I like it, but it is subtle, but it works well underneath other shades, like Dolce Vita.

I am an NW45 and I bought Torrid and I hate that I did no color pay off at all.

I love Dollymix and Stark Naked blushes! Put both together and it's so pretty![/quote

I keep reading about Stark Naked. Is this a must have for WOC? I missed it at the counter but I may want to order it today while shipping is free.

 

[seymone25]

Aww.. Thanks sis. You made me blush..

I use Peachtwist alot especially with Nars Mounia as a contour, I like Cherry blushcreme, and Ambering Rose and for Nars its Mounia and Taj Mahal.

I love love love using Bronze CCB as a highlight too. I also have Premeditated CCB and I just used MUFE #72 e/sthe other day on my cheeks and its one of my new faves!

Well I suppose that depends on your coloring. Stark Naked was too light for me.

What do you think about the NARS Casino Bronzer? Dos it show as more of a highlighter?

Yes. Subtle. If you want a great shimmery bronzer with more of an effect try LORAC's, or Stila Sun #3 (which is discontinued but very easy to find) or Prescriptives' Bronzing Trio in Dark. Also Bobbi Brown makes awesome matte bronzers.

I posted this on another section on Spectra, but can anyone share their opinion on what shade or similar shade of lipstick Mo'nique is wearing in this photo? :

I can think of a couple of lipglasses that might be similar-Lovechild l/g and Viva Glam V l/g. I don't have too many lipsticks in that shade so I am not sure.

Any thoughts?

Is format similar to raizin? I have format but I want raizin too! <3

 

[Regality101]

MAC's mineralize blush in "Love thing" is really pretty.

Anyone know any good contouring/highlighting colors???

I love to contour with Blunt, Reed, or the Sculpt and Shape Duo. I also love to highlight with a CARGO blush called Topeka. It is Gorgeous! MSF's also work well for highlighting.

No they aren't. Raizin is Matte, Format is Frost. And besides that the colors are just very different, so it definitely warrants having both.

My first post I figured should be here with my NW45 & up sisters. The blushes I use are:

Fab- (Barbie collection)
Ambering Rose
Lovecrush (for some reason when i go to Mac I only see Loverush but this was my first Mac blush so they may have changed the name...same color)
Plum D'Bois- probably one of my favs right now (from cult of cherry)
Breezy- I was scared to try this at first because it's so pink but it looks good on my skin
Love Joy

And NYX Blush in copper
