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 !

And we can guess that the palettes will be as good as the names...

In a rush...I skip eye shadow but always have tons of lipstick in my bag.  It's a must have!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Can anyone please swatch Tom Ford Lipstick Violet Fatale and Velvet Violet???

 

I grabbed all the TF lipsticks that I KNOW will look ok on me, but violet (or magenta) is not my shade to go. I already have Velvet Violet, so I wanted to know how Violet Fatale is compared to VV. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

What's your skintone? I don't have them with me right now but I can post later if no one else does. In the tube, VV is matte, brighter, more pink and has no shimmer; VF/Xavier is satin, darker, more purple and has shimmer.

Light (not super light), neutral skin tone!

If you can spare some time, can I see your swatch too...?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you so much!!! I had trouble searching through Sephora...!

I may skip VF after all! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

GC and I think they are the same except for VV is matte.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

VV looks more opaque to me too, that could just be the lighting or my eyes

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I have violet fatale (xavier in the lips and boys), but I do not have have VV. I am happy to post VF, but I'm sure someone has both 😉

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Could someone please swatch Mac Dark Side Vs Mac Sin... I have Sin already and trying to debate If I want Dark Side... Thanks 🙂

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I'm interested to see these swatches as well.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I couldn't resist the packaging of the Dark Side lipstick ( I just gave in and ordered all four of the Magic of the Night Collection) So when I get it in I can swatch them if someone hasn't by then. 🙂

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I've done watches over in the MAC releases thread of the 3 permenant colors that launched, Please Me, Dark Side, and All Fired Up. I can post them here if you would like. I don't have Evening Rendezouvs yet though.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I have dark side, but don't have sin. 😞

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I decided to swatch a couple other popular MAC lipsticks for reference since I don't have Sin.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

i have sin but not darkside. i can post a swatch tomorrow. if you want to post yours, it may still give dd a good idea ? i think sometimes in this thread we'll need to get a bit creative

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Yes please!!!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Comparisons of TF formulas in Velvet Cherry and Impassioned. Slight color differences in them. Impassioned original seems more red and satin matte more brown red. Satin matte still my favorite.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom   Those are simply gorgeous!  I can see why you like them.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Ispend2much6 so predictable right?! 😘

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thx you so much @Sunnysmom 🥰 I ordered Impassioned Metallic last weekend or so along with a bunch of other stuffs. None of them shipped yet. I’m kicking myself for not ordering all of them first day of the sale 😘 The ones I ordered first day of the sale came so fast 😂🤣
