@elegant, here is a swatch of Afternooner bronzer (bottom/left) and Golden Rinse (top/right). I think on me it almost has reddish tones...weird that it looks yellow on you. This is artificial bathroom lighting, so I'm sure they look more different in sunlight but still close on me.

The bronzer has reddish tones on my skin as well.

Did you get any of the lipsticks Haven?

 

[Winthrop44]

Ugh! It looked fairly orangey on me too when I first applied it, then it turns the coral red I was wondering too what my lips would look like with RAM on. Seems like I'm 99% unhappy with those shades when I try them on.

Most descriptions I've read are along the lines of warm peachy beige, so I am going to pass.

I got les mepris, otranto, and pipa. Love all three.

I have to use a very light hand with les mepris, or I look sort of crazy too.

I have a few more sitting in my Sephora cart waiting for the sale. I am still debating about them, but they will probably mysteriously go out of stock once the sale starts.

I'm dying for lip swatches of otranto. I'm definitely getting pipa.

Haven, is Otranto as pretty on as it looks in pics?

Eh...that's too bad. I loved how it looked in some of the early photos, like it was a nice slight pink, slight mauve nude.

For whatever reason that I can't figure out Chanel Suzy, which Christine mentions as a dupe of Les Mepris, is much more wearable on me. I think I may get Pipa too.

LOL! Same thoughts. Off to look at the swatches - thanks!

 

[elegant-one]

Once again they all look really pretty on her. LOVE Pipa! I also really like the shades Carriacou, Scandola & Otranto.

Otranto is very pretty!

BTW if you are impatient like me there is a ten percent off Sephora code active right now. Just ordered solar affair and Aphrodite. I have no self control

Her lip swatches of pipa and otranto are very similar to what these shades look like on me.
I don't have her perfectly shaped lips though LOL

I made a purchase! The Afternooner and the new shade in the creme blush! I liked more than I thought but I exercised some restraint. I liked Purple Noon and Pipa and Cala something. I liked one other lip color but I can't remember the name. I swatched Temptation Waits but it didn't scream summer to me so I skipped it. I may get it at some point though. The SA advised me to use the creme brush for the blush. How did she know that it was on my list? I think I may go back for it this week. Oh and I like the new shade in the bronzer but I'm undecided on the large or small size.

Do you think the new bronzer is dark enough for us browner folk? I've been eyeing it but thinking I should just stick to Guerlain's Ebony one.
