She cried a few times, everyone thought it was happy tears but later on she told me why and it broke my heart.
But I am working on those emotions with her

What a beautiful color, thank you for posting! I suppose I do need it! :fluffy:
I had no intention on getting a pencil from NARS but the girl at the booth just had to show it to me after she told me she could send me Domonique and Anna (said Anita at first but meant Anna) once they headed back to NY after the show. One swatch and I was all over it lol. Kind of sad I didn't get a free chance to do any more shopping on Sunday because I had my eye on a few more lippies.

That's so awesome! I totally see why you bought it, It's pretty. Being busy is good but a shame you couldn't splurge more.

[@]Dolly Snow[/@] I love your new avi, seriously SO beautiful Any ladies with Greta, can you compare/swatch against any similar MAC shades? I'm trying to pick which will be my first of these and Every time I think I'm close to deciding I see another amazing swatch which throws me for a loop lol
I can swatch some if you like. I don't have Red Balloon, but I don't think Greta is too similar. I didn't really have anything similar in my stash at all.

Thought I was done with my makeup shopping for the year, but noooope...I'm falling off that no-buy wagon HARD!!! Got Charlotte during Sephora's sale, which joined her friends Liv and Juliette in my home. Now planning on picking up two more next week: Raquel and Janet! Raquel looks like it will be a great nude for me, and once I swatched Janet, I couldn't keep my eyes off her.

Do you have Relentlessly Red, Impassioned, or All Fired Up? I would love to see Greta swatched next to those. :)

@jennyap here are the comparisons

from left, red balloon, Greta, pleasure bomb. The differences are more apparent in real life but Greta is brighter and more opaque/pigmented.

Yeah the biggest difference is the formula and I prefer nars. It's more pigmented and longer lasting, doesn't slip around as much as the amplified, goes on more even. But that is more of a personal thing. Greta is gorgeous but if you have red balloon plus backups you may not need it unless you feel the formula is lacking. I'm not a huge fan of amplifieds so it was worth it to me. Plus I like the little more brightness that Greta has.
