ok here a 2 pics side by side ...

barbie's magic dust on left. pollen on right. taken with and without a flash.

I tried to swatch it ...bt I am pale so it would not show up in a pic. =( My opinon for what it is worth (not much honestly, better probly asking someone like temptila, who give great reviews!) I think the pollen shows up better than magic dust. Magic dust to me is more sheer. I like them both.

I saw magic dust in person today and thought it looked just like pollen. Or at least close enough to pollen that I didn't need to buy it.

I bought it today too, and don't see even the slightest hint of taupe in it. Maybe it's your monitor?

To me it's like a cross between Gold Dusk pigment, Nylon, & Pollen - closer to Pollen than anything though.

Thank you for posting those pictures!
