Honesty and Honey Lust ... Lustres ???

[SweetCheeks]

If you had to choose one over the other, which would you go with ... or would you pass on both? I worry about working with lustre shadows. Any dupes for either color that are more workable ?

If I had to choose one over the other, I'd go with Honey Lust.
The color payoff is much better, despite the chunky texture. In all honesty though, I'd probably pass on both.
I'm sure you can find similar colors with better textures. I don't know any off-hand though... sorry!

Thanks ...

Yeah...I'd pass on both, too. There are lustres that are better than others, like Tempting and Magnetic Fields (LE Neo Sci-Fi), but most are glitter bombs. I really hope they replace Lustres with the Starflash finish.

I love lustres. You just need to apply with a damp brush. I'd choose honey lust because it was my first MAC shadow and I still love it.

A completely different finish, but what about Kid?

kid has no shimmer so i'm not sure if it's what you're looking for. honesty doesn't show up on me that well but it's a very very subtle look if thats what you're looking for. i'd say honey lust is very pretty but kind of hard to work with but i'd say it's def worth getting. it's extremely shimmmery and gorgeous

I lone Honesty. It gives me a lot of color pay off, but Honey lust is just a glittery mess.

I own honesty and it's just a mess. What about trying some VPs?

 

[NicksWifey]

I have both. I find the color payoff with Honesty to be pretty sheer, meaning I used to have to pack quite a bit on before I could get the results I wanted and that ended up with shimmer everywhere. Honey Lust is an awesome color, but it's messy. I always end up with shimmer under my eyes. I usually don't need as much with Honey Lust but it's messy. They're both on the messy side and it's a shame because they look so pretty in the pan!

Honey Lust was my everyday shadow for a while. But back then I used one of those foam applicators to apply. I found that they kept the glitter from going everwhere. But a slightly damp brush works well also. Honey Lust is such a wonderful color though. So pretty.
