Maybe. Did you notice it too? Or is it just me?

Oh I noticed! It looks like a light is an inch away :sigh:

I think she does and to me, if you are taking them indoors, it only makes sense.

Okay good. I thought it might be my comp screen or something. Hopefully Karen puts her swatches up soon.

The inside of the packaging

Yess lol

 

[Shars]

I hope so too. I noticed that her Matte, Brooke and now Rocky swatches all look like she's got super bright lighting going on so I'm hoping FNF is not really that bright looking.

I think she was probably working at getting all the swatches up and didn't let the lipsticks set to matte before taking the photos. Shoot, if I had soo many products to swatch and review, I might do the same lol. Her "on lip" swatches are what I usually go by but TBH, I'm more concerned about her review portion and dupe suggestions than her swatches anyways

Come on karen. Weirdly Karen's swatches always confirms what I buy lol

I get using lighting for taking pic indoors, and think she usually does them indoors using studio lighting. It just seems to me like that lighting she used for these shoots is brighter than usual which is maybe making the colour look brighter.

Yess lol

No joke, outside kinda meh. When she put the pic of the inside, my heart screamed "YAAAAAS"! I am not one for packaging but holy hell! :lol:

Probably, it's a lot to do. I'm still waiting on her review portion which is usually helpful for me since I can't normally go based off her swatches due to her skin tone being much lighter than mine and our differing lip pigmentation. I just thought these looked a bit brighter than normal.

The blue from the eyeshadow palette is reminding me a bit of a frostier Love Lace. I love that shade.

I like using her swatches to gauge if a colour will look okay on me since she and I are close in skin tone and will usually seal the deal for me on whether or not I'll order online or trek to the store for something. T's reviews help as well when it comes to lip products.

Completely agree Naomi! I use that same mentality, if it looks good on Karen, it'll look good on me. Weird I know, but she helps. She hasn't steered me wrong yet. T, like you I use for her review on dupes, similar products and such.

Yeah, I use both of theirs to see if things will even show up on me. (I'm darker than both of them!). If it's pigmented as heck on T and it's also pigmented on Karen, I'm sold. If it's pigmented on T, and just visible on Karen, I wait and hope the chocolate divas post swatches lol. If it's barely visible on both T and K

What about people that are not even into RHPS? :'( It is one thing to be into mac and makeup and wanted to buy it but if you are not a makeup lover and you don't even know RHPS... ugh. If I miss it because one seller who doesn't even know who Dr. Frank N Furter buys all the lipsticks to sell them at 10000000000 dollars each, I swear.... I swear!!!! I am getting very nervous about this release

Thank you for introducing me to Dr. Frank N Furter, now when I go buy lippies you wont hurt me! hahaha

Same here! If it's faint on Karen, I know I better go check that out in person because there is a big chance it'll just disappear on my face.

Thanks! I want FnF for sure. Torn between Oblivion and SJ.

Really because I was just looking at those thinking they look so rich and pigmented and I can't wait to just cover my face in every color!  I'm lipstick whore and I have no shame.  

Haha! Me too! :haha:

 

[rocksteadybaby]
