I tried on Stone and Matte Royal really quick before I take my makeup off for the night. These are in bathroom lighting, it's been so rainy (and cold!) here so i hope these show up somewhat true to color Stone. I like this even if it's a weirdo shade on me lol reminds me of the 20s

Matte Royal which my friend describes as "Plumpy from Candyland color"

Looks great! Both! I know, the weather sucks! I could have used a light scarf today!
Here's a quick pic after work. MLM is very similar to RRB but it has more of a shine to it than RRB even though they're both matte. And I looooooove D

for Danger!! So happy with both.
Gorg. Even though D4D is supposed to look like Heaux I'm not in a rush to get it for whatever reason. Watch I'll swatch it then fall in love!
Finally tried Whirl today with Whirl lip liner. It looks more brown on me. I'll try it with a pink liner next time.

Stone!

If I thought Nude and SiS were the perfect nude for my skin tone, Stone is my exact nude. Like it nearly matches my skin totally. It really mutes out my lips...in a good way. I like! Perfect for a heavy eye look. Glad it's perm. It reminds me of how I like VGR2 lipstick. It's the same concept on me but frost. Some won't like it...
Love it!

Whirl doesn't look good on me like it does the rest of you. Mine turns a slight warm cinnamon brown shade. So disappointed. I really thought that my dark mauve purpley lips would make it more pink but sadly no. It looks bad muddy. sad

I LOVE LOVE MLM!
MLM is a pretty color.

Box finally came! Matte Royal definitely still pulls purple on me rather than blue but that's ok it's still very unique. Stone is pretty much exactly how I wanted it to look. Whirl does pull a tiny bit more brown than I would have hoped but it's not make me want to cry brown lol I think it's ok on me on it's own and in fall will be pretty. I'll probably pair it with a pinker color underneath though when I wear it

Whirl is so pretty on you! I love the entire makeup look! I actually prefer Whirl to Boca in your swatches, so I don't feel that bad that I missed out on the latter.

Brown or not, you are rocking it, girl!

I tried Whirl today and it didn't turn into a funky orangey-brown color on me like some other MAC colors do. I wish it were much more mauvey too, but it is still a nice color to achieve a pouty look. It looks really pretty with Charlotte Tilbury's "Pillowtalk" lip liner liner.

I agree. Both look lovely on you. I just wit tey came in the retro matte formula.

You go girl!!!!! I love ALL of these beautiful shades on you. WNW Raisin looks like a shade I should have in my collection. Divine is beautiful too. I am not a fan of Matte Royal on everyone but you can certainly pull it off. It looks pretty on you.
Thank you ladies!

Which ones are your new favorites? I like D for Danger and Men Love Mystery. Whirl and Persistence are almost identical on me. I wish DFD and MLM weren't creamy mattes though.
Probably DfD so far. I haven't gotten Whirl yet and now want to check them in store as I don't need two of that shade. I like the creamy mattes, I find them less drying without compromising the wear time. I like the retro mattes, but the regular ol mattes are my fav so I'm glad these aren't RMs.
