Midnight Mambo is straight up PINK, y'all. Nothing violet about that shit. LOLOLOLOLO

All the lippies look dupeable....

Yay! After seeing all T's swatches I'm happy with my purchases and happy that they are sending me simmer for free now.

I know! So glad I didn't buy it based on the Mac swatch. There's a slight violet sheen, but even that is really pushing it haha.
I really love Simmer based on Temptalia's swatch.

Ladiesss i have a question.. Would rio act more as a blush or a highlighter on me? I'm NW20

 

[KMQE716]

im looking at Temptalia's swatches of Exotic Ember and it reminds me of Metal Rock (a little bit)

 

[Medgal07]

T's swatches are going to make it really hard for me to continue my Simmer skip! It was on my original list, but I cut all blushes and eyeshadows off it after the RiRi debacle. Just thought I needed to cut back on my codependency with MAC. Just went for the new MSF's and the brush. Also BU'd some of the liners. Dammit I can't quit you MAC! UGH!

ps.... and of course I got my 4 item limit of NARCISSUS!!! You know, the CSG I absolutely despise! HeeHee wink

Follow your makeup heart Pixie!!!!

Way to go HOB!!!!

Will lust MSF look good on NW 44??

 

[Medgal07]

Well if I were T, I would have given Simmer & SS an A+++ because they both look very very pretty on her! Especially Simmer

I don't care for Mambo ls on her with any of the blushes or MSF. I dunno, to me it just appears to clash with the face products

I thought it was just me---I so agree that while the products are beautiful, the look she created seemed off.

But you're still my number 1.

Nope, not just you. I agree. But then you have an eye for purrty things.

 

[Richelle83]

MM looks like a typical fuchsia lipstick, definitely not worth $22.

Please let me know what you think of it! I keep going back and forth if I should pick it up :/ thanks!

 

[miss0annette]

So glad I passed on MM.

As i wrote in my review, NONE of the blushes or MSFs are glittery. They have a sheen, which can be seen in the photos, but NO glitter. And the sheen changes with the angle. Some look satiny at one angle and have sheen at another. Others have a sheen of a certain color at one angle and of a different color at a different angle.

The eye shadows, on the other hand, many are glittery - i noted which had more or less glitter in my review.
