Not at all. BOA looks a lot more orange/coral, has a bit of a red tinge to it.
I'm going to post swatches/photos later (I'm planning to post my entire collection in celebration of de-potting every shadow and blush). It's really striking to see BOA against the other pinks (like Tippy). It looks so much more orange in comparison, though alone I don't think of it as orange really.

Heartless is much more neutral than Dubonnet; I think that it leans slightly yellow-orange. I also think that Dubonnet is more matte. You will definitely notice a difference between the two; to me Dubonnet and Russian Red are similar and Heartless is completely different.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
ridiculous!! the store opened at 10:30, I was there at 11:00 and Bad fairy was already sold out! so not fair that the MA's sold four per person
( booo
Anyways, I got:
Both MES (i tried these with Fix plus at the store, one duo on each eye and even the MA was like.. wow
Briar rose BP (surprised me.. very pigmented, soft blush, MUCH better than Azalea Blossom on me...)
Heartless l/s(my FIRST red)
Strange potion - cos, well i need that
Bite of an apple blush... it looks very good on, I compared it to ML in the pot and its defnly redder and deeper.. i do have to do proper cheek comparisons to ML as well as Joie De vivre tho..
Mean and Green and FOrmidable (Still upset over not having Bad fairy, this looks the best on my nails
i got the other two cos Orly is hard to come by in Singapore and its at inflated prices.
honestly, this is one collection where the products may not be super unique, BUT I love everyone of the items that I got.
Oh and the distaster that was Toxic Tale... YIKESS... looked horrible horrible on me.. neon orange/pink lips.. I have NO clue why this reminded me of this creepy grandma/zombie lady in the movie Legend.
The Magic powders were not in yet, tho I did like Cajun and Truth and Light... the former was bronze/pink and the latter was peachy.. I may get Cajun..I forgot to try Violetta but I guess i can do the pro thingy... also, IB.. I actually liked it... very neutral/normal everyday, but I wud stick to a perm product and not pay 30 $ for it... so yea.
Revenge is sweet is damn pretty, surprised how there arent too many raves for it... may go back for this.. Hot House is hot! but i probably wudnt wear this too often. and Resort life... sorry I still hate it... glittery mess
The facilier display was looking so sad, no one was playing with tht side
... oh and now I must get a sample of Push the edge to pair my MDM

The swatches on Fyrinnae are excellent, and NARS is actually pretty good. Sephora is even worse than MAC.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
oh and i forgot the REST of ther products
Dark Deed was super pretty, but its a better (amplified ) finish to Kittenish on moi... swatched the together and they are pretty similar.did look great tho!
Wicked ways had a tinge of pink, so i didint try it on...
Wrong spell - nopes no no
Devilishly stylish - this was one fo the products that was sold out.. can u believe it!
and I think Erine mentioned that mean and green is a np version of liquid lurex.. spot on!...
Darkly my dear- mentioned this on the other forum, looks similar to notable blush.. notable has slightly pinker tones on my cheek... this is like the nude blush for WOC.. like a darker prim and proper (which is slightly ashy on darker skin tones)... and defnly not like Douceur... the NARS is much lighter.
Btw, i had on one eye, the SWD duo, green in the middle, blue in the inner and outer and mixed on the crease.. perfect match to formidable np
sorry.. am in LOVE with this collection!
French Quarter- looked black with gold/olive glitters on my hand... it doesnt really matter if u have this on the "original" GPS.. guess they wud be similar under e/s unless ur looking to wear it as an E/s.
I Cant wait to try the green of SWD with GBA probably under dirty cos I love me some dirty!

And YSL! Their swatches (esp the lip products) are amazing close to real life.
Snatched up Revenge is Sweet l/g and Mean & Green n/l today. Had to go to 3 different MAC counters to track down Mean & Green...WORTH IT. Especially since I can't easily buy Orly here.
Revenge is Sweet l/g is soo nice. Just the kind of gloss I love - sheer, but with enough colour to make your lips look juicy.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I got alllll my stuff! Yay! And everything was in the bag this time! Double yay!!
First my bf and I went for some sushi (yum), and then we headed over to MAC to pick up my goods. My.bag.was.huuuuge! lol. And my lovely MUA also included a TON of samples of pretty much anything you can think of! There was foundations, concealers, skin care, pigments. She seriously rocks my socks! <3
They also had a big 'ol box behind the counter full of pre-order bags that they were calling "problem bags". They said the payments didn't go through on any of those orders. I was super shocked, because there was a loooooot of them. So they were holding them till the end of the night and then back in stock they go. Which will work for someone else who may be looking for something tomorrow morning. They were sold out of all but like 4-5 things. She said the first to go was the mirror (crazy right?), all 3 N/L, toxic tale, BOA, and OSF. So glad I got everything I wanted.
And I also bought this little MAC mirror they had. It comes in a black sleeve. It's super cute!
I was over here thinking that I had a huge haul... she said that there was a couple of people who pre-ordered the whole collection x's 2! Crazy!
I haven't had a chance to play with anything yet. Tomorrow for sure and hopefully I can post some pics!
Oh and the only thing I bought 2 of was IB l/s. I swatched it, and it was love for sure!! I may need more! lol.

Not at all. BOA is much redder than Tippy. BOA is a coral-red color, Tippy is more of a hot "barbie" pink color.
Quote:
Because Violetta is perm! You don't have to pay extra cash to get it with this collection unless you want to pay extra for the packaging. If you ask me, I don't think it's worth it.
Russian Red is similar to Heartless, but I got Heartless anyhow because I've always wanted a red lipstick in the Amplified formula.
If you love Russian Red though, there is no need to get Heartless. And no hun, Dubonnet is not close to Dark Deed at all. I would say Dubonnet is more brownish, Dark Deed has more plum undertones to it.

Hey! Are you back in Singapore already?
I hope you got what you wanted!
