I am glad you like them all :)
I have a feeling I will regret not having picked up DG in the summertime. I just can't wear or buy these colours right now
sigh.gif

Even if I could I've spent too much money on MAC lippies lately to justify buying some more atm - can't stop

Right? I have this strong urge to pick up LL as well !

Yep, I guess I have a problem. I will have to buy some things from RHPS, Heirloom Mix, Lightness of being and so on as well.
Too many beautiful things...

Dunno about LL. Blackened deep plums look kinda weird on me though!

Looks really nice, it's just not my kind of shade. I hope she reviews the other two as well.
I saw them in store and they are gorgeous, specially the salmon one.

Didn't get any at the moment as a) they are suposed to be perm and b) am trying to avoid buying more blushes!!

I've been super busy - haven't had time for my usual manuscripts about collections, but I've got to say:

SiS = if you can wear these colors easily, SiS is one of the absolute best, since it's deeper than RiRi Nude or EE. I saw it on a gal who was more like NC35 with brown hair and eyes and it wasn't so great on her, though. You have to be willing to wear some serious black eye makeup and/or strong brows to balance this color out. On a side note, this color eventually pulled a teeny bit reddish on me, since my lips are red. I think it's going to look amazing over a brick lip pencil or even over Nightmoth!!! Just for an added change of pace with it

Pander Me = Unexpected love. I thought it'd run too brown for my taste, but it settled into being a warmed up, deeper Runway Hit on me, with plenty of orange in it. Like a terra cotta orange creamcicle mix. If it looks good on me, it's going to work for most people, although fair NWs might get more orange out of it, possibly.

There's something about the formula of this batch that somehow lets your natural lip color or maybe just your lip pH balance effect the color a bit - it will change in around 5 minutes after application as it sets. Everything would pull quite different on me than on the other gals trying them on. I like this - it customizes the colors and makes them very wearable.

Nay! Looks like she will since I think she has a diff blush on her other cheek (looks like coral one)

You're right! It looks nice from what I can see. I might get that one. I'm thinking the salmon one could be too warm / dark for me.

DG looks soooo close to All Fired Up that I don't think it'll be an issue. It also looks slightly like Glam if you have that one.

Quick swatches of "Pander Me," "Fashion Revival," and "Styled in Sepia" (NC15-20):



Originally, LVER was to be my favorite from this collection. Then my mom picked it and I found out it was identical to something [pricier] that I already owned - hence why I'm not purchasing my own tube (nor did I bother swatching it up there). But "Styled in Sepia" ended up looking exactly how I wanted it to look on me, and as such is now my favorite from the collection. A very pretty, gray-toned brown. That's what I wanted the most: for the gray to show through. And, since I never buy straight-up browns, I can say that this has its own unique spot in my makeup drawer.

What's so interesting to me is that I was only attracted to the gray in SiS because I own "Black Sesame" from the NYX Macaron lipsticks, and I actually really, really like how it looks on, LOL. Granted it's not at all 'wearable' - but that's why I now have SiS!

It isnt close to AFU! AFU is a lot pink compared to DG! And compared to Glam it is lighter & Brighter! hth!
