Place all your Starflash swatches and product photographs in this thread - please ensure that your images are clear, in focus and as colour-accurate as possible! For the sake of clarity, I ask that official product images and swatches (those that you would find on a mailer postcard, sourced from MAC or posted on the official MAC website) are not posted in this thread.

Please remember that Specktra has a posting guideline that all posted images be no wider than 640 pixels or higher than 800 pixels - if your image is any larger than that, please make a text link to the image instead.

I noticed later in the day with indoor lighting the color of Bold & Brazen changed a little vs Cosmic so I wanted to add two more pics... These pics are very good for color & texture.

I'm not 100% sure on the comparision colors sorry! But I'm sure on the starflash colors. HTHS..Oh and am SO Sorry on the tiny font!! First time labelling >.<

Thoughts: the formula is soo buttery! But may have a tiny bit of trouble of color payoff. The ones with best color payoff imo are Grand Entrance and Smoke & Diamonds. I'm going to get Smoke & Diamonds and Talent Pool.

S&D is a touch darker, more pigmented, has more of a grey/silver tone to it and lacks the gold & copper fleck which Sweet Sienna has

Ive noticed lots of people asking about how it compares to Stila Diamond Lil. i dont own this colour anymore, but id say that if it and Sweet Sienna had a baby, it'd be Smoke & Diamonds
