I use a lot of different highlighters, so I'm showing you a couple of shadows I use. These are on my NC 25/30 skin, with beiging s/s underneath, which is what I normally use as a base. HTH!

I miss my Tantress - Glama Ray dupe?
THE SWATCH HERE IS MY REQUEST - IT HAS NOT BEEN ANSWERED!!!
This might be a long shot but does anyone have Glama Ray (Tantress) that they could swatch with similar colors? Glama Ray, Earthly Delight, and Goldbit are my HG colors and I'm running low. Help!!
It's a warm brownish tan orangey lustre. It looks kind of similar to mythology but less pink.
Thanks!
Here's a pic of GLAMA RAY with some other colors. The match has yet to be found!!!
http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p...i/IMG_2617.jpg
(L-R)
orange, amber lights, mythology, GLAMA RAY, copper sparkle, expensive pink
romp, ?, ?, EARTHLY DELIGHT, chocolate brown, ?, embark
(forgot the order - b-rich, antiqued, bronze I think)

i can't do proper FOTDs past my bedtime, but i'm tryin demmit.. :P
here are some grey swatches. I don't have Silver Ring, but I can compare Swan Lake to Anti-Establishment to Print.

without flash

swatch on eyes
I like Print to smoke out the outer corners, because it isnt as harsh as Carbon, the texture is better too. Anti Establishment and Swan Lake are *very* close, Swan Lake has a tinge more silver/blue, Anti Establishment is slightly more metallic and makes it look darker. Both are frosts.

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread!
Can someone please make a comparison swatch of MAC Club versus Too Faced Label Whore? I'd prefer it swatched on the wrist or hand, not on the eye.
ETA: As above, but can someone make a comparison swatch of Floral Fantasy (Strange Hybrid) versus Endless Love (Diana Ross, Nocturnelle). Thank you!

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread! Hard to Please vs. Trousseau
Could someone please post swatches of Hard to Please (beau & tempt me quads) vs. Trousseau (boudoir hues quad)?
Or simply a color that is very similar to Hard to please? It is one of my favorites.

Thanks in advance 
Here's a starter:

Bombshell, Politely Pink and Classical lipstick swatched on the inside wrist with NW15 concealer as a base.
I'll sort out my giant collection of ultra-pale pink and neutral lipsticks tomorrow and do a giant swatch.

Along with the above request, I'd like to add Endless Love/Purple Shower and Stars 'n' Rockets?
As a separate swatch, could someone swatch Magic Dust vs. Rose Blanc?
That's a lot! Thanks a ton to anyone who can help out!

Hey all,
Here's Entremauve pigment (top) vs. Fertile eyeshadow (bottom) on NW 20 skin with no base:
Inside of the wrist in natural light:
On me at least, Entremauve is brighter and has more pink speckles in it; it also has more of a blue frost. Hope this helps!

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread!
Hello!
I know this may be a tall order, but does anyone have pics of all of the beauty powders made (or most) together like I see MSF photos sometimes, or even better, swatches of them all on NW20 skin? Thanks SO much!!
