I agree with you guys about the Color 4 Quad.

I'm surprised that Lavender Wind is sold out on the website. I didn't think a lot of people were into that color!

Not sure if this was discussed already but which ombres are a MUST? I haven't tried any on but from the looks they don't really scream at me...
plus I have 9 blushes..kind of feel i'm overloaded for now. Thoughts?

Vintage Grape. I, personally, don't own anything like it. It is wonderful as a contouring powder.

I want to get Ripe Peach and Vintage Grape Ombre's

Ripe peach will look so pretty layered over the cremeblend blushes.
 
I got quite a few items from this collection, but the ones I love the most are the Fresh Salmon and Rose Maiden lipsticks.

I'm a little disappointed with the texture of the Pigment Stack (1) because it seems so gummy and hard to work with. That's my only gripe about it.

I was wondering if it is worthy to get very violet AND colour 3 quad...
Btw, what's the best: Dirty Plum Blush (coming with Riveting) or Vintage Grape blush ombre?

Thanks for your answers ladies

NC50 for reference

i would get the Vintage Grape since it's two different colors into one and you can you the darker purple to contour.

I got the Colour 4 Quad and returned it. It was nice, but is was incredibly boring to me. It was nicely pigmented although Manilla Paper (the white color) didn't swatch as nice as I'd hoped. I do have a VERY large collection however and it's beginning to take more and more to impress me. I also ordered:
Hot Hot Hot shadow- Kept this, its wicked awesome!!!
Purple Rage- Pretty but I have colors like this.
Gold Dust- Again pretty but I can do without it. Has a pretty dose of orange though.
Raddiccio- Did NADA for me.
Vintage Grape- Gorgeous kept it!! So pretty but it doesn't look like it does in the pot on me. Kind of like a warm neutral berry color.
Lavender Wind- Sheer, shimmery, gorgeous and I kept it! Awesome over other glosses and lipsticks.

All in all I was disappointed in what I ordered and only kept three things and I sent the rest back. I exchanged for Kumquat, Fresh Salmon, and Electric Fuschia. Waiting for those and will let you all know how I feel about those. I'm an NC45 for reference.

What color gloss are you pairing with Fresh Salmon? I'm getting that one too but I want to be sure to use a gloss that does not change the color. I may just use a clear gloss

I tried both and they were very pretty. Both frosty but not overly frosty.

Beigeland lipstick reminded me of a more toned down version of Gel lipstick.

Bronzilla reminded me of Coconutty lipsticks younger cousin, but not an exact dupe.

The quad #4 was a hit today as well, I realized that is pretty much foolproof and I can't mess up while using it. 2 thumbs up!



I was late on falling in love with Ripe Peach Ombre because I thought it was similar to NARS Gina and Gilda blushes (I have both).

But I caved and decided to get it because of all the raves....and it looked really nice when I tried it on in the store.

I was wondering the same thing. Its such an original shade of coral, I have nothing like it. So I want to use a gloss that is a perfect match, so it does not distort the color.

When I tried it alone I felt like I needed a gloss. I like glossy lips. LOL

I'm surprised that no one is really talking about Hot Hot Hot eye shadow. It was the only shadow that I purchased from this collection. It seems to be a color that will really compliment WOC

Anyone buy this? How are you loving it?

Actually, I'm not pairing a gloss with it. I love the original color. If you were to use a gloss, I'd say go with a clear! Or *maybe* Enchantress, but I dunno.

I have this also. It is a very pretty color, but it takes a lot of it for it to show up. I find that satin finishes aren't as pigmented and you really have to pack it on. I used the Hot Hot Hot over Rubenesque paint pot.

Would you mind swatching Ripe Peach with Gina and Gilda? I've been wondering how it compares on WOC skin. I think it's very pretty too, but my budget are very limited this time

I wore Fresh Salmon yesterday by itself and loved it. It's perfect on it's own. Those are the kinds of lippies I love. I tried putting Gold Dust on it, but I didn't like it. Felt like it broke down the lip color, so I took it off and reapplied my lipstick.
Lavender Wind is fantastic and I'm not shocked it sold out.
Quad 4 is amazing. I was totally going to skip it, but going to Mac I went on a rampage and bought a lot of stuff. It's gorgeous and it's not easy to dupe it and you'll realize that once you start to work with it.

Also, if you want to wear something with Fresh Salmon, I would look into the newest Bobbi Brown collection. She has an AMAZING coral collection out right now. I bought 2 lipsticks from it. It's my first BB products ever since I was never impressed with her line (I know, gasp). She has, I think, 3 glosses to compliment the coral lipsticks and Fresh Salmon would fit right in.
Last note, I wore Gina blush by Nars with Fresh Salmon yesterday and it was great. I'm not upset about missing out on Ripe Peach at all. So, ladies try Gina. I don't know how it compares to Ripe Peach in a side by side comparison, but I do know it looks great with FS.

I have Hot Hot Hot and I love it! It doesn't take that much for it to show up on me but I am using it over Urban Decay's Primer Potion. I pair it with pinks, purples, golds and ambers, greens and blues. Ok pretty much anything. It's awesome. I gave a mini review on it a few posts up.
