That is great for office-wear. Shell Pearl has such beautiful microscopic multi-colored shimmers, reminded me of Smashbox Soft Lights, their typical pale peachy one in a duo pan. But Shell Pearl has a much higher level of sheen, just as I wanted so it didn't completely absorb into my skin by the end of the day.
Blooming Lovely is stunning, it's the shade I've been searching for since high school days when I had a very similar l/s.
I'd put it into the same family with Gaga l/s, both are cool with blue undertones and look amazing on. They are still very different to justify having both. If you have some yellowish peachy tones to your skin and cool undertones to your lips, Blooming Lovely might work just beautifully.
I also caved for Ever Hip and it's lovely! It's much cooler and pinker than Shy Girl or Ravishing, maybe similar to Creme Cup? It showed some strong fuchsia pink pigment on my lips over a nude gloss (reminded me of a very light version of Red Full-Stop when on). I'm guessing if you apply Lollipop Lovin', lightly dab some of the Red Full-Stop l/s over it and blot, you might end up with something close to Ever Hip color. I've been wearing Ever Hip with Scott Barnes l/g in Whisper, which is a nice and non-sticky dupe for PHS. Didn't like Ever Hip over In Synch, it was too whitish pale pink for me and looked messy dry. It mght work nicer over gloss or lip balm.
English Accents l/g looks very similar to an old Pink-a-Dot lip lacquer, a bit less lavender and less milky
Very close to BE Dani Buxom in color but Dani is too sheer. EA is also very similar to my fave Bourjois l/g in 19 Rose Synthetic, maybe a touch cooler in a tube.
Also, if you wear Gladiola over a sheer nude or sheer cool pink gloss, you would get that beautiful sheen of P&P l/s in no time
A pure hotness!
I didn't get Peachstock since I already have it. It's very pretty but I need to play with it a bit more, it doesn't look quite right on its own. Maybe with Naked liner or Ember Glow l/g?
Overall, LOL packaging is the best MAC ever created in the last few years, so classy and flirty at the same time imho.
Now, could we have some shiny hot flame yellow compacts that are not too orange, please MAC?
Something like yellow marigold Harley Davidson edition or racing yellow checker-board
Maybe there could be a collaboration with Harley or NASCAR for some fierce biker-girl styles?

Woot Woot I'll have to get 2 or 3 then!
Rose Synthetic is my all time favourite lipgloss and it is discontinued
At least here in Denmark.
I can't wait to get English Accents now
Thank you for that comparison
