Gleam? Expensive Pink? Melon?

[taiamarie]

Hey!

The other day I was at mac checking out the new chrome and cream, and the ma that was helping me was wearing gleam on the lid and plumage in the crease with uberpeach on her lips. It was gorgeous! My question is, should I purchase gleam if I already have expensive pink and melon? How similar are these? I loved the look so much, perhaps someone could do comparison swatches? (much love!)

I have all 3 colors and love them all for seperate reason but I love Gleam the best. It's such a beautiful color! Gleam is more light pink/peachy with lots of shine. Expensive pink is not as shiny/sparkly but more or a peachy color. Melon on me looks peachy and again not as shiny. Maybe I'll swatch them later for you!

I had gleam and hated it so I swapped it :/ The texture was horrible and all I got was glitter that fell all over my face from it. I think Melon pigment is similar, but even closer is probably Shimmertime pigment. I hope that helps!

they are all different in their own way, like ladylocks said

most obviously different in texture...

they are all nice, but i love gleam over a creamier base like a shadestick,
its really pretty

I have both Gleam and Expensive Pink.

Gleam is really grainy and it does have a ton of glitter in it. Its a pretty light peachy pink whereas Expensive Pink is a goldy pink.

Ill swatch both for you if you'd like. I, however, do not have Melon.
