Here is a picture comparing the two. From left to right: Gladiola and Hollywood Nights. Gladiola seems be a little more purple that Hollywood Nights. Swatches done on NW15 skin.

Should I tell you anything? I will take them all three

Then I can ask them myself which shade they think they are

 

[Susanne]

Coachkitten, thanks for these swatches! I love Hollywood Nights in summer and so will I love Gladiola!

 

[PerformingMAC]

The Coral polyp l/s is probably all I will get from this collection. Maybe a lipglass...depends on if I get a Christmas Bonus this year or not!

 

[mizuki~]

Wisteria e/s is so pretty......

not feelin' the rest of the trio though

 

[jeffreygirl]

OK, this might eat into my HK budget! I hope I get some gift cards and/or cash this Christmas!

Yes,it helps a lot Erine,thanks!

I am going to get Varicose Vein,I really want a lavender nl.

Rbella should get coral polyp because polyps are like hemorrhoids and we all know she wants to pay homage to those

That's the best idea ever.
I think I will do the same.

The lipglosses are confusing. I will wait to see them IRL and choose from there.

 

[ksanayy]

all the lipglosses looks lovely i was looking at the display at my local macys store and the eyeglasses thing to it seems like it could comeoff easy.

That's good because i think the glasses are hifeous anyway.

 

[CantAffordMAC]

I will probably just get one lipglass. And I dont know which one yet lol.

1. Splendid

1. Hot Frost

1. Possum Nose Pink

 

[rbella]

I like the way you think, Susanne!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Now I'm tempted to spend about 100 dollars on this collection and save the rest of my money for the HK collection and the Creme Team collection as well.

Have you tried Girl About Town? It's quite similar to HN.

 

[SakurasamaLover]

Seriously for people who are trying to save: don't buy Gladiola.. unless you really want the package, it's EXACTLY like Show Orchid, witch is a PRO permanent color.
