When it comes to msf with veining you are wayy better off going in person and looking through them and picking the one you want.

True! But I can't go the store on release day (and msfs like these are sold out in no time) so I have to order it online. :( Sucks though.

So this years SR is definitely lighter than 2012's....

I even rubbed the top to see if there was darker veining through it... But it doesn't look like there is

Aw :( well that stinks! Hopefully they'll go through them if you return it and get you a nice one! My macys takes normally at least a day to sell out of stuff. (Except riri) lol

For the ladies curious about comparable shades, I found a couple of similar shades in my stash. I didn't want to shame my self and pull out all my purples!

L-R Heavenly Hybrid (lustre), Feel My Pulse (creamsheen), Midnight Mambo (mineralize rich)

With Flash


Hope this helps!
Thank you! I have FMP, and while there seems to be an obvious difference, trying to save for the April collections, and this seems to be something I can save on, I don't neeeed this (right? lol).

and @SassClassBeauty (how do I make it tag you?) The lip swatches on your blog are much appreciated! I really like dreaming dahlia!

Everything looks so pretty on you!!!!  I hope your next one is better
I hope so too :( I imagined it going so wonderfully with my new SF blush from NARS. I may have to try to get to the I store launch if the next one is bad too...
Ugh, just give it a new name MAC. Save us the disappointment! :lol:
So true!!! I hope it looks flattering on. All the pale beauties may like this better if they didn't like previous years but I was hoping for an exact BU

Thank you so much for comparing :) I was hoping someone would!
I am kind of drawn to the lighter SR! I skipped all the past ones because I figured it was too intense.
Hmm...I am so tempted now to buy

Crap :/ Makes me SO glad I already have a BU. I love mine so much, to think that now SR is not the same anymore breaks my heart. NOT going to buy any this time.

Definitely. :( And you can't return make up in Europe! And (highly coveted) msfs are often sold out in like 30 minutes... they get like 5 or so. :lol: Sometimes I really wish I lived in the US. :lol:

Is Stereo Rose and Nars Torrid the same type of shade? I already have Nars Torrid. I don't want encores lol.
On my skin, they are really quite different, although I love them both. Torrid on the left, SR on the right.  The picture doesn't really do them justice (iPhone and my terrible desk light), but hopefully you can see how great the difference between them is.  SR is lighter, much more shimmery, and slightly pinker.  Applied softly, I find that SR goes nicely with red lipstick just to give me a warm glow, whereas Torrid would definitely be too much.
I'm an NW45. Would Stereo Rose be suitable for me?
