Hello! I think this is my first swatch post... I just got Givenchy Heroic Pink and wanted to see how close it was to some others I already own.

This compares, from top to bottom:

• Tom Ford Didier
• Buxom Menace
• Nars Fanny
• Givenchy Heroic Pink

First photo is indoors, while the other is outdoors.

It looks like Givenchy Heroic Pink is pretty close to Fanny, except for Fanny appearing slightly more red or pink. What do others think?

[jozkid]

Heroic Pink is definitely leaning more blue/purple than Fanny. The intensity is right there, though.

The Givenchy looks as though it has a tiny bit more black or blue in it.  It's slightly deeper.

I think that they're almost identical, except the Givenchy one might pull slightly more purpley. They're all beautiful shades though!

Unsolicited swatches of the new Clinique 'Honey' cheek pops

the lighter one is 'Pink Honey' and the darker one is 'Black Honey'

oh! thanks for the swatches, P! I'm loving Black Honey. Do you think it's similar to Cola Pop at all?

[Mochapj]

@MK89 I looked at them after the fact and Cola is darker and more red. 

Black Honey is lighter and more pink toned.

Catherine is the coral I looked for for years!

@TKLJ, shoot, maybe it's also the coral I've been searching for for years?!

Anyone have a swatch of Nars Stud eyeshadow? I saw they were back in stock.

[Elles117]

@Samtian There is a swatch on the NARS thread that was posted earlier today. I have Stud and it's a fantastic eyeshadow! If you need a swatch on a lighter skin tone let me know and I can search mine

[Samtian]

Thank you, that would be great if you could, I'd appreciate it. 

[Elles117]

@Samtian I'll do it tomorrow so that you can see it in natural light 🙂

[Mochapj]

Here is sassy grape in action.  Do we have an ABH thread somewhere? I should probably put this there if we do 😉

[fatimamummy]

Beautiful and very helpful. They look very wearable on. You should make a ABH thread @Mochapj? I would have but I have only handful of her products so I think it is better if someone who has a good ABH stash start the thread.

[Ispend2much6]

That's way more natural looking than I thought it would be.  I like it!

[Mochapj]

Thanks, me too!

 Unsolicited swatches of the Laura Mercier Eye Art Caviar Inspired palette

The shades aren't super exciting nor is there great variety, but the mattes are pretty creamy and pigmented. The darker shimmers felt a little drier (especially the last one) but the lighter ones were very nice.
