Just purchased GLADYS. I'm kinda torn between Gladys and Rose Grenat. But I love vibrant fuchsia over pinkish reds.

I am torn between the 2, I have 68 Gigi which is a pinkish red which I love...I do like the special packaging of Rose Grenat, and I have a lot of fuschias so I might go for the Rose Grenat if I get any.
I hope to see swatches on your blog!

Geneva is sheerer than I thought it would be for something described as blood orange.

I have both and clearly Rose Grenat is différent, vibrant too. If I could I would back up but the Rouges G are 38€ here so I won ´ t but it is really gorgeous, T. Recommands it I fully agree. If you can well splurge
worth it

I was going to wait until the end of the week to buy Rose Grenat from Saks but its already sold out
I guess if you want this one, you better act fast when its up at Nordstrom or Neiman. Yikes!

Here's T's review of the two new/ limited shades:

And BTiB's:

It looks redder than Madame Batifole to my eyes, more similar to Provocation. Then again, those two were reasonably similar to begin with.

While I'm still testing it (today is my second day giving it a go) I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised and very glad your post inspired me to give it another go. Once on and blended in, it doesn't appear too orange or red; I can still see my golden tones peaking through, just with a bit of added warmth. I like it thus far

Sharing the same coloring as you, Charisma & Shontay, I ordered the Joli Teint in Fonce along w/one of the
Terracotta bronzers & the bronzer brush w/the hope that Fonce will work for me. I'm glad you were specific
about your experiences because it really supported my choice.

I hope you love it. I'm still enjoying it. I'm laughing at myself still because I thought it turned me orange. I think that's the paranoia I get when trying a new foundation. Especially when it's a brand I don't frequently buy from. Can't wait to hear what you think of it. And I am still SO upset that I can't buy a terracotta bronzer!

I saw that you're allergic to one of the ingredients in the terracotta bronzers---that has to be so frustrating in one sense, yet liberating in that you know what to avoid.
My goodies are scheduled to arrive on Thursday. I'm so excited to try it, & definitely let you know how it goes.

I've never bought a beauty blender b/c I can't wrap my head around paying that much for a sponge. Plus, I prefer brushes, but instead I bought about 4 "beauty blenders" from Real Techniques for the same price and I love it! I actually haven't used a brush for my liquid foundations since I got my hands on these sponges a few months back. Eventually, I will try a BB, though. They come in some cute colors. :lol: Yeah. It's really annoying because there are some products I'm really interested in buying, but I read the ingredients on the box and have to put it right back. I think it's a deadly ingredient b/c it's always listed last (just kidding. kinda). It's a mixed blessing because on the plus side, I get to save some $$$. At least the brands I love most: MUFE, Chanel and Nars don't use that ingredient. I wish Mac would ditch it, too. It's actually a really harsh and unnecessary ingredient so I'm still confused as to why it's used so much in some brands.

Medgal and Shontay, It took me a year to buy a beauty blender. I've been using foundation brushes and duo fiber to apply bob creams and foundation. I took the dip in January and bought it. And it is unbelievable! It's very porous, soft and Blends foundation very well. Like second skin. Never feels cakey. Btw, Sephora got VIP Rouge 15% off RougeTicket is the code maybe u can use that.
