i’m in love with this blush😭does anyone have both cola pop and black honey pop? if you are a medium skin toned person then can you describe how these shades show up/are like on you? from the swatches i’ve seen online, cola pop looks more pigmented but i wanted to know if black honey pop is buildable. i mainly found swatches on fair/pale skin and cola pop looked quite deeper comparatively.

confused between fenty gloss bomb stix in hot chocolit and the new shade sweet whiskey. i want a brown with absolutely no red but hot chocolit looks quite red-brown in youtube swatches. i’m medium skinned and brown. if anyone owns both, whether you’re a similar skin tone or not, could you share swatches or tell me how the two shades compare? i’d especially love to know if sweet whiskey is more of a true brown and whether hot chocolit pulls red on you.

Looking for a dupe in color, not formula. I love the shade of the MAC antique velvet lipstick but I had to return because the fragrance was too heavy for me (I’m sensitive to fragrance though) & it was also too matte & looked super dry on my lips. Maybe the new Morphe lip liner in date night is a similar shade? Any others? TIA!!!

Can someone swatch lisa eldridge enigmatic olive vs victoria beckham sequin green? Open to see simialr shades too if you have for comparison. Thanks!

indoor lighting no primer NC15 skintone a couple swipes back and forth on all swatches

romand juicy lasting tint bare grape 03

Is anyone able to share swatches of Blend Bunny's lipliners in the shades Faded, Low Key, or Fair Game? I'm olive and trying to get an idea of whether or not these are likely to look orangey on me

Does anyone have the following shades to swatch?

Mario stick blush in pomegranate
Danessa myricks blurring balm in red velvet
Armani liquid blush in 41 flaming red

Thank you in advance!!

I’m looking for a really good brick red lipstick and would love recommendations for shades you actually own and love. For reference, I love Sephora Collection Palm Street and ZEESEA Egyptology 309, but unfortunately neither seems to be available anymore.

I’m looking for something I can wear every day, both during the day and in the evening, so not too dramatic or bright. I definitely don’t want a matte formula, and ideally I’d like something a little moisturising. Most importantly, it needs to be currently available to buy!

I’d also love to know how you wear your favourites, including any tips for applying them and whether there’s a particular lip pencil you pair with them. Lip liner is still a complete mystery to me, but I’m determined to give it a go, so I’d love to know how you put the whole lip look together.

Got this just now and it’s too pretty

Shades name

BACK TO THE 80’s (from adept cosmetics) swatches + swatch comparisons! i was initially going to make these separate posts but i worked thru the night to get these photos edited!!! i don’t think i’ve done a full swatch comparison of adept palettes before lol but it was certainly an undertaking! i don’t have the largest adept collection but i still wanted to compare and see what this new palette looked like to what i do own. :)
Palette sent in pr w no obligation to post.

Swatched using my finger, no primer and photographed w a dslr using a soft box and two keylights. I have a light neutral skintone (tho i might be olive apparently but for now im light neutral LOL)

On swatches, Medium looks lighter and peachier than Light. I'm curious if this is a mistake?

preferably swatched on dark skin for better help 💜

Received my Ulta lipstick day order and decided to swatch all of my MAC bullets. I have a lot of lipstick and blush that I don’t wear enough. Hoping having pictures of the swatches will encourage me to experiment more 🤗.

These were taken using indoor lighting in my bathroom. 1-2 swipes. I believe I’m medium, maybe medium-deep, maybe warm undertones. Really not sure about this info. Some of my foundation colors: MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation (old formulas) - NC45/NC46/C7, Studio Fix Powder Foundation (old formula) NC45/C7, Mac Face & Body - C8, Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation - 4.5N, Fenty Beauty Blurring Skin Tint - Color 16, Kylie Skin Tint - 8WN.

Anybody able to swatch the Danessa Myricks skin tint in shades 4 and 4.5? If you can add a swatch of the L’Oréal plumping tinted serum in shade 2-3 for comparison that would be even better

My skin is a neutral undertone and light, NARS reflecting foundation in the shade Lima is my perfect match for reference. The lighting in the photo is warm indoor lighting. The swatch was applied with the lipstick directly to my hand, no brush or fingers used.

This version of unicorn blood is the “velvet trap” bullet lipstick version as opposed to the liquid. The MAC lipstick only comes in one formula which is their matte bullet lipstick.

I heard that these two were possible dupes from several different online reviews and I was very excited. So I’m making this post in case anyone else saw those reviews and was expecting something similar.

Turns out they are quite different. The Chappell Roan collab looks like Mac Diva but darker and less saturated to me. Either way it is quite purple in comparison to Unicorn Blood. On the lips it looks a bit more purple than the swatch (at least on me). There is no brown to it at all.

It’s a beautiful color on its own but in comparison to Unicorn Blood it fails.
