I don't have Catherine unfortunately! But that would be an interesting color comparison. The finishes will be quite different and I suspect Peach Satin is more vibrant, but the colors seem like they would definitely be in the same ballpark!

Or Jane?? For some reason Jane looks similar to this on me!!

Could be! I think Jane and Catherine are close. I haven't been able to swatch them in person so I'm just relying on online swatches but I think maybe Jane is a bit darker/deeper than Catherine?

If there are any mods reading - I don't know if something is wrong with this site the last 2 days, or its being hacked but since late yesterday, when a page here goes to load it is re-directing to another site - lemode-mgz. with different ads. Since it's not happening to me on any other site, I am assuming its specktra. Thought you might want to know.

This happens to me *A LOT* on mobile. I don't click anything and it randomly refreshes while I'm reading, and goes to an advertisement. :(

OK ladies....

Major disclaimers: It's already dark, I didn't do a real mani, and my hands are a mess. And I'm recovering from surgery. So please excuse the messy hands.

Here's a quick swatch comparison between Guerlain Baby Rose, Dior Tra La La, and Tom Ford Pink Crush, all 3 coats:




Looking at my hands, Pink Crush is the darkest and most blue based pink. Tra-La-La and Baby Rose pull more peachy pink on my Burberry Trench 02/202/Chanel 12 skin. I'm almost pink naturally.

Tra-La-La and Baby Rose are similar, but I prefer Guerlain's formula. It's also slightly more opaque in 3 coats.

So I looked at the collection in person today. Together with my online orders (which haven't arrived yet), my final haul from this collection is 2 compact powders (medium #3 and dore #4), the baby glow in light, and the two eyeshadow palettes. I haven't played with everything but I really was surprised how the dark compact gave me just a tiny bit of welcomed color. I think the medium will be nice for every day. I'll probably pick up the lightest compact at some point, but since I have so many balls I feel like I have the Clair side of things covered for now. Honestly, I think almost everyone can wear these, depending on your preferences and color cast that you are going for.

I have some really rough swatches on my instagram, but I think someone has them already here so I don't have to re-post (thank you thank you!). I'm sorry they are so bad, I'm no Karlasugar that's for sure!! I need a nice quiet setup to do a good job taking swatch pics, but I thought something might be better than nothing.

The eyeshadow palettes are beauuuuuuutiful, btw. So much dimension and good, soft pigment.

I loved the way that the blush balls looked, but then I got hooked into the Armani eye tints and had to draw the line somewhere.

Oh it is totally that vibrant! I was expecting a subdued peachy pink. What a wonderful surprise! And when I saw that orangey goodness I immediately thought of you. I figured there was no way you wouldn't be tempted by this one!

What is your instagram? If you don't mind sharing, of course!! I'd love to check out your swatches! I'm still curious about the eyeshadow palettes, I haven't seen many swatches of those. :)
