However, let's be real... I don't need any more lipsticks!
I don't understand this language that you speak??????? Please translate.

I don't understand this concept.

I'm the oddball that likes sheer lippies (within reason!) ;-) In the bullet Peach Satin is much darker and more orange than I expected, so I'll check tomorrow to see how it actually swatches!
I would wear them if they looked good but pale lipstick (not properly matched nudes) looks horrific with dark skin---IMHO

Although I'm usually more of a "GIVE ME PIGMENT OR GIVE ME DEATH" kind of girl, I like that colour. Unfortunately, I can't wear those sort of peachy shades, so I suspect both of the Spring lipsticks will be no-gos for me. Sad trombone.

......and I'm a GIVE ME PIGMENT OR I LOOK LIKE DEATH kinda girl. A skip for me too.

@starletta8 Ok here is Peach Satin. As you can see, no pigmentation problems here! It's a vibrant orangey peach. I own nothing like this so I'm quite pleased. It's such a happy shade!

Ooh, thanks!

Sort of regretting passing, but I bet if I shop my stash I can find something similar.

I totally understand. My lips look dead without some pigment too, and finding a nude that suits your skin tone can be such a challenge! I don't mind if a lippie is a bit sheer, but certainly it has to have some color to it and be buildable. Otherwise I might as well just stick to balm!

Waiting on the other half of today's haul to be delivered, I cannot stop staring at my new compact.

So. So. PRETTY.

I need Dore as a blush now, I've decided.
I'm glad you're enjoying it Starletta!!!

I think it's a Middle East exclusive not sure if it's available in Asia too
Maybe it will see its way here the way Chanel Réve d' Orient made its way to us via the Middle East.

It sounds like I don't need to worry about oxidation the way that the Dore Météorites tend to.

Wait. I just saw this and panicked about whether I got the right shade because there's no way the shade I just swatched is one of those! 540 peach satin for spring 2015. Right? I'm double-checking my box right now to verify LOL

edit: Yep, my box and lippie say 540 peach satin!

Oh it is totally that vibrant! I was expecting a subdued peachy pink. What a wonderful surprise! And when I saw that orangey goodness I immediately thought of you. I figured there was no way you wouldn't be tempted by this one!

Do you happen to have NARS Catherine by any chance?
I don't have Catherine unfortunately! But that would be an interesting color comparison. The finishes will be quite different and I suspect Peach Satin is more vibrant, but the colors seem like they would definitely be in the same ballpark!

Just doing a mani with Baby Rose... it's very similar to Dior Tra La La with (IMO) a superior formula. I may have to back this baby up.

Even taking into account differences in lighting and skin tone...I just don't see how the Peach Satin I have could ever look like that. It's far more orange. I keep wondering if maybe the one on the left of her swatch is Peach Fizz from the perm line instead of Peach Satin? I don't know. Buyer Beware, I guess! LOL
