I thought I would absolutely hate Saint Germain. I resisted it for years. When I finally tried it, I was very surprised that it actually worked on me.
I've been wanting to try that for a while. Some light baby pinks work on me oddly enough but I haven't tried it on my lips yet. I may get the gloss as a compromise though.

I think I'm going to try to put myself on a lipstick low/no-buy until this collection comes out. Then I won't feel bad about buying all the GV pretties. Lord... give me strength.

I can't do Saint Germain at all. So so wrong. BUT, I ROCK Double Spin, which is way lighter. It's just a softer color, and without the heavy white pastel issues. I can also wear some LE colors that are similar to St. Germain, like A Novel Romance, which looks great. So many factors influence these colors, but Saint Germain give all of them a bad rap, hehe.

But then Trend-rude will have access too. :p
It's the reason why I stay away from pink! I have a few brighter ones, which lean more to fuchsia but I never buy baby pinks. I really wanted YSL Lingerie Pink but I haven't bought it because of SG.
I decided to try it again earlier today and I didn't like it. Then I lined my lips with Chic Trick and filled in the outer 1/4s. I put the Miley lipglass on top and I got a nice barbie pink. So I finally found a way to wear it

Now this makes me want to to go home tonight and try on Saint Germain. I haven't worn it out yet. I B2M'd for it a couple of weeks ago. Maybe it was garish on me and I didn't realize it when I tried it on. If I get a chance, I'll post a picture tonight.

I like how it looks on her and I think you're the same type:

I'd say try Be Fabulous Mineralize Rich Lipstick - it's that perfect soft, pale pink, but not harsh at all, and the texture fuses perfectly with the lips, so it's extra soft and nice. It still has a little brightness in there, but it's very manageable.

If you liked it at first, I'd say go with your gut reaction!!!!

The girls on the previous page were talking about being born in July and thus being born under the sign of Cancer, like Nasquiat. Cancer's are ruled by the Moon. Under Nasquiat's avatar her location says: Moon.

The packaging is so pretty. I think I'm going to splurge on this collection. It's everything I look for in a collection! I hope it's not an insane release
