With all this talk of hitting pan on blush it made me think. For no reason whatsoever under any circumstances do I need a blush back up. Lol I have a few MSF backups because I adore the colors but I have never gotten around to them. They just sit. So blush backups I definitely need to stay away from. I will never use them unless I stop buying blush all together. Lol. #makeuprevelations

Hmm, I didn't know it that years to use up one blush even with often use D: I will need to go swatch the blushes on my wishlist in store, in case they are similar colors, hard to tell online. So far I just bought both LE nars blushes and I have tarina tarentino 4blush palette which is so pretty. I bought almost everything from her when they discontinued it lol.
On my wishlist in case somebody can give some insight to the colors if you tried them:
Marc Jacobs Beauty Shameless Bold Blush - Reckless
Shiseido Luminizing Satin Face Color - Tearose
BECCA Mineral Blush - Sweetpea
Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush - Exposed

I swatched my lip pencils from the Promiscious set last night, I'm in LOVE! These were my second NARS purchase ever, can you believe it? The first was Couer Battant. I'm already obsessed with the brand and wanting more. Hehe. Train Bleu is on it's way to me as well!

I'm surprised that the one of the lipsticks from this collection sold out faster than the blush at Sephora. I thought the blush would be first to go

Full Frontal is really nice, but I have about 4 similar shades in different finishes. It's the one lipstick in the collection I'm really drawn to. I wore Short Circuit one day at work, but it's not a shade I would reach for as often as FF.

I just bought the Nars' Super Orgasm lip gloss and the multi-purpose blush, lips, eye shadow. I like it. Does anyone on here use the Super Orgasm blush stick. Do you like it? Do you really put it on your eyes?

I tried on Full Frontal and Goodbye Emmanuelle and while I loved both, I had to concede that FF is very similar to a lot of the purple-plum shades that Mac has released (Up the Amp, Spitfire, Style Curve, Bust Out...) all of which I have bought. I'm still likely to bring it home, since I appear to be powerless to resist such shades, but for the time being, I just picked up GE. It is a beautiful shade and very original. Strangely, despite my insanely oversize lipstick collection, I don't have a lot of pinks like this. I feared it might be too bright for everyday wear, but it's actually just restrained enough that I can get away with it. Wearing it today and I love the feel of it on my lips. I want to get more of these for the formula alone.

Well now you're making me want to try this one on. When I walked up to try FF someone said it looked the same as the RiRi Boy (ultra-matte Up the Amp) I was wearing. Except I was wearing Strong Woman. (This person doesn't own any MAC and just sees me in the lippies I own.) In any case we decided it was similar to other things I own and SC was the most unique that would suit me. Since I just watched parts of Goodbye Emmanuelle I may as well give her a try if not just to make me giggle.

On me FF looks very different from UTA or RRB. It has quite a bit more pink and the finish is nothing like Amplified, let alone Retro Matte.

SC is my favourite of the Cinematic lipsticks. I haven't done any side by side comparisons but I can't think of any dupes off the top of my head.

Sorry if this has been discussed already, but has anyone seen last tango available inside a sephora store? I see that it's not on the website and don't want to go to my sephora for no reason. Thanks!

I feel the same way about Goodbye Emmanuelle, love it to pieces. I have not one lipstick similar to it I normally don't go for such a light pink but I decided to give it a try and man is it pretty and I can use it for everyday. I actually wore it to work and normally I don't do lipsticks to work but this one is such a pretty muted color. As for Full Frontal it is gorgeous and while I also have tons that are a bit similar this one stands out in how comfortable it is to wear and how pretty it is. I hope NARS makes many more cinematic lipsticks I love this formula.

I haven't seen it in 2 of the stores I've been to. I picked it up on the NARS counter.

I'm thinking Sephora is not carrying Cambodia eye shadow nor Last Tango lipstick. I had to order from Nordstrom, but I price matched to get the 20% off.

Full Frontal also reminds me of Feel My Pulse which people say looks pinky purple on me.

I have and love Up The Amp that is why I didn't get FF, they were to similar and I'm not the one to buy various lippies of the same shade.

I forgot to check out Goodbye E. today dang it, I wanted to see how it looks on me and how it compares to YU satin pencil which I already have.

I don't have Yu but I think that one is more of a darker fuschia pink while GE is a light bright pink

I ordered both blushes on Sephora during the VIB sale and cannot wait to get them! I only need Goodbye Emanuelle lipstick and I'm done.
