My two favorite lipsticks from this collection have to be DD &Snapdragon. I wasn't really into any of these, but after playing with them in daylight, I'm happy with my purchases. Though it's no lie, I'm more of an Amplified/Satin/Matte girl. Dreaming Dahlia sort of reminds me of Ablaze (one of my absolute favorites) but in Lustre finish. It's more wearable, but they could be cousins.

After seeing Fleur d'Coral, I think I would love that one. It kind of reminds me of Pure Zen, my so-far favorite nude. Can anyone swatch them side-by-side?

Dreaming Dahlia looks a bit like Hibiscus which makes me really happy that I ordered it.

No problem! Hm, I think Raspberry Swirl & Rose Lily applied the best. But I like RS more because it's less swipes I have to do for the pigmentation I want.

&Yes, after playing with the lipsticks in daylight, I have decided DD is amazing. Go for it!



I do like Petal Power on! I applied it with the 116 first this morning, and the sheen and pigmentation wasn't outrageous. Then after reading Liba's review about using the 187, I tried it and the sheen and pigmentation showed way more. I like it with the 187 because that pretty pink comes off amazingly, though my current problematic breakout skin prefers the more subtle application achieved from the 116 because I feel like the high sheen from the 187 accentuates the breakout I'm having on my cheek :( . The blush is really pretty, but I still really want to try out Azalea in the Afternoon. Let me know how you like that one!

I wanted to BU DD but was going to do it after my order arrives tomorrow... I didn't know about the increase. Not that $1 will hurt, but its psychological I guess

Thanks for all the info on PP & the brushes. I have a feeling Azalea is going to be so beautiful. It would look great on you. But then, I think everything looks so beautiful on you!

I think the "psychological" aspect is definitely what is frustrating me. I complained to my mother of the increase, and when I told her how much, she laughed at me.

Set me back into reality with that! As she's a bit of a bargain hunter like me.

Maybe the price increase is why Mac was so tight with info? With no swatches coming out until later more people are forced to buy after the increase. Just a thought! Lol

Me too! I can't find it on the CB and I've found it on evilbay for around $35-40 but I've hesitated to spend that much on a lipstick that probably retailed for $16.50.

I bought some on ebay for prices like that.... yeah and shadows. well now i figure if im gonna spend 30 or 40 on a lipstick or shadow im going to YSL or some other high end line screw it! And jus concentrate on buying new collections instead of chasing old ones. i have done too much of the ebay chasing.

I would like to see these 2 swatched together, because I was hoping to get Hibiscus.
