Ok, are you ready for swatch overload?

Bottom row - Bare My Soul quad: L-R When in Rio, Friendly, Bare My Soul, Romantico.
Swatches are over UDPP, 2 swipes of TR and PA, 1 of everything else. Swelter and When In Rio are definitely the standout shades from each. Swelter looks more purple IRL.

Thank you very much Gracie and peachsuns! So we're all Doctor Who fans here? That's so great, the show is virtually unknown over here so I'm used to puzzled looks whenever I mention it or somebody sees the phone case! I even have the Tardis whooshing sound as ringtone!You look gorgeous, Anneri.:agree:
I like the pairings of the lipstick with lipglasses. I may ended up getting more lip colors than I originally thought.Couple more swatches from german blogs:

When I swatched it instore it was quite a pinky nude and wasn't peachy. I'm sure it could be a perfect nude on you.Karen from MBB looks surprisingly good in Altered Beige. It tones down her pigmented lips a lot more than I thought it could ever and as someone around the same skintone with equally pigmented lips, I wonder if I can pick up Altered Beige + Liquid Passion and have a perfect nude lip for the summer that way. HMMM.![]()
I think you should get sun dipped. I'm NC15 and I'm going to get it I think eventually. I swatched it in store and nude on board looked like it could be quite a wearable bronzer.OK, Really struggling to decide between Sun Dipped & Nude on Board. Every time I read a different review - I change my mind. Please, Please, Please can someone try and help me decide. I'm a red head and an NC15 - so pretty fair and I usually burn in the sun. Ha!
