Ugly in the pot, beautiful on

Both Dovefeather and Flirty Number look plain and boring in the pot. Vanilla and Pink Opal pigments too. all four are stunning on.

Strada blush - I never in one million years would have picked it up - it looks dead and corpse-like in the pan. If a MA hadn't insisted it would be perfect for me I wouldn't have tried it. It is just the sheerest most natural and warming shade ever.
It is my HG contour shade now.

I definitely agree with Dovefeather, though it's not as nice on me as Behold is. Banshee is fairly icky, but for some reason is super pretty when worn (especially on top of Blitz & Glita as e/s base, yes: base!).

I completely agree!!! Patina is one of my all time favourite colours, but it's not something that you are drawn to straight away in the pot. These are both seriously under-rated colours!!!

I agree about Flirty Number. I ordered it without seeing it in person first and when I first saw it I was really disapointed-- then I put it on and wow! Gorgeous!

I totally agree with you all about Dovefeather, Woodwinked, Blue Brown pigment, and Strada blush! I love them! They look terrible in the pot but are soooo gorgeous on. I think Little Minx and Mink Pink are also a lot prettier on than in the palette.

LOL I can't agree with you about Banshee or Vex though. I think they looked like crap on. at least I couldn't get them to work. . . I swapped mine away.

soba, ricepaper, flirty number, botanical all look pretty blah to me in the pots but they look lovely on the eyes

Ohmigosh no one has said CRYSTAL.

It is such an overlooked color and it's beautiful to bring out violet and blue colors.
