I never pegged SR as a possible dupe for RFL. I have SR, so now I have to rethink RFL.
In my eyes they're not similar at all. SR is lighter and frosty. Anyway I have SR and Ripe Peach and RFL is like the bottom 1/3 of Ripe Peach. I use that part the most so I'm gonna be really happy with a separate version. :)

OH NO! I am LOVING Ripe for LOVE blush. I swore I wouldn't buy any more blushes for awhile.

That blush is gorgeous and it will be a test of willpower to not buy it. I just got Marine Life and I have EL Peach Nuance (supposed Ripe Peach dupe) so I'm going to try hard to resist.

I think I can actually skip the Bare My Soul quad. I have more neutrals than I need and can't justify $44 just for When in Rio...

BMS was already available today on the german Douglas site, but nothing else. Looks like they accidentally put it up. And it's sold out now, so that sucks for the people who were looking forward to ordering it next week when the collection launches officially. I hope they don't pull a stunt like that with the blushes, I'll be disappointed if I miss out. But I don't feel like stalking 24/7 either.
I'm not too worried about the bronzers selling out fast.

Noooooooooooooooooo

I just read it :( Now I'm really sad. I hope to get it somewhere else.

whaaaaaat to geeeeet EEEK!!!

im excited to see T's swatches on the lippies. Altered Beige seems like it'll be TOO sheer n dmn near clear on my lips plus im not a nude lip type of gal (even though i like pure zen and cozy up) but im interested in see more swatches of FMP but im sure even if it comes off pinkish u can pull the purple out wit a liner.

BMS-im still on the fence about but im just envisioning using Eclair with it to take it to its full potential of greatness!!
RFL- ugggh its so tempting but im not totally sold
HN-i wanna love it but i feel like it'll swatch on my face the same as other pink blushes in my stash

OK, so here's my dilemma.

I don't use bronzer because I find them too orangy and I don't care for the so-called "healthy, sun-kissed look". I didn't even wear blush until about 1.5 years partly because I enjoyed (still do, in a way) looking like I'd risen from the dead and partly because I didn't know what to do with it.

But I really like the look of Sun Dipped! It looks a lot more cool-toned than other bronzers I've seen (whether or not a bronzer can be cool-toned is another story), so maybe it would be a good starting point for this bronzer n00b. Or not, I really don't know. Waddya gals think?

Hm... with all the talk of Caliente being gritty, it's dampening my enthusiasm. Does anyone know if these lipsticks are grittier than the original Dazzle formula? I didn't mind those at all. I'm also wondering, though, if I can get away with something so bronze, even if it does have violet in in. I've been forced into the realisation that bronze-brown shades just don't work on my lips.

I'm a lot like you - I love being ghastly pale. But I dabble in bronzer during the summer and use it mostly like a blush (maybe like a highlighter if I'm feeling bold) to just add a little warm glow to my otherwise cool face. If Sun Dipped is subtle (which swatches have indicated thus far), it should be good for what you described!

What bronzer do you use? Sun Dipped looks pretty subtle on swatches but I haven't seen it IRL. I wouldn't describe my complexion as cool-toned, but more as neutral (actually, it would be more on the nondescript greyish side of the spectrum if such a spectrum ever existed lol). I probably could use a bit of bronzer when it's really sunny so that I don't scare off animals and small children as much.
