I have been wondering about DG.
I'm worried about it being both too white based and too matte for my comfort, so I had decided to give it a miss.
The colour does look beautiful on everybody. I may check this out in store and use your idea of lightly patting the lipstick on and see if that works for me.
DG is not all that white based for me. It applies so creamy and like a dream too.
Not dry or stiff like some mattes can be.
Give it a try if you can.

Woc @nc50-I've tried all of my haul out (I'm too shy for posting swatches and lip shots and all that) here's what I find happened: Kelly yum yum-we have seen this color before yes, but this is bright and nice. This is a super YES. Dodgy girl: it's cute enough but you'll have to work with it a little. It's not tooooo ashy but on my lips I see more pink than lavender. I wanted it to look more purple. It's worth a try. When it looks right it looks good. Strip poker and riot house: fuggheddaboutit. Just not for us. If you work with these you'll be working for a while on your lips or totally changing the product completely, so why buy it? Way too chalky on my mouth but I knew they'd be, was just hoping for different. Peaches and cream: CRAZY pigmented. It has a reddish tone to it, almost a red brick thing going, but it's nice and shows up WELLLLL. Cheeky bugger: comes off a little ashy on me but it can work. It's pigmented but I wouldn't buy it again. Out of the two I'd say Sharon's is more for the dark ladies. Patent polishes: YES YES AND MORE YES. French kiss is backup worthy. It's a nice everyday balmy nude. Patent pink is ok alone if you put it on very lightly but it works because it's so sheer. Innocent- a little ashy but basically balm anyway so I don't know if is suggest it to anyone really unless they need a balm. Ruby-I don't like light red/stained berry looks so I would pass on a bu, but if you like that stained berry look it's actually pretty. For woc-these are the lip products to look at. Bijou-NIIIIICCCCEE everyday no fuss nude lipglass. Reminds me of spice lipglass when I put it on because I can apply without looking and know it's ok. Pussywillow-it's a basic but pretty slightly pearlish glittery color that works. I'd suggest it if you like layering but I like wearing these alone. This is what I expected gold mirror to be. I say try it unless it's too basic or you don't like glittery lips. Sharon's MSF: it's ok if you're looking for a glowy highlight or a blush that doesn't scream IM WEARING BLUSH but will only add a little color with a slight bronze sheen. It's like a more bronzy and less red format blush when the two colors are mixed together. Not bad but not essential. The big portion leans red on me. Between the MSF and Sharon's blush, id grab the blush. (Edit: I'd say coppery toned more than bronze or even in between, but it doesn't come out full on bronze.) Kelly's MSF: if I did it over id skip it. Too ashy and light, but you can work with it for highlighting if you like to work hard for your highlight. I think all the nc/nw25 and down will love it. Brushes-the 183 and the 167 are the best of the 4. The other 2 are just minis of other brushes I never use so blah. Quality isn't bad though. I'd get the 183 and 167 if I wasn't collecting. Anyway I hope this helps someone. If I didn't talk about it I didn't buy it. There's my 2 cents :)

Hey, everyone! My video is up now. You can find the link to my YouTube through my signature. I'm sorry for the quality of the video. I am just exhausted. This is the busiest day of the month at work and it was difficult to come home and do a video after that. Hope you still enjoy it!

Loved your video, Mandy! It was really helpful and you are so cute and funny! I think I'm going to stick to just DG and KYY. I think they will be better suited to me. You look great in everything, though!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, I'm NC 44 and have been patiently waiting for thoughts on the products from other "toasty" gals like us :))

That's good to know, thanks.
I have been watching the swatches come in, and the colour looks so pretty!
