Thanks ladies!! Justifies my purchaseI don't have photos, and I don't own SR (yet hahaha), but I can try some snaps tomorrow maybe with FNF and Stunner. Those two aren't very close, though. Oblivion would be an interesting comparison with Stunner, although it's a different finish.
With photos, either I bust them out quickly and not give a hoot that the color isn't accurate or I fiddle and fiddle with them to make sure the color is close, and it still isn't - so I don't often post pix. Whatever you're doing, you have good lighting!
I can anti-enable. Runner looked sort of murky on me…the color wasn't very vibrant. It was an easy pass when I tried it on. I much prefer Living Legend - that one is more jewel-toned and also with more purple/plum undertones and less plain old black making it deep. On the other hand, I bet Runner would look brighter on you than it did on me….decisions decisions hehe.
Gunner is SO purple, very blue purple. Instigator is more of a dark wine color. Instigator is also quite a bit darker. They're totally different animals.

Thank you for the swatches jedichick26!!! I am loving how blue based Gunner is.
Comparison swatches; Top without flash, bottom with.
What shade does it remind you of? Mine will be here tomorrow. I am so glad you loved it. Between Stunner and Runner which one do you like best.Just gt my RunnerIt's SOOOO sexy beautiful on! It was smooth too, & did not go on patchy at all. The shade has a beautiful burgundy depth to it & I think it's different enough from others in that range.
You are almost there. Be patient.
So pretty on you Jill!MAC Nasty Gal "Runner"
Runner! Its just sexy looking LOL! Umm, I don't know...its a complicated purple/aubergine/burgundy shade.

Runner is Gorgeous!!! So glad I caved!
Don't feel bad. I said the same thing and I got Runner and Stunner.
Don't feel bad. I said the same thing and I got Runner and Stunner.. We can thank Candy and Elegant One for that.
I'm not sure who started that Kinky was a dupe for Stunner, but they either don't know color or they have bad lighting. Honestly, I NEVER believe the whole dupe thing. I can tell the color difference & the shades always look different on me than what someone says is a dupe. You can see below that they are nothing alikehboy: Stunner is a fuchsia based red. Its beautiful on! Kinky - left, Stunner - right
Yeah, thats why you cant listen to everybody. You'll have to see for yourself/get swatches! Sidenote: Gunner is everything I wanted it to be! Just got it in today and it looks great!!
