Jaunty and Satin Taupe does make a pretty combo! I shall use that combo again in case I'm in a hurry.

I bought Crew today. Really surprised at how nice it looked on me.

I am sure that it looks gorgeous on you Richelle!

Crew is so pretty....I love it and use it a lot at the moment.

should I get Red Racer if I haven't even worn Runway Red yet???

I bought 2 Runaway Reds & when I tried it on I didn't like it at all. I hated the way Red Racer looked on me, but I didn't compare Runaway Red to Red Racer so I don't know what the difference in color is. I am hoping that the Ruffian Red will be the RR I've been hoping for! Third times a charm, right???

I bought Crew today. Really surprised at how nice it looked on me.

I know I said I wasn't even going to swatch Crew but I was less than thrilled with the lippies (but loved the LGs & I'm not usually a gloss girl). I was at Nordstroms a couple weeks ago & when I swatched it I fell in love. I absolutely love Crew! I also am having an affair with Launch Away & Fleet Fast! OMG those blushes made me a believer! Before I came on here I had 2 blushes & 1 HL & was an addict to all eyeliners & bold lipsticks. Now I can't get enough HLs & blushes! I was surprised by the things I didn't initially want in this collx...Emerald Sea EL, Blessedly Rich LG & Cut Loose LG. I've yet to play with the piggies and SD bronzer.

I'm wearing Throw me a line! with RR for the first time today. I really like it, makes the red lippie easy to wear.

I'm also having a Marilyn twist: Phiff! and The Perfect Cheek. I really like Phiff! too. It's a good one with bright lippies if you cannot wear mattes/matte-ish ones.

Unfortunately I have some kind of an eye infection and cannot put anything to my eyes for a while

. That's why I'm sporting the lips!

I'm going to have to try this because Jaunty isn't doing much for me.

I am so with you on this Spanky!!!

These 3 are absolutely adorable

orange is fine, but I like brighter colors. I find it somewhat dull. I know it sounds crazy but I'm neon.

Do you find it too orange on you?

do you wear red lips often? cos in my case I almost always wear bright pink so... hoarding oranges for instance doesnt make sense, I only have 2 real oranges. With reds I kind of collect them. I love them. But I do wear them less... I guess you have to see if this is something you wont let dry in your drawer...

shore leave and orange tempura are very pretty together. I forgot who mentioned it but I finally tried it today. Its a very pretty /understated/romantic look.....all things i love..THANKS

 

[PeachTwist]

Glad you liked it! I love it for when I'm in a hurry.

Hopefully it'll help you enjoy it.

Yep! It's pretty with Dark Edge on the outer V and Femme Fi as highlight!

I agree! Crew & Fleet Fast are my summer go-to face products at the moment! I'm especially loving Crew

I love how the different highlight colors go with my different shades of blushes ^_^

 

[smooch3s]

I wore Crew as a blush layered with ED Superb and I really liked how it came out.

Anyone know how Crew compares to In The Abstract, the highlighter from The Art of Powder?

I have both of those... Crew is waaaaay better. I don't even use the Art of Powder one because its got so much of that yellow gold that it looks like crap on me.

I think In The Abstract is already pretty powdery, from what I recall offhand.

Thanks. "Crew" was the only thing i sorta wanted from "Hey, Sailor". I have "In The Abstract" and it looks OK on me, but, yeah, it's pretty powdery. So i'm thinkin' i may give in and get "Crew"...

I wore SLV to a pool party at my husband's aunt's house and got several positive compliments on it. They told me that it made my skin look really good. I was only wearing it and mascara since I planned on getting in the pool and could reapply those easily. I am so happy that I was able to acquire it. I bought Crew recently too as my local Nordstrom's still had it in stock but am afraid to mess it up lol. I will just have to do it one day so I can enjoy it.

For those who have both, can someone compare Sun Dipped to Lush Light Bronze? I have Sun Dipped and love it. I have an opportunity to pick up LLB and wonder if I should.
