Thought I'd add swatches of the highlighters.

Nude Pink is on the left, Blush Pink on the right.

I avoided the overspray part while swatching. Surprisingly Nude Pink is completely matte, while Blush Pink definitely has a silver pearl to it.
These two make gorgeous blushes on fair skin! Blush Pink looks really pale but it does show on my NC15 skin. They are so natural looking, which is what I love about them. They are powdery, but pigmented and not dry at all.

Thanks for the great pics! I got Blush Pink & I wish I could have gotten Nude Pink.

Even tho HC is not sold out, for those wondering dupes...

I have Spellbound, didn't even think of it in my stash as being a dupe! Just swatched, Spellbound is shinier which makes it look lighter in certain angles but definitely pretty much the same. HC is more opaque right off the bat and about 1/2 later still more matte and richer looking. I knew I had a dupe, just completely forgot about CG, lol. For some reason I thought all of them were frost. Jeez, lemme go through them now. I have 9. HC was definitely an impulse buy on my part while at the store on Thursday, lol.

The swatches have me dying. Lickable was one of my first MAC lipsticks. I ended up giving it to my cousin and that got her started buying lipstick afterwards. No wonder I love HC so much. I definitely feel like Lickable is brighter on me though.

The nude one looks nice, if there was a shimmer it could probably work on darker skin as a highlight.

Thank you for these! I wish I would have seen quality swatches (like yours, *not* Temptalias lol) before the Nude one sold out. Sigh! I would have definitely picked it up.

Decided to bu HC. I said I was going to and finally decided to do it. Wore it to church today and I'm really in love with it. It looks amazing on me. Sort of a fuchsia- berry but it leans more berry on me. .

HC is pure LOVE! I've been wearing it non-stop since it arrived and it is such a beautiful, beautiful lipstick.

FINALLY got my HC tonight. Packages get stolen from my apartment lobby so I ship everything to my grandma's. I love it! I put it on in dim lighting so it didn't stand out too much but then I caught a glimpse In the bathroom mirror and did a double take like, whoa, hey girl! Haha, definitely a "look at me" shade.

The SA at my store told me that it works well for darker skin to set highlighted areas on the face. She likes it on her cheekbones and cupid's bow for a more natural look, as it's not shimmery.

Interesting...a $32 setting powder is a bit much for me though, lol.

I love all the PT lipsticks! Cardinal isn't the "dark red" that MAC described (at least not on my NC30-35 skin tone), but it's a lovely red. HC and NFP are both must-haves IMHO. Cardinal, Hollywood Cerise, and No Faux Pas:

I love both Fluidlines too. I think BP is my #1 favorite FL ever! I bought another one from MIB. RW is a beautiful color too. I thought about getting a backup, but I already bought a lot of FL between PT and MIB.
