Parrot has more green than Blue Calm. In fact, I keep it in my Green Palette (with like colors such as Steamy, Storm Watch, and Newly Minted). Blue Calm is closer in color to Fresh Water. Hope that helps!

Fade next to Fashion??? Are they alike?

I would love to see a comparison of Milan Mode and A Rose Romance lipsticks on fair skin.
Thanks in advance!

Tia, here is Fast Friends l/g layered over top of Fashion Mews l/s on NW 25-30ish skin. The first 2 pics are indoor with flash and the 3rd pic is without flash, near the window. They are a pretty combo and Fast Friends is a lot less pigmented than it looks in the tube.. it is more of a sheer, very light purple gloss with sparkles so it looks great over Fashion Mews

(There's already a swatch of sunset b. and sushi flower floating about) I'd very much like all four shades but ill take anything I can get! Also: Shadowy lady vs. Sketch along with other maroon/darker red-purple colours (in well lit light on warm, light skin) I've seen quite a few compared but are in yellow or dimmed light only. Jewel Blue vs. Cool heat vs. Blue calm vs. Clarity (or Electric Eel) i have swatches showing partials but id love one in the same shot. TIA!

Here ya go....

This was a previous swatch...so I did not do Gesso...because it was much more white matte and not close

(l-r) Unbasic White, White Frost, Crystal Avalanche, Solar White, Dazzlelight, Chill

Indoor

Outdoor

Off topic

Note: I see tons of people making requests but never offering swatches ....wish we had more people that swatched in here...would be so great!

 

[hawaii02]

I would be very appreciative if someone could swatch colors similar to UD's Sin. Would Benefit's Leggy be the same??

[LisaOrestea]

I would love to see a swatch of "blue eve" lipstick from the 2001 eden rocks collection.

Its gonna be a tough one for me to hunt down, and I want to know that it is going to be worth my time first

If it could be an "on lip" swatch, then even better

 

[twilightessence]

This may be a long shot but can someone swatch Ego to the pink side of Too Faced shadow duo Hollywood Ho-Down? Thanks!
