. I skipped on all of the ED stuff because it's not really my thing but At Dusk is really pretty.
Comparisons:
MAC Hue, MAC Close Contact
MAC Runway Hit, MAC Ruffian Naked
MAC Myth, MAC Sushi Kiss
MAC Viva Glam Gaga 2, MAC Growing Trend
Viva Glam Gaga 2, Myth, Runway Hit, Hue
Growing Trend, Sushi Kiss, Ruffian Naked, Close Contact
I don't know why I swatched RH and SK with the other lipsticks, oh well.
Thank you for sharing these swatches, ladies

lol its not even worth it buying the eyeshadow.
Exactly. Way more product with the EDSF and it's more metallic-y aka better in my opinion.lol its not even worth it buying the eyeshadow.
Except that the EDSFs aren't eyesafe, nor are they made to be used wet, but...lol its not even worth it buying the eyeshadow.
I hada question about that? T. swatches hers wet and dry, but you said they shouldn't be used wet right? Does it ruin them?Except that the EDSFs aren't eyesafe, nor are they made to be used wet, but...
