They're all pretty on you. You're skipping FOF?

I haven't been out to pick up Dynamo liner yet, but I wore RR with Cherry liner the other day and it created this slightly gradient look. Going from red to a coral-red look. I love it. To my surprise RR is my favorite from this collection.

Thanks for the hints. It wasn't clear to me that some of these were LE, or i'd have jumped on FOD sooner. When i was on Nordstrom's site earlier today, FOD was nowhere to be seen
Liba, my skin tone is neutral, between 15 & 20, but i have a personal weak spot for violets and purples. Thanks for being so... uh... supportive
Other than rosacea pink cheeks, some dark spots along my jaw line, and crepey spots on my eyelids, my face is mostly unwrinkled, and my skin care keeps it looking kinda dewy, plus i use a moisturizing foundation when i wear one. I have Dominate, which is bluer than FOD, so i'm a fan - and i'm hoping TTT will be similar to FOD, assuming it isn't impossible to get, given all the RiRi collection drama...
None of the other colors in this collection really look like i can wear them, so i guess it's a big skip all around. Ah, well. Y'all look lovely in your lipsticks.

Thanks again
You know, I'm really not sure. I'm not excited that much. Also, I'm really not a FOD type of person but I said let me give it a try. You know the wine color family. I was hoping it didn't look brown (yuck)..lol

I haven't tried FOD on my lips yet. It looked pretty in swatches and on everyone so I got it because it didn't look "too" brown on anyone. I don't really want brown. I'm not that huge on 'wine' either but I'd rather wine than brown. I'll try it on soon.Thanks againYou know, I'm really not sure. I'm not excited that much.

yep, the more natural PLWL colors all lean super brown. I'm not sure what was up with that. Whatever color you get, you're going to love it and suddenly it's going to be a lot easier to justify that high price, lol! Another option is get whatever color that matches the color you most often wind up wearing on long days or the color you know you always gravitate towards when you have events with a lot of eating and drinking, because that's where these pencils really shine.

Thank you liba!! I like RH tooLove 'em all on you!!! I particularly like the way RH compliments your personality - it's a really down to earth, feminine mood! That hat is so cute too! Whoops - didn't mean to imply we're members of the Cruella de Ville club, honI know my skin is great for my age and attitude will take anyone above and beyond the date on the calendar, but these retro mattes are demanding. When they work, it's ravishing
but I'm pretty sure we all have days where a little extra fairy dust, in the form of a formula that augments the fullness and curves of the lips more than ultra flat matte does, comes in pretty handy! 'Can't fool all of 'em all the time, but I'm down for a little slight of hand whenever I can get away with it - I'd be lying if I told you otherwise
.. I couldn't wait to wear my hats again for fall..lol
So pretty allthingsglam!! Girl, you and me both with the cold..lolll.. Irritating. That color is super pretty on you girl :eyelove:He is a pic of fod didn't post a full pic have a cold and been looking a hot mess lol.but I did manage to play with fod some more today

You look SO GORGEOUS!!!!!i love fixed on drama! it lasted ALL morning-coffee, water, waffles, apple! It faded slightly after my burger and fries. I used a balm in the am-as I always do while I'm getting ready for the day and then applied from the tube when I was ready do my face. I received many compliments and inquiries on my lip color that day. It's really great for any ladies that are on the fence. I must say I love it against the palest skin tones too. It just works all around. I'm also going to get flat out fabulous when it restocks. So I've been looking at swatch after swatch of RR and AFU -so one is like party parrot and the other is moxie? I'm confused. I have moxie. love it. but I love the retro matte formula. Just trying to figure out which is best. What do you think gals? I'm leaning towards RR as b/c I never got party parrot but it really doesn't seem like PaPa to me...IDK....looks like moxie! Although in some swatches it looks like a pinky red not a coral pinky red. Hell, AFU looks like moxie too. lol
FOD no liner
ALL the shades are going to look great on you.
And, your food list made me hungry
