Under the very yellow-y store lights, they looked almost identical. She said that once I run out of Dressmaker x2, I can get a "backup" by getting Shy Girl, because it's essentially the same color but in a different formula. Can anyone confirm this, or even swatch it under better, natural light?

They looked almost identical on my NW15 skin. I could tell them apart because Shy Girl had more pigmentation.

It really is, although on me it is more pinkish-peachy than coral.

I love collections like this, neutral with a twist.

Hope you get the job, Karin. Sometimes they just ask for references for completeness, so that might not mean anything. Keeping my fingers crossed

Instant Chic is love. Try other Sheertone blushes, too.

fold and tuck looks good with Chesnut lip pencil. I thought it wouldn't work for me until i tried it. Just a suggestion for darker WOC.

Darn I meant to try Chesnut with Made to Order. To see how that worked. Next time!

Made to Order is a great dupe for Surprise Me. I have both and i find Made to Order more peachy/coral while Surprise Me is more pinky/coral if that makes sense. Very similar but still unique on its own. But to be honest, they are both so pretty so i'm glad i have both!

I hope they don't disappoint me though, I've never really bought any products without trying them on first. After my disastrous experience with Ripe Peach, I really do hope Instant Chic won't disappoint! Btw, is Made With Love l/s (Color Craft collection) similar to Made To Order? I remember being disappointed with Made With Love because I found it insufficiently unique to warrant keeping.


I'm a bit enamored with this collection!

I never got Made With Love (seriously regret it) so I can't compare the 2, sorry hun! I hope you love whatever you decide to pick up, and keep feeling better day by day!

It's thanks to this thread that I stopped being a lurker, and also bit the bullet and went out and got Coral Crepe. Thanks for influencing me! It's GORGEOUS on my NC44 skin, though I have to pit a bit more on so it doesn't sink into my skin. I'm also glad I picked it up since I got one of the last ones left!

I can't wait to see it paired with Sand & Sun and Firecracker from To The Beach later this month.

On another note, LOVING the Pret-A-Papier l/g. It paired with Cushy Cremestick Liner = LURV. It comes off a beautiful bronzy-gold that really warms up the skin. I may have to get a backup, unless someone knows of a good dupe from the permanent line?

^ That kitty is to funny! lol.

Ok so I finally got the last of 2 orders today. I don't know why it took so long, but I'm glad it's finally here!

Today I received my instant chic blush and my chromagraphic pencil (I also got some #35 lashes). The pencil I swatched real fast to try it out. I think it's going to be best for me as a spot concealer. Maybe not so much in the water line, it seems to soft, like it would smudge.

So now I just need to try out this blush. I hope i like it. I also still need to try out my coral crepe p/p. I swatched it and it's beautiful. Just need to use it now. lol.
