It's kinda similar. Angelika is more yellow based & more glittery whereas LR is definitely a true pink with a more raspberry pink base, and once its on it is much more of a softer pink.

I bought Hot Planet and Intenso.
I love Hot Planet, Intenso is probably going back though.

I swatched Moon River on my hand and tried it on my face what happend was exactly how you described, that is why although I liked it a lot I didn't get it.

Ops forgot to add I'm NC30.

When I get back home from college for Spring Break.. I KNOW I'm going to go to the mall and crack and probably get Hot Planet. Good thing the others REALLY do not interest me.

But I WILL not tempt myself by swatching the other ones.
That's just ASKING for it!

I swatched it on my hand and face and didn’t get it, I also don’t remember anything about it!! … I’m sorry I’m no help but I though this does tell something ….

Yeah, I'm only letting myself get two as well! I picked Love Rock as one.
And I'm getting Hot Planet for my 2nd one.

Now I need to go look at Love Rock, I just picked Intenso based on how it looked swatched on my hand. On my face though I don't like it.

Hot Planet isn't muddy at all, it's a very nice golden peach, sort of coppery color. It gives a great glow!

Tish we don't judge here.

I am glad that you told us that you got Love Rock. Now I want one too!

They look beautiful in the pictures and in person, but I think they're waaaay overpriced. There's only 3g vs mineralized skinfinishes that are 10G! and only a few more dollars. Does anyone else agree??
