I have NO ISSUES whatsoever when it comes to blind purchasing purple lipsticks. But when it comes to nudes, orange and reds, I have wait until I see a WOC post a pic up or something to say we can work it

I am the same way! I feel like we can always make purple work, but nudes scare me lol

I've always avoided nudes. It was only when MAC UK had a glitch on their website, I went and ordered Oxblood to see if they will send it, when my intention was to completely skip the collection. Got OB, tried it and loved it. That is ONE nude we can work

I'm with you Marsha! I'm also NC50 and I'm hesitant to purchase without swatches

Marsha Pomells said:
It is pinker than Oxblood. But I want to see is some sort of swatch on NC50. That is all. I have blind purchased lipsticks and luckily I am able to get them to work

So I stopped at airport MAC to see the Toledo collection that they just got and to my surprise they had Julia Petit up!!! The SA said they launched it either Wednesday or Thursday--basically while we were all distracted by the Bao Bao Wan drama launch! Boca, Açai, and Linda blush were sold out already, but she allowed me to play with the testers. Swatches on NW45 skin:

Boca w/ Chestnut pencil

Top to bottom: Açai Boca Purpurine

Petit Red Wet Road liner Linda blush

A better pic of Boca...It looks like Maybelline Nude Embrace to me...

Better pic of the lip products in daylight...you can see purpurine better...oxblood in the lower right corner for comparison

As if I needed any convincing, those pics have signed the deal for me

[@]MissElle12[/@]... I have a crap memory. Yep... We can work it. So much for just buying one lipstick

@MissElle12 I missed this too! Wow, yeah I want it now

Hmmm so Im a little confused as Im reading different things online, is the blush Sunbasque from the permanent line in LE packaging? Or is it something entirely different?... Anyone know? Thanks

No worries! Lol it probably was the excitement that the collection is available somewhere! I decided to skip Boca because I'm definetly sure I have a dupe. Oxblood is peachier, which I know was mentioned before, but sure is noticeable on the lips. I only picked up Petit Red today (absolutely gorgeous by the way)....hopefully I can snag Açai too!

From what I understand, Sunbasque was the working name, they tweaked the formula of it to create Linda, a similar but entirely new product

i was thinking the same thing about Linda I posted in here it remind of bggg blush I can easily skip Thanks for posting

YW! You're good! I dug out my bggg blush last weekweek, maybe I thought that subliminally, lol. Love it.

Not yet! I am definitely getting Linda and Boca, but am not sure about the other lipsticks since like you, I have similar lippies in my stash. Every time I see a new pic though, I get overly excited and want them all! It's hilarious really, but it will take serious willpower to hold back when this releases and keep to my list.

That's what happened to me for BBW. I said I was only going to get the blue and green nail polish and ended up with darn near everything. Had LJ not been grabbed from my cart while I was pondering my impending poverty lol, I would have had everything except the VPF palette. At least with this JP collection, these are shades that you can definitely get a lot of use out of on a daily basis.

@MissElle12 thanks for great swatches, so helpful! Yo T, I seriously doubt Rebel, FR and Acai are "dupes" in natural light. Only when you're interrogating them under the bright lights do they cave and cry dupe lol

You're welcome! They are all in the same family with subtle differences for each, I think it's worth having all three!

T8 and T4. Both are behind the security checkpoint so it's only available to travelling passengers and cleared personnel. I work at JFK

That was going to be my next guess. Cool!

Anyone know if this collection is eligible for pro discount? I know typically collabs don't qualify but I thought id ask just incase
