Comfort & Joy is REALLY pretty!
I paired in with Daylight & Twilight Falls from Naturally on my eyes, Redhead to highlight, Tarte Exposed Blush.
Used Too Faced Perfect Nude Lipliner to line my lips.
Picture doesn't come close to showing how nice the color is!

You look gorgeous! I loooove that Tarte blush. I have five of them! I also have that lip liner and I just bought Comfort & Joy, so I will try that combo out tomorrow. Thanks, Pixie!

Awww! Thank you sweetness!
I use that lipliner with EVERYTHING!! It really is the perfect nude. And Tarte blushes are
LOVE
!! I only have 3, but Exposed is a staple! It's what I reach for when I just don't know what to pair with a look. It doesn't take away from a look, just adds warmth to it. Looks like we have the same taste!

Pixie, your IRL swatch is pushing me over the edge. I find a need for FF and C&J. Come to think of it, RP is sort of calling my name too. Best I wait first to see if Narcissus from DG fulfils my needs in the fleshy purple area first, however...

Can we back to mac for these?? I'm thinking no but doesn't hurt to ask
Also, does anybody know how Tour de Fabulous compares to Pink Lemonade or Lychee Luxe??
Earlier in this thread TdF was compared to PL and said to be similar but more pigmented...IIRC

You are all such DOLLS!!! Thanks for the love!
OOOOOOooooooo NARCISSUS is AH-Mazing! Now I am thoroughly enjoying my C&J, but I'd have easily passed it up for Narcissus. Definitely check that one out first! Hope you like it!

Famously Fab seemed the closest to Narcissus to me but I held off on it - the Cremesheen Glasses are just all around so much nicer than the regular lipglass, that even though FF is a touch sillier and cuter, I'd still opted for Narcissus.
In fact, the only gloss I picked up was Comfort & Joy, because it had that great greyish tone that always looks good on me. I still haven't opened it up yet, though. I'd like to get through Vacant from GP a little more first and then move on to C&J (even though it's certainly not a true dupe).
Now, the LIP PENCILS, on the other hand......why are people not raving like maniacs about them??? They are all simply gorgeous, long lasting, not too drying to use over the whole lip and so many great, useful colors.
Just Wonderful is simply a must for all those purple and mauve lipsticks and glosses MAC's been churning out - it won't add redness to what you put on top of it and it looks soft and natural on the lips on its own or when your gloss or lipstick starts wearing out. I have red lips and it doesn't react to them - it stays very true to color. 100% meant for Narcissus too!
My other must have is Just My Type, since it's great for adding definition to black and cool vampy colors like Cyber, without adding any red. If you go for those sorts of colors it's pretty much an HG pencil, so much better than any dark red and safer and less harsh colorwise than using a black eye pencil.
Lasting Sensation is less orange than my beloved Temperature Rising, but just as bright - will be great with Party Parrot if you don't want to add more red or orange to it. Entertain Me is more true orange than Lasting Sensation - I thought I bought it yesterday, since I already loved Lasting Sensation and figured I could mix the two to get a match for Temperature Rising, but lo and behold, my MA forgot to include it. It might actually be closer to Temperature Rising overall and will be great for future crazy oranges that will be out in the summer, for sure! I also got Embrace Me, which is more neon than All Styled Up and Hip 'n Happy, which is bluer, softer and less milky than In Synch. Seriously, all these particular shades are fantastic. I'm usually pretty conservative about how many lip pencils I own, but seriously all these colors are particularly gorgeous and don't fight with your natural lip color or what you're putting on top, like other previous MAC l/ps. The pro longwear l/ps are really long lasting, but these are not much less serviceable, with some really perfect colors that are way more useful than the PL ones and a MUCH better value - much more product for less $. I went to town on 'em and am sure they're going to get worn down to nubs.

That is such a sweet thing to say! Thank you VampOwl! Actually, I have been in the modeling/entertainment buisness for over 12 years now. Starting my transition into talent/model recruitment, but I still do jobs and have a pretty solid spokesmodeling career to work through. I have my own show on the Strip in Las Vegas for a year that is currently on hiatus due to our casino shutting down. So, I'm always busy busy in some capacity! Have never been a part of any online community to share my love of makeup though, so I'm happy to be here! Still new to taking pics of myself, so I'm thrilled at the positive responses. Everyone on here really is SO very nice & positive!
Tarte blushes are SO great! I only own 3. Exposed, Adored (which was only available in a LE set), and Tipsy. I highly recommend Exposed! It's a staple, "goes with anything" neutral! I don't think you can go wrong whatever shade(s) you choose!

I love Tarte blushes! Exposed is a must have. The perfect nude pink that loks good with anything. I also love Glisten, Blushing Bride, and Tipsy. I like the warmer blushes, but if you are cooler toned than I would look at Dollface and Adored. Really pretty cool-toned pinks. I have Adored. It has pretty silver glitter in it, but doesn't look glittery and weird on the face.

Your very welcome! And I'm sorry about your casino shutting down, that must have been tough. But I'm sure you still have a great career ahead of you!
I went to Ulta today to check out the Tarte blushes and guess which was the only sold out blush- Exposed! I may hit Sephora tomorrow and see if they have it in stock because I swatched it and it looked great. Tipsy also looks nice!
By the way, I ended up getting TdF l/g and I love it. I wore it over Flamingo today since its like they were made for each other!

Adored was an LE in a Sephora beauty insider set, but it will be re-released in Tarte's four new blushes for Spring.
