this is exactly how I feel about both blogs. I sometimes go to Karen to see swatches because shes closer to my skin tone than temptalia is, but I find temptalia's swatches to be more color accurate.

About My Paradise... I really oped it was more orange
Anyway I really love this color because it's not pink at all..it's a coral! Full stop. You can see it better on my cheek that is not a scary orange at all (I want scary oraaaange)
PS I've used Surf Baby products to create this! I think it's better to see make up in action!!

I chit chatted with my MA a little about Surf Baby today while I was in the store. He tells me My Paradise applies sheerly, so I guess there's no need to be afraid of it. The Blushettes are not going to be manufactured after all, so don't expect them. He was sad about it - thought they were pretty cool. The pigment stacks are going to be coming in in very limited quantities, so yeah sorry ladies, you'll have to hustle to get them most likely.
Just a couple more weeks!

At first I wasn't really looking at this collection, but now I really want some of the eye shadows and the blush! Does anyone know if there are dupes in the permanent line for anything, or is it all limited edition products?

Sorry, but they are different :haha:. Both of those are good duos. I own them both. Actually, looking at all four shades, they are completely different from one another. Saffron is my personal fave even though I have yet to use it 
hboy:. Like I said, Saffron is a deep, matte, kinda rusty orange. Like a Rule/Orange shadow baby. Paparazz-She is a shimmery orange kinda like a cousin of Amberlights. The orange from Balthazar is a soft, muted, slightly shimmery orange, but more on the gold side. Kinda like an orange Goldmine. The orange from Mediteranee is the boldest, more peachy orange with shimmer. All are worth having, I think. Left to Right: Saffron, Paparazz-She, Balthazar, Mediteranee

[quote name="cutemiauw" url="/forum/thread/172561/mac-surf-baby-discussion/2490#post_2116070"] Here's my comparison swatch between Saffron, Paparazz-she, and Nars Taj mahal Blush
I thought I didn't need Paparazz-she because I had Saffron... boy I was wrong
[/quote] Yup. They are very different. I kinda regret buying Paparaz-she, but that's only because I don't really care for that kind of shade on me. I was just on a Peacocky high and bought damn near every piece of that collection.
