One of the Sephora Glitter Lipsticks. I've actually given it some thought and decided Sephora would have to do in the event that I can't get my hands on another one. I think #88 might be the shade to go with :

I know that for me atleast, Rocker looks a bit brown/burgundy/red in the tube, but goes on more red than anything else, and this color is closer to a true red, so it may have to be layered with something else like the Cream Lipstick in #51. HTH.

There are still a few differences between Shimmermoss and Steamy..Steamy is greener than Shimmermoss, which has more blue in it.

to add to this thread:

If you have mulch you don't need bronze.
If you have Amber Lights you don't need casino.
If you have Floral Fantasy you don't need Romping
If you have Rule you don't need Fab n Flashy.
If you have SHimmermoss you don't need Aquadisiac.
If you have Overgrown you don't need eyepopping
If you have Swimming you don't need Wondergrass
If you have Rye you don't need patina
If you have deep truth you don't need flashtrack or contrast
If you have Copper Sparkle you don't need Rushmetal


If you have Saturnal you don't need Sable Wrap

Chrome Yellow is very different from Going Bananas to me....CY is a very vivid yellow, while GB is paler and has more white/cream in it maybe much more similar to Bright Sunshine.

For these two, I disagree. I am NC45, and these colors look completely different on me. Shimmermoss was more shimmery and green than Aquadisiac. And swimming is darker and has a slight shimmer to it, while Wondergrass is this grassy, bright green color with no shimmer.

Actually, Ambering Rose is not similar to After Dusk.

lleisuretime= plum dressing
intoxicate=shadowy lady
trax= star voilet ( so much smoother and less gold glitter, but more of a duochrome )

You probably won't need the warm quad (unless you're nuts about having gold glitter instead of silver in your black), but from what I see, the cool quad is distinctly pretty blueish, so you may want it. However, I'd try it out first!

I disagree, trax and star violet don't look anything alike on my skin.

Not on me either [NW15], Trax is a kinda muted violet color, SV is a bright, red-ish purple.

I know some people will disagree with me, but I think if you have Black Tied, you don't need Cloudburst. I swatched them on my hand next to each other and there were no striking differences.
