Temptalia has a swatch gallery, which can be sorted by colour, brand etc. Here's her corals gallery, which has Crosswires, Ultra Darling and HibiscusI don't have Crosswires, but I have Ultra Darling sheen supreme l/s, which is similar to Crosswires. So it might be close to Hibiscus too!

Wooh, I've missed a lot of this thread! I did end up getting Hibiscus and the Surf the Ocean pigment stack - the colours are sooo gorgeous, but I've only swatched them yet! I should do a look with them today.....
And off topic, but I have exciting news for you....
Jerome and I are engaged!!!

On second thoughts, while Ultra Darling and Crosswires are indeed close to each other, I don't think they come anywhere near Hibiscus. They are more coral/pink whereas Hibiscus is more coral/red.

hmm i find crosswires to be lighter than either ultra darling and hibiscus.. i have both ultra darling and hibiscus and they look very different on.. hibiscus has more orange than ultra darling which is a truer pink..

ARGH, the gold color in my Surf the Ocean stack completely failed me today. I put it all over my lids, and after a couple of hours it was almost all gone. I used the same base I used for the other colors, but something happened. It might be because I layered too much on. I'll try again tomorrow, this time just going with one coat.

I did an all gold eye from lid to brow (upper and lower water lines lined with Dirty GPS) yesterday and it held up fine for the whole evening (about 5 or 6 hours). Applied it with a finger over lids lightly powdered with Careblend powder, then blended it in with a 217 and applied a little extra with the 217 to even it all out. Stayed bright, pigmented and shiny without fallout until I was ready to take it off.
However, I did rub one eye out of sleepiness right before I was ready to wash my face and that was enough to smear it all over, so I guess no eye touching allowed with this stuff

Congrat on the engagement, Jenn.
Work that lipstick out. My new obsession with Hibiscus is Sock Hop l/g because it is a cream and not frosty like SPotion and the midwest is in a monster heat wave right know and all I can think about is lipstick. Anything else on the face just seems to much in 100degree weather except for Feline and SFF powder. I can't work up the energy for anything else but I do stare at my Sun blonde and Surf USA dying to wear them.

These are so much easier to work with than last year's Crushed Metals it's not even funny. The only thing that even complicates them is the base the pigment is suspended in mostly reads sheer. This is really easy to deal with by putting powder shadow underneath - plus then you get a really nice, pseudo-duochrome effect.
Honestly, I'm glad I don't need to wet my brushes to apply these - it's so much lower maintenance for my brushes. I am wearing these almost every day now - I'm starting to love them more than the MegaMetal shadows just a tiny smidge even
