^I got my first package today... technically it was my second purchase but used the free overnight code. My two other packages will be here tomorrow. Here's Bijou, by itself. I kinda like it by itself too, I don't know that it's that special. But I'm really wanting it to wear over Cranberry.
^ Beautiful!!! I didn't get this gloss, I got Pussywillow but now I feel like I need it!
^ GORGEOUS!!

I love the highlight color of refresh but from my research I've heard it's similar to cream color base hush, which I own. I like the pink highlight and subtle color of jg but worried if it will show up on my skin. Any opinions or advice is appreciated. Thanks
PS Thanks for all the swatch sharing everyone looks amazing!

I'll swatch it on my lips in store and put the 'dab n smoosh' method into action!I do the dab n smoosh elegant method of using lipsticks too
I use a light application on just my bottom lip, & then I smoosh my lips together. It gives a more subtle wearable natural look. You can always add more.
Yes, if you can check it out in the store. It appears to be quite wearable on almost everyone.

It's fab. You're going to love it.
No problem
There's 2 answers to this: Reality of it-no. I'd skip. It's seriously going to look like chalk. You could just grab a color that works for you and save the energy trying to make it work lol What some will say-yes. You can deepen it around etc. and make it BETTER but will it be look good? No. A brown ring around light pastel colors is never cute IMO. Also, to gloss is up because you want to is one thing-but if you gloss it up because you have to? I'd say it's not your color. Some people love to do all the mixing etc. so if you do, sure it will work but that turns it into a different color all together so why bother? Just get a nude for your skin tone to begin with and skip the work. Strip poker and riot house on most (*not all) darker skinned girls will be a disaster IMO. I get that some girls like the look of chalky lips, and it's your call but id stay away. *all said with smiles

Bijou - its a very very beautiful soft pinked rosey mauve baby lips shade. And, I think it makes the lips look very very youthfully sexy.

Thanks so much I will keep this in mind when I go to the store. Very helpful thanks again.
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. 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
