I'm still trying to decide what to get. I'm now wondering if I shouldn't just get something totally different for me - which means LEAVE THE PINKS ALONE!! Besides, if these are coming back in the fall, I certainly foresee Pleasantry and Dainty being among the bunch. I'm really liking how Merrily looks and possibly Love Thing. Love Thing looks so much nicer than Plum Foolery. And the more and more I see Gentle, I dislike it.

Just did another livechat and learned the following:
Pleasantry is similar to Dollymix. And if you have Don't be Shy, Pink Swoon and Fashion Frenzy, and are trying to cut your list, you can skip Pleasantry.
Gentle is similar to Breezy Blush, but a bit more pale, and softer.
Merrily and Love Thing can work on us fair girls with a VERY light hand and skunk brush.
For NW/NC15-20 the recommended shades are Pleasantry, Gentle, Dainty, Warm Soul, and Nuance.
Hope that helps some!

Hehe, I might! But I really love the traditional fall colors for the fall, and Merrily and Love Thing fit the bill. But the pinks, I wear in the winter a lot to perk up my coloring. And with these coming back in the fall, that would be perfect timing to pick up a couple of those then. Especially considering I'm not too keen on a couple of the fall collections.

I am trying to figure which ones will be back in the fall, and I won't be surprised if the best sellers are Pleasantry, Dainty, Warm Soul, Gentle and Merrily. I wish we knew for sure, though.

Pleasantry
Merrily
Gleeful
Nuance

What can I knock off my list? I'm afraid Dainty and Nuance won't show on me..
Merrily
Gleeful
Nuance

Ugh. Gotta limit myself to 2 of these... which ones?! I'm an NC25 in MAC & a Medium Neutral Beige in EDM. The ones I'm considering: Gentle, Love Thing, Merrily, Gleeful. Can anyone who has seen them help me out please?

Mmmm, not so much. Pleasantry seems lighter to me. Dollymix is pretty bright on me. And I was just looking up pictures of Breezy blush, and it is WAY darker than Gentle.
Maybe she meant in the same color family?
I'd think you'd REALLY have to layer on Gentle and Pleasantry to get close to Breezy and Dollymix.
I was just coming back here to post my disagreement...
I am so anxious to see what Erine and Bunny think when they get back from their updates!

Well, I have seen them all.... IMO you don't need Gleeful AND Merrily. They seem kinda similar to me, but Merrily is a bit more intense. I can't decide between the other 3 you mentioned, so I am really no help.

I think that Love Thing, Gentle and Gleeful are going to be beautiful on darker skintones. The raspberry will deepen the color other than Pleasantry (which looks like Coy Girl and Pink Swoon to me). The warm/peach ones just look like other blushes to me and Merrily will I think be to red, but you never know, it could be so pretty. I am on the fence about.

Okay guys, Im interested in your input
The three Im almost certainly getting are pleasantry, gentle, and dainty.
I'm a NC15 skin tone with brownish black hair and bright blue eyes,
I know the three I'm getting are on the pinky side,
But I LOVVEEE pink blushes, they are my staple.
As far as the other blushes, which ones do you all think would look good on me?
Thanks <3
