Hi everyone!
I was shocked when I finally saw Orchidazzle in person because none of the photos I had seen online were anything like it looked on my lips! In person when using magenta lipliner, it looks like a sheer version of STILETTO- my all time favorite lipstick.

Had I known this, I would have ordered MANY of these- as I have looked for this color for a long time. Perhaps these photos will help anyone else like me who has to order MAC sight unseen.

Here are my photos for you to see

I wanted to mention that in the second photo, the Strange Hybrid side also has Prize Petal gloss over it too. The other side is just the Prize Petal gloss by itself.

Also, on both photos, the liner is not UNDER the lipsticks it is just on the rims and blended in a little.

i may have messed up the labeling on the two purples...the very last swatches on the far left of each are Plum Dressing and Hepcat, but i may have reversed them...i forget.

This is not the best picture, but hopefully it will be helpful. These are all the teal shadows that I own on NW15 skin.

Top Row (L-R): Brill, Surreal, Zonk Bleu!, Electric Eel, Plumage
Bottom Row (L-R): Steamy, Moonflower, Meadowland, Pompous Blue, Blue Edge

On me, Moonflower is VERY similar to Zonk Bleu!

I know I'm a little late but I just picked up Hothouse today. IRL I would say there's slightly more fuschia-purplish tinge than in my pictures.
