And Knight Divine is similar to Knight
On me Knight Divine doesn't have that pearly shimmer I see on FOTDs of others, which one of the three other e/s mentioned would be better?

^personally i find that the difference is slight in color, i have both and i think cranberry is more intense colorwise but star violet is a veluxe pearl. nothing beats that texture so i don't think you need both and i still reach more for my star violet than cranberry.
i am NC25 if that helps.

I find Fig.1 to be more versatile... I prefer my crease color to be matte or satin, so I don't get much use out of Nocturnelle.

Here are a couple more MAC dupes:
If you have Cranberry, you don't need Sweet Chestnut (and Vice versa).
If you have Next to Nothing, you don't need Shroom...
If you have Sharp, you don't need Bitter (I think that's been said already)...
If you have Dark Edge, you do'nt need Mystery or Brun...
If you have Tempting, you don't need Buckwheat...
If you have Deep Truth you don't need Contrast (or Blue Flame)...
If you have Yogurt, you don't need Lightfall...
If you have Smudged Violet, you don't need Shale...
If you have Signed, Sealed you don't need Shadowy Lady...
**These colors are VERY similar on me, but of course they won't look the same on everyone**

I have Nocturnelle and it's a great deep purple. I use it in my crease, and it works well with browns.

I love it when you guys posts swatches for reference! And thanks to everyone who answers questions that have probably been asked a million times.
I wonder if I can still find Casette somewhere? I saw a MUA on YT use it and have been in lust ever since.

thanks FiestyFemme, Ms Kendra!!
Huge kudos to chickaatthegym for the swatch pic!! i agree with ms. kendra as well. Swatches makes our (makeup?) lives easier!
Oh well.. still havent made up my mind yet. From what i've seen on swatches the difference between Nocturnelle and Fig 1. is the shimmer. right? Do some of you think it doesnt matter which one i take with my skintone? NC44

Without going to look at them, I believe Fig.1 is much more red-based than Nocturnelle. Nocturnelle is more of a pink-based purple, so they're very different on me. I'm around an NC15/20 though, so I'm not sure how much of a difference that makes!

Gotta disagree with this! On me, Tempting is a true golden bronze, while Go has serious olive tones. I wouldn't really compare these two at all!
