Not dark at all - it's almost exactly like Touché Huggable on me, maybe a tiny touch more nude and I'm NC15. I posted a picture of me wearing Touché in the Huggables thread.

Hey everybody. I did a little test with the CC creams today and put some FoF goodies on too, just to show them. Sorry again for my really old bad camera - the average cell phone camera is better than this junk nowadays. This is AitA on the cheeks, Lilly-White on the eyes (with some Hyacinth kohl) and Star Quality (my old tube from Reel Sexy) over Fleur d'Coral. For the skin, I used the yellow CC on the cheeks, brow bones and around the nose, the lavender under the eyes and higher on the cheeks and on the lips before the lipstick/gloss. Mineralize liquid foundation in NW20 on top, using a 191 for the CCs and the Masterclass large oval for the foundation and to blend everything together (that Masterclass brush has made applying foundation more fast and flawless than any other brush I've ever tried). 188 to apply the blush.
The only thing I'd do differently is use winged liner (colored or not) or at least some stronger shadow on the lids. I think the lipsticks in this collection need a bit of a statement eye to look their very best.
The lip colour looks great on you, too! I assume it's mostly Star Quality doing the heavy lifting in terms of colour.
I'm still on the fence, too. I tried PP on one cheek and Azalea on the other, and they didn't look that much different on me (I'm NC15) except PP was darker. So I suspect the difference between Orgasm and PP will be even less, which is why I went with Azalea as I don't have anything similar to that in my stash. I'm low buy, too, but PP does have me torn, I have to admit!

Just came back from MAC, I picked up Nude Bud and HH, and Flare of Fantasy (Creemsheen). I got my mother, Rose Lilly and Pagoda (Cremesheen); I fell in love with hers, may have to snag that too. I just love getting Limited Edition lippies from the MAC collections. I am NW43/45 and I think they all look gorgeous on me.

...You know, I'm having buyers remorse on my backups. After about two weeks of using these lippies I'm noticing dryness and the color impact isn't as great as I'd like... Maybe I should just stick to just Satin, Amplified, and Mattes?

I'm a NC45. Would Stereo Rose look good on me? I've been looking at swatches and like it.

Wow that's awesome! Very motivating. I recently realized I've been practicing bad habits lately. My eating habits are terrible. I only eat like once or twice a day and it's mostly junk. It's rarely a whole meal. I barely drink any water. Think that's why my skin is so dull and dry. I have a horrible immune system. I'm not in my 20's anymore I need to take better care of myself. I use my eye cream, moisturizer, and use my Clarisonic every other day. Wonder if I'm missing something in my skincare?

Your skin is soo smooth and flawless
I finally got my package today. Here is Snapdragon on. I like it but, I'm not in love with it. It took A LOT of swipes just to get it show on my lips. It's a pretty color though. But, too much work just to get it to show up. And it didn't last long on my lips. Like two hours and it was gone. I will pair it with a lip liner. But, it's not something I will reach for often.
Here is Phlox Garden. It's a very pretty shade. Although, I wish it had more purple in it. It has strong red undertones to it, which I'm kinda disappointed about. But, still a pretty color.
I have to say. I'm over this collection. None of this really wowed me, except Petal Power blush. Everything else was just kinda OH BLAH! Oh well. Like I said. I don't hate them and I plan to keep them. But, I would have been okay without them too.
