I got Fonce and I'm NW43/NC45 and love it! I don't need a primer it stays matte all day with a radiant glow as day goes. But if u got dry skin it's going to make it more dry. Perfect for oily, combination and normal skin. Worth checking out in your local counters if u are not adamant to try it yet. Ebony is perfect for NC50 and up. A pump goes a long way.

Does anyone know when are we ever gonna get the new Eyeshadow quads here in the US? It's not fair if it will be released in the Fall. That's a very long wait.

Late June

Any NC 50'S and up are buying the foundation?

Noooo. I'm NC 50 and I swatched the two darkest shade, but even when I looked at them, it was easy to tell they were way too light. (May be good for NC 42) Also, the undertone was very neutral/beige which appears grey against my golden undertone.

As Charisma said, the Joli teint is a really nice summer foundation; Ebony is good for NC 50 and up, but I'm afraid to buy it because the two times I swatched it, it had a very warm (slightly red/orange) undertone. It would probably suit me better when I tan; that's when I get a good dose of red in my skin.

I only got Canaille, Vivacite I skipped thought it be close to Nars Couer Battant. Pls post swatches when u get the chance. Thank u.

I'll definitely post swatches. I have Couer Battant too, but I felt the difference in formula was enough to warrant having both...of course any old excuse would have
justified it in my mind

I cancelled my order at Bloomys and re ordered through saks. I only got Vivacite this time since Canaille might be a little too warm for me after seeing those pictures. I can't wait to try the foundation in stores.

The foundation is out in Canada now. I can post some swatches of the Beige 20 if you like. The eyeshadow quads are already in Canada here too, if any one wants me to CP them one!

I nearly did the same, but I thought I'd wait to give Nordies a chance to get on board. Vivacite will look amazing on you HOB!!!!

Saks is shipping very quickly. My Vivacite will be here Saturday.

That's one of the good things about Saks---they use FedEx and FedEx makes Saturday deliveries. I called Bloomies for a status of the projected delivery date.
Since the date is still 4/21 I canceled that order and hopped on the Saks train, along with you ladies and HOB!!

I have Fonce sitting in my cart along w/the bronzer in # 07 which I'm hoping isn't too dark. Your input here Carismafulltv & NYCBeautyJunkie has been very helpful---THANKS
