Fantastic swatches [@]elegant-one[/@]! Pussycat is so so beautiful!

 

[elegant-one]

Glad to hear you love Pussycat!! Did you let First Time settle on your lips a bit? It looks a lot better on mine after a few minutes.

I just tried that with a light application & I love it on me now

Oh no, I'm glad you did. I think I used too much the first time

Its perfect now. I should have known that the first time I put it on.

Cool Naomi! I love the shade of this so much more than other mauves. Most mauves almost match my lip shade or deepen my lip color, but this one is a bit lighter/cooler or something & it just looks beautiful on. I think you'll love it!

How are your feet?

I can't wait to get it! The feet are okay,but I think I need different shoes. I had gotten some new ones and even got some Dr. Scholls arch support inserts but they don't seem to be adding enough support. :/

I was wondering how you'd describe the difference. To me it somehow looks more natural on than most mauves but I can't figure out why. Could it somehow be a warmer mauve (even though that seems like an oxymoron)?

I kind of gulped when I saw the pale pink. Now I am having the same issue Ella has with the green. It's not like I need another dark plum. It's the pale shades. So few companies do them right.

I have never been so conflicted over a collection in my life! Those swatches are really selling those pale shades. I'm definitely getting the blue duo. But I'm still on the fence over Jade and Plum. I agree with @laurennnxox that these are probably even more gorgeous and complex in real life, but not being near a counter, what's a girl to do! Decisions, decisions. And the clock is ticking as it won't be long now!

I hate the rush on TF LE items. it kills my wallet. The plum colors i'd reach for a lot. But as [@]Medgal07[/@] has also said, I wish they were quads! I don't own any TF quads and want my first e/s purchase from them to come in four not two!

 

[elegant-one]

I'm laughing at how many times you said "first time" talking about "first time".

I have to apply lightly with both of them.

funny! I didn't even realize it lol!

I have no idea why its different on the lips than other mauves. But yes, it does look more natural - that's definitely it. Most just always looked like my own lip color. This shade is perfect.

Yeah the LE rush kills me every time. I just don't know. I agree I'd reach for the plum the most of the three. And I keep revisiting this swatch http://instagram.com/p/xz2kSvjzO9/?modal=true and thinking I'm probably going to cave and get it because I'm so curious about layering the shades. And I see absolutely nothing wrong with the jade duo except that the green is too similar to the multitude of greens I already have. Quads would have been nice, or even as @Medgal07 said, having that lighter shade as part of a trio would have upped the perceived value on these I think. Because I'm looking at a couple of these and thinking 1 out of 2 shades doesn't seem unique to my collection, so do I really want to dish out all that money for essentially 1 unique pale shade which I will likely only use in small doses on my lid?

I'm going to be mad at myself if I skip them without seeing them with my own eyes, but I will probably also kick myself for buying them knowing I own some similar shades!

 

[beauteblogueur]

Absolutely love the duos!!!

Damn, looks like I need the blue duo as well.

Loving the look of the lighter shades, I don't have anything like the pale green and blue.

 

[Medgal07]

LOVE LOVE LOVE Pussycat on! First Time is a little yellow toned on my, but its still pretty. I'm happy with them.

Hope you're doing well Sis!

I've been a little MIA. REALLY Busy, plus puppy had surgery on Monday to have a growth removed from her leg & I was such a wreck!!! Couldn't eat, sleep, focus.

I love that little baby. She's a little groggy but doing better. I can't believe we have to wait for over a week to found out the results. Its cute though, our son keeps sending us texts with pics of her

Oh NO.

I definitely noticed your absence but was hoping you were on a European shopping trip and cruising French wine vineyards with Dominique!
I'm so sorry about puppy!
I hope she heals quickly and everything turns out ok!!!!! Sending good thoughts your way Sis.

I'm not sure what to do. I'm not in love with the plum duo. But I think that is the only one that would be flattering on my eyes, and would be (of the three) the one I'd reach for most. Though, the Green and Blue-- from swatches-- seem to be a little more intense and pigmented. I feel like these shades would be much more appreciated in person. I'm not sure I can drop the money on a TF duo without knowing if I'll for sure like it or not. Wish I had a location near by!

Lauren: Are the department stores stocking testers now? If so, I might have an opportunity to go by. The problem is they so sell you and then I feel guilty for not buying. Also on the Xavier/ VF differences, when I arm swatches them after the storm in better light, they were much closer but the Xavier after stain is slightly warmer and the bullet colors are different too with VF pinker and Xavier more red-- not that that means much.

I'm not sure if they have testers yet, unfortunately! And thanks for letting me know about the difference between VF and Xavier! Luckily vf if perm and I can always check it out when I go home.
