Thanks for the information!

WR is the perfect nude for NC15. I'm glad you will get it. When I swatched it a few weeks ago, I really hoped for a Tropical Mist dupe, but it isn't due to the undertone. The undertone is subtle, but strong enough to rule it out for myself. I don't compromise with nude. IMO, WR just looks wrong on pale NW, especially when it dries down. But more power to NC15 guys and gals. You deserve it.

I really need that Ocean City blush swatched! I'm thinking it may be too subtle for my NC50 skin due to the ombre...i may have to skip this collection as well

Ok ladies! So in my collection the closest dupe for mangrove is ladydanger practically identical. However mangrove makes LD look a tad bit more orange. Mangrove is hard to discribe I think it has a hint of neon red or dark coral in it witch makes it look more electric then LD and we all know how vibrant LD already Is so With that being said I love mangrove!!!! It's beautiful and not drying at all!! Is it worth the $22? idk... It really depends on your budget situation :/ I wouldn't go broke over it because LD is very close. But if your a freak like me and don't mind having the same color in 10 slightly different shades and love a good orange red then go for it!! Pinkfringe is very pretty but not really unique and like most light shade satins it kinda settled in my lip lines The closest dupe In my collection was naughty sauté it was a limited edition but I like pinkfringe more it's more pigmented and less glossy. Well that was my 2 cents hope it helps

I forgot to add that the packaging is very nice! It doesn't feel cheap at all the tube feels like metal not like plastic and is kinda heavy.

Oh my gosh! I'm so happy, I searched my lipstick collection and I think I found a good dupe for Mangrove! I think they still have it on the tarte website, it's the lipstick in shade "Timeless", from Aqualillies. I'm trying to go on a low buy, although with all these collections it's hard to!
Judging based on some swatches from online of Mangrove it is similar to it, I think. :/

Thanks for the swatches, Erin! I will skip Mangrove, since I already own Dangerous and Nars Heat Wave (both are very similar). I don't need a third lipstick in this shade.

I think you've got a very accurate perception of Mangrove. It's a color that's bright but also sort of flat and deep at the same time. It looks like layers of different shades all built up in this complex way, but just with one easy swipe.The closest dupe In my collection was naughty sauté it was a limited edition but I like pinkfringe more it's more pigmented and less glossy.

Lady Danger and Dangerous are both much less complex reds than Mangrove, although that'd probably be hard to see in a hand swatch. Try before you buy X 100 !!!

Yes I had to stare very hard to spot the slight difference. but I really love mangrove or anything with neon in it. Lol Did you pic up mangrove Liba?

Pink Fringe photographs so weird! In some swatches it looks like a yellow pink and in others it looks really cool-toned. I keep going back and forth on wanting it. I only like warm pinks on me, my natural lip color makes even the slightest blue pink look straight up purple on me.
