If you would like a lighter red than i suggest Scarlet Ibis. I love that one!Red lips used to be my signature look. I've gotten away from that but would love to get a couple more to round out my collection. I only have VG1 (love it but too vampy for the office) and Ruffian Red. I'll probably get one from Marilyn if I can pull off the colour and will almost certainly get the brick red from this one.
I love tawny cheeks on other people!wow, i'm kind of surprised this collection isn't grabbing you gals....I dunno what it is, but I just love the feeling of rich lips, tawny cheeks, sultry eyes that have depth, sparkling gloss.
MAC is certainly bringing the reds, but that's ok with me considering how picky red is - if it's not perfect, it can be horrible, so bring on plenty of variety!
They have more of a creaminess to them and really good staying power. Its actually, IMO, one of the best formulas.How close would you guys say Mattenes are to the new matte formula?
Oh dear. I haven't tried a Mattene yet, but I really don't need to start branching out into different formulas. Must... resist...They have more of a creaminess to them and really good staying power. Its actually, IMO, one of the best formulas.

Agreed. They feel soooo good on the lips.[COLOR=6600CC]I agree with everything you said about the Mattene lipsticks maneater. Not only are the creamy and have great staying power, they also seem to keep my lips moist. My lips usually get pretty dry throughout the day even if I keep reapplying balm. When I wear my mattene l/s my lips don't seem to dry out as much as with my other lipsticks/finishes.[/COLOR]
The mattenes should be tried at least onceOh dear. I haven't tried a Mattene yet, but I really don't need to start branching out into different formulas. Must... resist...

yeah nothing is really standing out to me either. however when i see swatches i may think very differently! lol!Thank you, Paparazziboy.
There's not much in this collection that stands out to me. Maybe 2 or 3 items at most, which makes a change.
I like the way they called the eyeshadow duo "marché aux puces" instead of the English meaning - Flea Market lol
I just remembered today that last year with Posh Paradise my MUA told me they might make the mattenes permanent if they sell well. Since we are missing Hazy Lilac and some other mattenes that were in the picture we saw earlier, i'm thinking there might be another collection later on with mattenes that will become permanent. I'm really hoping for that.
