Love-bud vs Paradisco?

[bAbY_cHiCkEn01]

Can anybody tell me how different these 2 are in color? Or if it's mainly just the finish of the eyeshadow... Any swatches would be helpful, but if not, thats cool...

TIA!

I think lovebud might be a little warmer and stronger...but for me it was mainly the texture. Paradisco works on me and I love it and I really disliked the texture of lovebud so I passed on it.

But I would be really interested to hear what others think! I've been wondering exactly the same thing, cookie.

This is going to sound odd, but Paradisco has a flash of pinky/peach whereas Love-Bud is warmer and more orangey. I guess on me Paradisco is more corally. It's a bit less pigmented too. I love Love-Bud and think Paradisco is okay. But I can wear Paradisco with some cooler toned shadows and it doesn't clash.

Love Bud is more sheer and glittery and orange. Paradisco is a bright coral pink on me and it has little or no glitter. Both are very pretty IMO. I actually love Love Bud. I noramlly hate lustres, but this is so work-able.

Paradisco is brighter and appears more pink on me (NC25). Love Bud is warmer, more orange, and much more sparkly.

I tried these on my wrist at the pro store this afternoon - Love Bud was quite apricot and 'punchy', whereas Paradisco was quite sheer and slightly golden. To be honest, I found Love Bud and Expensive Pink* looked very similar on my skin, which is why I didn't buy it for myself.



* It always turns a golden apricot on me, but remains a golden-pink when I use it on other people. Def a colour that adapts to skin tone.
