Flowering Quad swatches

[burkle]

Played with the quad at Isetan department store today and was quite impressed. All the shades are quite pigmented, even the lustres were not difficult to work with. Blossomcherry is a bright cotton candy pink, while Early Lawn is a shimmery light spring green, kind of like Milani Limbo Lime but with more intense shimmer. The closest shade to Honesty that I can think of is Mulch but Honesty is a bit lighter. Sunseed is a pigmented white that flashes pink.

er..isn't honesty permanent? or did they discontinue it when i wasn't looking? or re-formulate it? because the US version of honesty is one of my favorite shadows, even though its a lustre and i hate lustres. lol. the rest of them look really pretty, i just don't know if its worth my life trying to get a CP of it..

Honesty is permanent, and looks like the same shade. I picked up a Flowering Quad, mostly becuase I collect them. Very nice, established MUA'er was offering CP's from Singapore. This Quad looks beautiful.

Blossom Cherry is calling my name.

I'm glad I'm getting this quad now. I debated for a while because it looked washed out and muted and didn't really call out to me. It would be the first quad I didn't buy since I started collecting. I decided I'd get it in the end because I could always sell it if I don't like it. Looks like I might like it after all though

Blossom Cherry is beautiful! I'm still debating on getting this quad.

Honesty is a permanent and the other one looks kinda like Overgrown to me....meh something i could definitely live without.

 

[lokailyve]

wow, nice swatches! but i'm glad i didn't go through with a CP because these colors are not that special, IMO. i def. could easily find other duplicates of them.

Ooh pretty! I can't wait for it to come out in Singapore

 

[mspixieears]

Really pretty! Definitely suited for spring, or for autumn before it gets really cold. Reminds me of sherbet bonbons, yum!

I think the pink is really pretty!

Blossomcherry is quite bright and cheerful. Also more pigmented than it looks in the picture. I had to take the subway home with the swatches on the back of my hand as my digicam was at home. So by the time I got back, the colours had faded somewhat.
