And some swatches from my little haul!

First one: the Gone Sailing Makeup Bags. Very cute!




I also got Fleet Fast Blush.

It really has a mauvy undertone my camera was unable to catch, but it really is (for me) a slightly mauvey Nars Orgasm minus the glitter. It has some very very small sparkles.
I compared it with Tom Ford Love Lust, Hipness, Bite of an Apple and Alpha Girl (which is too light to count as an comparison, but I concluded it anyways).



Here are some swatches:



left to right: Bite of an Apple, Fleet Fast, Hipness, Tom Ford Love Lust, Alpha Girl


I also got Sail La Vie and Riviera Life. I compared Riviera Life to Morange l/g instore, and it's nearly identical. Riviera Life has some sparkles, though.

And some comparison swatches:



top to bottom: Scarlet Ibis, Sail La Vie, Hibiscus, Toxic Tale, Neon Orange

I hope that helps! I always rely on the swatches of our US specktrettes, so it's nice to give something back!

I'm dying to get my hands on that. Do you know a place to order TF cosmetics from in Germany, Anneri? I contacted Douglas, but they don't have the TF line.

Yes, sure! The only place in Germany that carries the cosmetics line is the KaDeWe, Germany.

Ah, I see, thank you. I wish we had a website to order from.

I'm quite surprised at my small haul though I might go back for some more - I only purchased:
-Red Racer l/s - gorgeous neutral red! Runaway Red is way more blue based in comparison and Chanel Dragon RAL is a much deeper red
-Sai La Vie l/s - lovely bright orange that pulls red on me. Hibiscus is less intense and Crosswires has more pink in it
-Send Me Sailing - my favourite item from this collection! Exactly how I imagine Cult Of Cherry l/g would look on me! There's no sparkle in this gloss its just a pigmented jelly red lipglass!
-Emerald Sea e/l - lovely colour, completely unique in my collection; Ivy Fluidline doesn't have as much yellow in it and MUFE Aqua Cream in 22 is much more intense

Hope this helps! I did take comparison photos but when I uploaded them all they changed colour :/

So glad everyone is getting their stuff and loving it!

I just wish I knew what to pair Shore Leave with.. I really need to find something.
