THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

alright, here it is. use this thread to request swatches. the guidelines are up to you and your needs: single swatches, comparison swatches, specific skin tone swatches

 

when comparisons are requested, feel free to provide whatever you have of that request--i want anyone to participate and contribute if they want to. have fun, hope this is helpful !

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Yes... Do you want to see it next to anything?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

A lot of fair folks often ask about contour shades for pale skin. I was swatching and comparing some of mine recently, so why not leave some photos here, right? Hopefully they'll be helpful to my fair peeps out there. 🙂

 

Left to right: NYX Taupe, Sephora Tranquil, and MUFE M540 Gray Beige (Matte).

These are all heavy swatches so you can see the colors better. All three of them are actually very light and very suitable for fair skin.

 

Left to right: MUFE, Sephora, NYX.

Top to bottom: NYX, Sephora, MUFE.

My personal fave is Sephora's Tranquil, because it is the coolest one. I am cool and pink, and this one is by far the best color I've found so far for moi. ( Thank you Sephora makeup artist who was chating with us on BT some time ago! I forgot your name, but you rulz! 😉 )

 

Before I got that one, I enjoyed the MUFE one pretty much, even though to me it's always looked kinda off on me. But it was the only thing that was working for me, so I stuck with it. It just doesn't compliment my skin tone well, imo. It looks warmer on me than what I like my contour to look like. That's all. I think this one would be great for neutral and warm folks.

 

I do not like the NYX one at all. The color, the formula, the wear... Nada.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I love tranquil!  A number of BTers recommended it to me and I absolutely adore it.  Oddly enough, it also works as a blush on me for off/unusual lipsticks (taupes, for example).

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks for the swatches! Do you happen to have UD naked 2 (from the Naked Basics palette) for comparison? That's what I've been using!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

No, sorry, I don't have that one. But, if I remember it right, that is a nice contour color for fair folks, too. Maybe you could post a swatch of it here?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I have forbidden pink. I can swatch tomorrow for you.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I now have both...blame my impatience! They ended up being quite different (to our eyes, at least), so I'm happy with my decision.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I'd love to see that! I'd greatly appreciate  it ❤️ 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Does anybody have swatches of Bite LLLR # 12 yet? I know it was released early so I am contemplating buying it once it rereleases in a few days. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I don't think the set of 12 has gone on sale yet.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

The color itself was released early on the Sephora website I believe. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Nope. Never released yet. The set of 12 is on Monday. Just 12 alone should be weds 🙂

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Would love to see any of the new TF lips and boys, especially lip pics which are super helpful. I got four but don't want to try any until I'm sure I will like them.

 

thanks!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Also reposting from the TF thread. Here's Daniel, Joaquin, and Tony. I have Jake, Drake, and Eric arriving on Tuesday.
