Geez--Ebony leans pretty orange. Fonce is just PURDY
In my avi I'm only wearing eyeliner & lipstick. The smile & glow came from the big tropical drinks that you can only see in the whole photo----glow by Bacardi's.

Will report back
Eager to hear which one you get but most of all how you like it. I think Shontay was spot on cause I'm loving it!

I'm an NC45 by default, lol I'm one of those that will need mixing 2 colors to get my color, at least in the past when I tried mac f&b foundation I remember the lady mixing C6 with N5 or C5....something like that. but fonce looks good on....so far.

Yay BMG that's so awesome. Great haul---looks like you also picked up a bronzer?? So glad Fonce was "the one".

I think it's sad when anyone has to mix products to make them work. I'm C6 in MAC F & B, my go-to summer foundation because of its sheer
coverage, but I think it could soon be replaced by some of these new products that seem to be working for me. I've worn Joli Teint Foundation
for the past few days but today I'm looking forward to wearing Chanel Perfection Lumiére Velvet for the first time.
I'm so glad you're loving Fonce, so far!

True, but don't let it get aroundETA: I really need a nap because my other comment was about something else entirely.

I got medium, per the SA, now I'm thinking i should have gotten Fonce, which was my initial thought.

I pressed the button medgal on the foundation[COLOR=0000FF] Well I tried the Guerlain Terracotta Joli Teint Healthy Glow Fluid Foundation in Fonce and I LOVE it. First, the[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] color match is spot on! There has just a very faint non-overpowering fragrance, (cit[/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]rus maybe) which I prefer.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]That I required only one pump of the product is in and of itself a miracle---given the size of my ample forehead. [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] I used my Chanel Blending Foundation brush # 7. [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]The finish is[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]smooth and flawless, [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]and dare I say---it actually[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] makes me look younger. I've repeatedly checked the product's performance and experienced no oxidation. I did[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] not finish/set it with a[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]powder [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]because frankly, I forgot to. For today's look, I applied my newly acquired Guerlain[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] Terracotta Bronzer in 07. I applied it over Tom Ford's shade & Illuminate 02. The two products worked [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]well [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]together to give me a look that I get from the sun----glowing tan w/o the harmful rays of the sun. I purchased the[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] bronzer brush, not because it's necessary, but because I suffer w/a brush [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]fet[/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]ish.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] Thanks ladies--you enabled me but you enabled me well---you know who you are---not mentioning any names-- [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] Shontay & Charismafultv[/COLOR][COLOR=393939] [/COLOR] [COLOR=393939] [/COLOR]

Haven't purchased one yet- I'm on a tight budget this week- but I took swatches of all the new Rouge Gs:
I couldn't get Rose Glacé to show up at all. There's a bit of shine at the left where I tried to. Other than that, l to r, you have: Geraldine, Geneva, Gaëtane, Gladys, Rose Grenat, Galiane To my eye rose grenat is the must-have, although it does look like a cross between Madame Batifole and Provocation, which were already fairly close. Gaëtane and Geneva are a little less opaque than the others.

Temptalia has swatches up if you click on the swatch tab. Gladys looks like a dupe of Provocative. Definitely no need for both. Madame Batifole is a little darker than Rose Grenant.

Great swatches Katred, I really hope you will pick up Rose Grenat.

These things can vary depending on whose skin they're swatched on, but Gladys looked much closer to Gigi on me- definitely cooler than Provocative. But it really depends on how much you wear such colours.
A couple of other things that looked quite similar on my arm:
Geneva is just a little pinker than Nahema RA on my skin. Again, unless you love these sorts of shades, you probably don't need both. I swatched it next to Genna Rouge G (#28), but Genna is much redder and more opaque.
Galiane was indistinguishable from Gillian (#14) on me.
Geraldine was similar, but definitely cooler than Georgia (#62).
My skin is about a Mac NC15 and is pretty neutral, maybe leans a little cool.
