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 !
Thank you!! What do you think of the lip scrub?
It has good and not so good qualities.... The granules are more finely textured than the fresh scrub. The base of the scrub is moisturing. My lips were definitely softer after using it but they were very slightly tacky- like there was a thin film left behind. Also because the base of the scrub has some color, my lips were slightly stained. When I looked real close I could see some pink in the lines of my lips.
Interesting! Maybe I'll get the blue/yellow untinted one then.
Looking for swatches of Guerlain KissKiss lipsticks. Particularly Fabulous Rose, Pinky Groove and Rosy Boop. They're all online only, but if I'm going to spend that much money on lipstick, I'd like to know what I'm getting!
It would be good if Sephora stores had an Online Only corner, with testers only. Colors are so hard to tell online and monitors are unreliable. It would be so much easier to order with confidence, and the store would certainly cut down on returns.
That is the most amazing idea!
Thank you! Let's start a campaign - spread the idea here on BT, and poke Sephora until they come through!
Not the greatest at swatches but here is Pinky Groove. I would say it is a nice medium pink with just the right amount of shimmer not to be frosty. I like it a lot!
anyone have nars deep throat blush?
I have a deep throat mini that I've only used once or twice. It's yours if you'd like.
I just bought one today! :)thanks tho
Yes... Do you want to see it next to anything?
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.
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).
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!
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?
Does anyone have both Tom Ford Naked Coral and Tom Ford Forbidden pink???
I have forbidden pink. I can swatch tomorrow for you.
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.
I'd love to see that! I'd greatly appreciate it ❤️
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.
I don't think the set of 12 has gone on sale yet.
