I bought HJ but i want to go back for the other blushes. Anyone here that is NC35 and had good experience with RS or IF? I dont want to miss out on them. They looked pretty ashy and light when i swatched on my arm.

IHughes. Flamingo looks really lovely on you! Obviously I'm not your coloring but there are other lovelies on the thread who are. I would think some of the other lighter shades in the collection will also work for you. If you're skeptical about the brighter shades for now, perhaps swatching them in person might be more comfortable for you. Good luck. Have fun and let us know what you decide.

REALLY had to stop myself from forcing liners on all these new orange lippies! I am ADDICTED to lip liners, but I think these shades look best on me worn alone. For example, I have Flamingo from the previous release. Thought I didn't like it at all... just didn't "do" anything for me really. Stored it away. This release had me dusting it off and just swatching it quickly on my lips, NO liner, and completely different result! Went from "MEH" to "LOVE" in a couple swipes. I was happy to grab a BU from the secret site the other day since it's a lustre and I know they go quick! (I'm looking at you Venus lippie!)

I look a little awful in this pic cause I'm sooooo sick w/ the worst cold/sinus crap EVER right now (due to all my traveling lately I imagine)... BUT that doesn't stop a TRUE makeup addict from trying her new Sushi Kiss lippie today! NC30/35 for reference.




Hope everyone scored what they wanted!!!
AND SHELLCAT... I'm going to need to see those TD & S&S lippies on you PRONTO missy! HeeHee But seriously, I do!

Barely noticeable Elegant but the texture looks a tad different. Do you find that to be so???

Still as beautiful as ever!!

Its been asked a couple times if the old Flamingo is like the new Flamingo. I just got the new one. I would say that the new one is just a tad pinker.

old - left, new - right

I used HJ lightly up the cheekbone & then brushed RS just over the apples of my cheeks - lovely

Sounds really pretty. I'm still waiting for UPS to float arrive at my door. May need to toss some water wings to the driver with all of this damn rain

MBB, TT looks so pretty on you, and TD is perfect for your minimalist makeup days in the hot weather.

It sure is!

 

[Medgal07]

I used the dior addict lip glow (one universal shade) though I think any gloss would do. I liked the look of the slight pink glossy tinge under the bolder, more matte Sushi Kiss. It was a nice mix for a more 'everyday orange'. Btw, I bought RS! Love it!

Glad to hear that you love RS because I ordered it too. I just took a chance that it would be as pretty as it looked in the promo pics.

So pretty! it's amazing how all these colors look so different on everyone.

 

[Medgal07]

Beautiful color on your gorgeous full lips---stunning!!!!

Hey Medgal - look what warning sign I just got again - see, it has nothing to do with my drinking limit

I was really surprised by how much I liked it. I'm very neutral in skin tone and things can go either way.

Shameless enabler enthusiast.

I LOVE Dior and you're making me want to check this out. I'm a nut for pink anyway. I have three Dior NPs sitting
in an online shopping cart and GBP just might fall in with them!!

Veronica's blush (how was this the only product from Archie's girl that didnt sell out at my counter yet? You bet I grabbed the last one. Thought I missed out of it... Whoohooo)

 

[MACina]

YES....we will still stalk together then

I agree! I bet even when im old and wrinkly, I ll still be stalking collections! Hopefully u guys are all still here stalking with me

 

[Medgal07]

GREAT haul Mac4Megan! Glad you nabbed the quad.

I think eye looks created with it will look great with all of the lippies!!!

Just got my hot lipsticks from the humid UPS truck! Time to let them chill in the fridge before I dive into them :-D

elegant, you're enabling me to get a Dior blush now! I saw the swatch of the baby pink color and swooned over it. Now it will join Chanel Amant on my "need to buy" list

If It helps i got RS And im a NC30 Going into NC35 and it looks lovely. I just use it with no bronzer and since its matte I can use it freely during the day. It is very girlie looking I think but I'm prob gonna use for min makeup days since it'll give me a rosy cheek effortlessly Em 94 YJ white.

 

[mosha010]

And I say girlie looking being that I'm use to my go to blushes are a bit in the bright side: nars exhibit A and nars taj mahal..... My "girlie" look is usually a bit of orgasm... So yea RS Is def a tone down the usual but it does look very pretty and complements the orange lippies Em 94 YJ white.
