The coral colors will look great over Flamingo l/s from Iris. Now I'm torn between the two! Which one is less sticky/tacky?

That's what I thought, too! I usually wear Pink Lemonade over NARS Niagra, which gives it just a bit of a toned down color but a good amount of sheen.

As far as sticky/tackyness goes, I didn't notice any variable difference between the two lipglasses...they felt the same as a usual lipglass formula. A tad sticky, but still rather smooth, and the colors don't have a tendency to slide around too much.

duckrodeo... You just made me want PL over TdF! I'm all over the place here! Do you have Strange Potion? If so, how does it compare to this lineup?
Thought I could pass on TdF because I have SP, but Shontay convinced me it's different... NOW, PL looks like what I've been looking for!
I've had PL on my list FOREVER... but since it's perm I keep passing it over for the new LE shades!

Ok, who wants to choose my new lipglass, lol?

I'm going to MAC in an hour. Which one of these do I want? I'm kind of torn between Rich & Witty, Comfort & Joy, or one other I can't remember the name of.

For ref., I'm NC/NW 10-15 with red hair, brown eyes.

I know how you feel! I can't decide between Pink Lemonade, Tour de Fabulous, and Partial to Pink Cremesheen Glass. Attack of the corals!

 

[PixieDancer]

Oh NO!! I will NOT look at that Cremesheen! The last thing I need is ANOTHER contender! Ahhhhh! Attack of the corals is right! HeeHee

[VampOwl]

Don't fight it Pixie! Or else the corals will haunt you in your dreams!

But I I think our safest bet is to just get TdF because it is LE. The others will always be there for months to come!

I looove NARS Niagra. I actually got it because it seemed like a pretty close relative to MAC Fresh Salmon l/s minus the gold shimmer. Niagra is definitely more coral than Fresh Salmon, but I like my Niagra/Pink Lemonade combo it defines my lips for those days I don't want to wear bold colors. Power to the corals!

Macys MAC counter was sold out of Comfort and Joy, which I REALLY wanted once I saw it in person. Sad panda.

Oh, well. I'll try a few different counters and the freestanding on Monday.

Im trying to decide if I want these or invest in chromagraph pencils in Red and Magenta

 

[LMD84]

the tour de fabulous gloss will be the only one i pick up i think... although the hot pink does look pretty appealing!

 

[sherm]

I completely overlooked Famously Fab and now I'm in want! I'll have to check around on my break today to see if any of the counters have it. I would've ordered it online but for the fact that it's listed as coming soon—darn!

 

[VampOwl]

The Mac counter I went to today was sold out of Tour de Fabulous l/g . I guess I'm going to have to order it! They had Famously Fab though so I'm thinking about getting that as long as it's more purple than pink.

 

[PixieDancer]

SP is one of my FAVS! I wear it all the time. So, with your description, if I have the middle shade, maybe I don't need TdF... I keep going back and forth! You know I'll end up with BOTH TdF AND PL!! HeeHee

Thanks, happy new year to you all all the lovely Specktrettes as well! 2012 will be full of great makeup

Here are some photos/swatches of Tour de Fabulous as compared with Strange Potion:





My iPhone isn't picking it up but Tour de Fabulous definitely leans more orange while Strange Potion leans more pink. Even with my red undertones I still love both. For reference, I'm an NW.

I love my Magenta chromagraphic pencil. It is so much softer than my regular lip pencils and has better staying power.

I'm really loving the pencils from this collection. Again, Lasting Sensation is my favorite. An awesome coral. I wore it yesterday with Chanel's Genie gloss on top. It lasted all day. The prep and prime lip by Mac is magic. It makes the pencil smooth and helps it last. I used to try and use the pencil on dry lips . It felt like dragging a stone across my lips. Someone had to school me on that. Now, I want to wear lip pencils all the time so I am glad that Mac expanded the colors.
