Sometimes I can't with her swatches...smh. On a side note if Stone looks close to Styled in Sepia that would be good for me since I missed it and wanted it so badly.

*~*I'm in the minority, but I love Whirl on me. It's the perfect neutral rose shade for me...if MAC changes the shade, that will be disappointing, because it's my favorite. As someone with a deeper skin tone, it's really difficult to find rose/mauve shades that look good on me (and not like I've just eaten a powdered doughnut), so when I find one I like, I stick with it.*~*

Whirl looks so good on you. I hear you, it's really tricky to find rosy brown shades for us darker girls so I'm happy Whirl is the way it is.*~*I'm in the minority, but I love Whirl on me.

Nooooooooooo! I don't want it to have even a tinge of orange in itHonestly, when I was writing my comment about it on here I wanted to describe it as a mocha color!
When I was taking swatch pics yesterday, I HAD to pull out "Pander Me" and compare because that's what "Whirl" reminded me of - which is what made me think of "Persistence," since my first thoughts on that one were that it was a darker version of PM. I really wanted some mauve in the color, but I really don't see any of it on me, lol. I'm flexible about the colors I wear, yet I still feel disappointed.
I know.And the worst part is there is the slightest orange in it on me lolol. Pink > Orange for me all day, everyday.

That looks pretty on u! I agree with ur statement because certain rosy/nude-browns do not flatter me although some may love them, for example Velvet Teddy looks horrid on me but it's a WOC staple for many...*~*I'm in the minority, but I love Whirl on me.

Her lip swatches r off 75% of the time for me and I've actually skipped things and then gagged later when I see the testers in store, many times things have been sold out... She is very consistent which is why I continue to visit her blog for "ideas" of how a color may be haha

Wait wut!? Does it look like Spice??? I just do not like that kinda shade on me! That orange or pink undertone will make or break Miss Whirl for me...Honestly, when I was writing my comment about it on here I wanted to describe it as a mocha color!

The orangey shades need to have enough brown in it for it to work for me... I liked Pander Me and Persistence but have many similar shades... I'm glad Whirl is WOC friendly

Adding chanel base in rosee to my list right now! I have all of the other products you used. I am planning a les beiges haul soon, so I will pick up the base then. I have been working like a maniac lately - actually taking a quick break from working right now. So I am using visions of the striped powder and pink blush stick as a reward for getting everything done (hopefully this week)
