Innocence Beware is gorgeous with Pink Treat l/l and Luminary Lustreglass over it.
Still haven't worked up enough courage to try on QS.
Edited to add that I am loving DIU. Thought it might be a tad boring and everyday but tried it on and it is so pretty. Brightens up my whole face without another stitch of make up on.

I'm back - I'm in a rush so I can't post much but my main thoughts are here:
Naughty Saute - I decided to skip it. We have seen these pinks plenty and plenty of them are in the perm collection. IT was cute, but it was far from unique.
Watch Me Simmer - I came in wearing Full Speed Sheen Supreme to compare. It's the same color except BRIGHTER and RICHER and just a teeny weeny touch more orange leaning. Oh it's so so so so cute!! I love Full Speed and wore it all summer long last year and this is the louder, brighter, wackier sister. I don't think it'd be too far off to call it Toxic Tale for the springtime. SO CUTE. It's a must buy.
Quick Sizzle - I brought in my Pink Pigeon to compare. PP is lighter by a couple levels and brighter by also around 2-3 orders of brightness. It's also a touch bluer and has more of a white undertone to it - that's what's making it look lighter and brighter and a little bit clearer. QS is brighter than Rare Exotic mattene but it's quite similar - just a more spring version with less rose undertones. Do you need QS if you have PP - maybe, since it's a touch more subdued and "adult". Do you need it if you have Rare Exotic? Maybe not, unless RE was a touch too subdued for you and you wanted something a bit more fun. I really think it's great and will look extra bright on darker skins, while appearing more rich on paler gals. I'd say it's a more accessible hot pink than PP, so if you missed out on that one, don't feel bad - QS won't need as much bravery to wear and will still be plenty loud if you want it to be.
I bought ALL 3 Fluidlines - they're gorgeous. Very sophisticated colors, especially the grey, which reads a beautiful blueish mid-grey on me, and the taupe brown, which is definitely like a paler, gentler Dirty (which is one of my all time favorites). Wholesome is really superior too - much more flattering than blacktrack I think, because it's a richer, warmer black and has a moist matte finish, rather than a dry matte. I love 'em so much.
I will talk more about the rest but I have to run - 'just wanted to give the heads up on my personal stand outs!

I finally got my lipsticks!!!! I just posted swatches on my blog. I'll be posting comparison photos tonight. I'm seriously in love with them all. I'm so glad I picked up Naughty Saute! It's just awesome! I'm already wearing it! This is seriously the best lipstick collection ever! It was my first time owning Innocence beware and it already jumped towards the top of my favorite nudes!!! I'm so happy!

I'd like to see some comparison swatches between Quick sizzle, candy yum yum and other permanent bright fuchsia! I'd like also to see comparisons between naughty saute, chatterbox ,,,
If this is not possible your opinion will be as much important ^^

Went to my MAC counter today and picked up hot n saucy, quick sizzle and watch me simmer! I was the only person getting my makeup done and I went today at 4. I had put hot n saucy and wms on hold but decided to get qs last minute. When the mua opened the drawer of products I saw that there were about 8-9 wms left. I guess not many people went to that counter?

Thanks Liba!! You just stopped the Pink Pigeon/Quick Sizzle debate going on in my head! LOL! Pink Pigeon is fun, but QS is fun with a subdued edge to it. I'll be able to rock neon lips and not feel totally self conscious this spring/summer.

I just posted a comparison picture of Up the Amp vs. Dish it up on my blog. They look so similar in the tube. Naughty Saute is reminding me of Bubblegum lipstick. I'll swatch that soon!

my local counter sold out of WMS right at 10:09am -___- I guess they let customers in early, because I made it right at 10, and there was already a line at the counter
