Is it just me or no one is talking about the quads at all? Mostly lipsticks.

I just got my YTL today - I am in love :love:  for some reason MACs Craving came to mind. I didn't swatch them next to each other. I think YTL is a bit more rosy and pink, but it's close. 
Yes, I think @MandyVanHook compared YTL to Craving in her YouTube video. I think she said Craving was just a little darker. I have swatched Craving a million times and always meant to get it, so I went ahead and jumped on YTL after her review. It arrived today and it's everything I hoped it would be. :)

That's exactly my experience. Since I'm a titch darker and have a little natural redness in my cheeks (a bit, not ruddy), it does even less than that on me. All I get is a faint, almost ashy sheen.

I tried a bunch of brushes: MAC 116, 129 and Hakuhodo 110 before giving up. I finally reached for the Haku so that I could see if the bristles were picking up any colour (they were).
Well I guess I am not the only one... sorry to hear it's not working for you either

I was really hoping it will pull more peach than pink, I love anything peach no matter how light it is...

Tried on Talk Sexy earlier but didn't have time for a lip swatch, but now that it's nearly 1am here I went ahead and tried on Yield to Love It is LIFE. I'm going to wear this color so much :eyelove: For seeming like a semi basic color it actually feels unique to me, so plummy and pink at the same time.
It looks lovely on you

I love the ANR quad. I actually backed it up. This collection is a super hit for me. Everything goes together, the textures are great, it's sexy... I'm buying the whole collection and I'm not even sorry. And the nail polishes! No one has mentioned them but they are amazing!!!

Myself is pretty freakin' awesome. I don't see any glitter or shimmer, it just has a beautiful sheen. A gorgeous nude shade that leans beige and has a mauve undertone. It is so buildable, nothing like a tinted lip balm. It is pretty opaque actually. Seems like major bloggers put on one swipe and decided to call it sheer, just because it's a Lustre finish. :rolleyes: Myself Woodrose YSL Rouge Pur Couture in 10/Beige Tribute
Myself is pretty freakin' great. I wore it this morning to a job interview.

I would always be super excited for the big fall collection especially for the eye stuff.... this year I skipped all of them.

Can someone do swatch comparisons between Good Kisser and Impassioned? Or Good Kisser and Girl About Town?  I already saw Temptalia's comparisons but her lighting varies between her old and new photos!

Thanks guys! Here it is a little closer on me... it is so much more of a pink/rose than I first thought it would be. The site makes it look so brown. So happy!
