^^Don't even bring up Show Orchid. I love that lipstick so much. It makes your teeth look whiter and once you put it on, you don't want any gloss or anything to mute its brightness.

Show Orchid, Impassioned, Ruby Woo and Violetta

Lipgasms.

^^ LOL I was thinking about Impassioned and Ruby Woo also. I already have Violetta and I LOVE it. My other bright lippie faves are Up The Amp, Pink Poodle and Magnetique.

Ok, all the bright liptalk is totally in my wheel house.

But another one you will love is .99. It is Wet and Wild 525D. It is a bright pink/purple. I think it is combination of Up the Amp and Gladiola.

If you get it, pair it Currant/Vino or Magenta. It's pink powered goodness.

I went to today orignally for the Love that Look Collection (im late i know)
and ended up looking at this in the meantime

I tried on Your Pick l/s with Runway Fave l/g and was acutally able to make it work.

I had to play with it with a few different liners to "warm" it up. It was definitly cool toned and a little scary when I first put it on. First I used BBQ and was not satisfied. Then I used Cork liner on top of the lipstick and blended it until I was happy with the "depth"

I found that with a made-up face the lipstick works for me. It's NOT a lipstick that I can just put on and go. NO. It looks too washed out and ghostly.

But with a warm lipliner and some blush to brighten up my face it all came together. I like it a lot. Its on my list now. The lipglass too

I'm NC44 for reference

I actually have Girl About Town already. Are you talking about a dupe for Show Orchid? I think SO is actually brighter than GAT. I have to say I'm not as crazy about GAT as I thought I would be. I LOVE Lickable though. I was obsessed with that lippie to the point where my friend had to take me to my stash and make me put on another color.

Thanks for the tip. I usually don't wear liner. I don't really have feathering problems and sometimes when I eat I like to remove my lip color and it's annoying for me to reapply a liner. I'm lazy like that. LOL

I actually hated Gladiola. It got into my lip lines and turned some crazy funky color a few minutes after I applied it. It's crazy how some brights work for me while others don't.

After looking at the swatch thread I KNOW Faultlessly is not for me. I am too light for it. I am a medium dark complexion with yellow undertones. It works better for the girl who did the lips swatch who was an NW50. Sometimes it sucks to be lighter.

I don't like GAT, all that much either. I want Lickable, Pomposity, too. I am kinda obsessed with hot/bright azz pinks or purples.

GAT vs. Full of Fuschia, are they dupes They look similar

Hey Tish, how do you feel about Saint Germain for our complexion? I'm kind of curious even though swatches look kinda funky. Do you have it or have you tried it on?

I saw the collection preview yesterday.. the coral lipstick caught my eyes instantly, but after I swatch it, it is kinda similar with the "made with love" from the previous collection. or it also similar with the "costa chic" if i am not mistaken remembering the name. the other two lipstick, the neutral one and the lil bit pinkish one, pretty similar with the lipsticks from the black style collection that will come out soon!! so please please please compare them first before you buy those lipsticks.. a lot of them are similar from previous or upcoming collection.

the lipglass however, is pretty unique!!! definitely you guys have to check them out.

the quad, the first 2 color on top are pretty unique. the bottom two are pretty similar with current permanent collection. can't remember which one but thats my opinion.

I am sorry if this has been discussed earlier but I just get confused after several pages

but hopefully it helps
