I want to see this in person- It looks intriguing to me- the first thing I thought about it was how gorg it would look on dark skinned people. I can not wait to see it on some people!

Dirty Plum is also awesome looking but is it wearable? That is the question. Bc Vintage Grape has been hard to pull off, so would DP be the same situation? And I know for now I'm skipping both BPs-- $25 is just a tad steep. It was worth it for the ombrés but I was stoked for those whereas these are cute but not exceptional IMO.

I thought Vintage Grape would be hard to pull off, but when I use it as a contour with the 187 brush and Azalea Blossom on the upper cheeks, it is gorgeous- looks on the pink side on me. I was totally shocked about it. When I labeled the photo, I forgot the name of Vintage Grape. LOL

The lighting was not quite strong enough for my camera, but the photo is still good enough to show the blush despite the blotchy look of it (my camera freaks out in subdued light and makes reds look weird on skin)

Anyone know if there are comparison photos of the *peacock* lipstick with Show Orchid?

And for whatever its worth- I am seriously considering the Summer Rose and Ever Hip and I WAS on a no buy. LOL

Here are the comparison swatches Erin did a while back:

I am sure that I will love that color then- I love Show Orchid, but this one has a bit more of - well, almost Fun N Sexy in it.

Speaking of which Fun N Sexy is the lipstick version of Electric Fuchsia from the Spring Forecast Collex. They look amazing together.

I bet EF will look great over Petals and Peacocks too.

Thanks!!!

I get to pick up my goodies from Nordies today.

Plus I am going to get a little makeover from my favorite MUA. It's a good day.
My final list ended up this:

Birds & Berries
Prim & Proper
Shell Pearl
Summer Rose

Anyone care to guess what sells out first and/or fastest? My guesses (from reading the lists and posts here) are:

Birds & Berries
Prim & Proper
Shell Pearl

OMG this was great help with the swatches. I was so undecisive on the blooming lovely.

Question! why is liberty of london not allowing me to use my discount for this collection???

 

[jenntoz]

my guesses...
Shell Pearl
Blue India
Ever Hip
I also think Summer Rose & Blooming Lovely will go quick

Shontay - A Different Groove is love on you! Really gorgeous.

I have been seeing the ads on TV for that- I wonder if that is what is on their facebook page.

Looks like fun-I was tempted to go look too.

Thank you sweetie, I'm not really sure where I was going with this question

If I think about it, I have sooo many cool toned pinks, since warm just doesn't work for me.
(I can't even get Jest e/s to work

)

So, maybe I should skip them both and get Dirty Plum instead

You can always try warmer blushes with a lighter hand and then they should be ok

I also mostly wear pinks but I love my peaches and corals in spring and summer

I totally agree. It is the perfect mix of dusty blue, teal and gray. I have been trying to get this color forever.

This will be second MAC polish, so nothing has thrilled about their polish since Whirlwind NP.

Sidenote: Should I be offended about all this wear anything/anywhere stuff, a response to my post? I just wanna know.
