Theo and Liam are different! I find Theo warmer and the formula is much, much better 🙂

[lnum]

Thank you! I will pick up Theo afterall then. 😄

[Mochapj]

Do you have Bite 010?  

Theo ended up being identical to this on me.  

[lnum]

Ah I do have 010 actually, darn...I was all trigger happy too, lol. 

[Mochapj]

Here we go, obviously YMMV:

Spoiler

Theo is the bottom of those 3.

And this is 010.

[lnum]

They look great on you! And yes, very similar, although 010 has a slightly different finish. I guess I'll report back once I get them. I don't mind having both as traveling with my L&Bs is so much easier, and the TF formula lasts much longer on me than the Bite. 

[Libellules]

Well, FWIW, I found 010 to have a different finish (and formula) than Theo. But Mocha and I have different coloring 🙂

[lnum]

Ah I went with Kingston, Theo, and Roberto! Done! 

[Mochapj]

I can only answer a couple of these.

Tomas/Hiro - I've seen swatches from Temptalia and from someone on BT who owns both and they really look near identical.  I would go Roberto.

Eric is a rose gold, and some of them are really heavy on the shimmer.

Liam and Theo are pretty similar, but the finish is different  IMO, so I guess it depends what sort of finish you prefer?

[lnum]

Thank you! I'll go with Roberto, and Eric is out. If I ever run low on Tomas, I will consider buying Hiro.

[Mochapj]

If you ever run low on Tomas, they make it in big size too (Sunset Blvd) 😉

[lnum]

I love the mini-size, though, perfect for travel! Also, I wouldn't mind having an excuse to buy a new color that is ever so slightly different. 😉

[Mochapj]

Temptalia's review of Starry Night is up today.

She did not seem impressed with it either.

[meganlisa]

I thought it was lovely but the blue (mine) was patchy and I had a hard time getting it to apply evenly.

But the shades are beautiful.

[lachaton]

I find she's usually unimpressed with TF quads. Which I can understand - she does a good job of explaining why in her reviews.

But it is one of the situations where I need to take her reviews with a grain of salt, because I just seem to have a different experience with mine. 

But the Starry Night review does give me pause... I'm really iffy on this one!

[Anonymous]

I often wonder whether she's more critical at higher purchase points? Does she mention anything of that sort in her posts?

[virgo87]

It usually doesn't mention price points as being a reason. I see on Starry Night it is mainly due to the opacity and blend-ability of the shadows, it sounds like most are sheer and have to be built up.

[Libellules]

Maybe I just got a really awesome, easy to work with Starry Night :x

[virgo87]

Maybe, or you just aren't as a critical 🙂

[Libellules]

That's an interesting thought - maybe. But to that point, I'm surprised her first review of the Natasha Denona shadows was so kind.

[Anonymous]

I chalked this up to being that they're mostly satin/shimmer nudes that she's reviewed so far. I doubt any of the deeper (especially matte) shades are getting good reviews based on her swatches.
