Nars Gina is my favorite.
You're right. You have dark hair, so I bet orange looks pretty on you. So many things play into it -- hair color, skin undertones, skin color, etc. heck, even eye color...

I think cheek colors can be tricky on light skinned blondes.. but even some blondes look good with orange blush.. but not me! It is very easy to start looking like a stale cheeto.

That's so strange! Luminous Flush doesn't go orange on me at all! It just goes on me as a peachy pink. I wouldn't mind if it did go orange, though, because I enjoy orange blush. Nars Gina is my all time favorite! :p
Hahaha! Stale Cheeto! You're absolutely right... there are so many factors when it comes to these things. I always live hearing what works on some people and not others, and then trying to figure out why.

Sorry it didn't work for you! I just remember I was SO EXCITED for MAC Toying Around l/s and I put it on and I was like "Oh... well I guess I'll be gifting this

"

So I hear you on the oranges.

  [COLOR=0000FF] I'm Rouge too.  I got my first two orders in 1 & 2 days, respectively.  That was pre-chaos.  I have not yet gotten shipping notices for my subsequent post-chaos orders.  [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]   I did not order during the [/COLOR][COLOR=0000FF]height of the intra-chaotic period.  Those seem to be the orders incurring the greatest delays.[/COLOR]
Ditto. I placed an order on the 9th and 10th, no info yet.
OMG your makeup looks stunning! I need to buy that blush palette. Also, what lipstick are you wearing? I need that too.
:lmao: I was thinking the same thing! Lippie addicts... All of us!
Too Faced Melted Peony :) thanks!!
Ah! I tried that once, looked way diff on me. Also balled up on my lips on edges so I passed shame!
I have Melted Peony and it looks much better on you.
:agree: looked very mod/pastel on me.
Speaking of BLACK FRIDAY..  I wonder if we will get a sneak peek soon. ETA: I just googled around.. and found info on Black Friday for Sephora.  A website says that last year - they didn't release info on their black Friday sale until the week of Thanksgiving.  They do already have a section added for Black Friday on PInerest, but nothing has been added yet.. So I guess I will start stalking their PInterest. lol Oh wow- so I am not the only one with that struggle of having blushes look orange?  I will see a blush in the pan and think it will work..and then put it on..and it will look completely different and orangey..  I have a phobia about looking orange.  It is NOT a good look for someone light skinned..eekkk.   In regards to cool toned blushes - I really like illamasqua's Katie blush.. But Sephora stopped selling Illamasqua :( ..  I bought Becca's Gypsy during Sephora's sale..but it hasn't come in yet.  It is a cool toned pink..I will let you know if it works out on my skin.
I also was just thinking about Black Friday! Last year they had some great in store options. I got the regular sized philosophy purity face wash for $10! Now I am hooked on it and dread running out, don't want to pay full price lol. I ordered becca gypsy and flower child from the sale. I wore gypsy yesterday... I feel like it's almost TOO subtle. It is not as buildable as flower child. I also feel like for the price it shouldn't need to be built. I am nc20, I can swatch when I get home from work. It did give a nice little sheen, I just debating if I can get the same barely there situation from sometgig I already have. Flower child is very pretty. Leans more pink on me than coral. Will report back on the wear time and swatch if anyone wants.

I placed this order in October, got it 2.5 weeks after, which is a very prolonged time, but I went with that. However, I didn't like my product at all and returned it via USPS. What really shocks me is that I still don't have my refund. So, I contacted customer service and she said couldn't find my returning record. Sooooo disappointed! Never shop at Sephora ever again!
I moved your post into this thread, given it's related to Sephora, and this thread already existed. (A while back I moved another Sephora-related post into here as well.)

None of my orders (including Nov. 5th pre-sale) are yet in transit; I have Canada Post tracking numbers but all it says is that a label has been created.
