Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Can anyone help me out with a side by side of Bite LLLR 01 and UD Shame?  I saw Temptalia suggest Shame is a good dupe for the Bite but I want to verify.  

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I will try to do this tonight !

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I am trying to decide if I "need" the Carousel Meteorites if I already have the Clair 02? Does anyone have both they could swatch, please? Thank you!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Randell, the Carousel meteorites are very pink; I can use them as a blush (I usually wear ivory or buff in foundations, so I'm pretty light.)

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

You should ask in this thread:

 

http://community.sephora.com/t5/Beauty-Insider/For-the-love-of-all-things-Guerlain/td-p/2180749/page...

 

It sounds like a few people on page 3 have used them. It sounds from what they're saying that the Carousel Meteorites are much more rosy than Clair, but you could tag them and ask if they have both!

Any dupes of MUFE Morello Cherry?  I don't have $21 to spend on a single eyeshadow but I LOVE the color 😧

 

Also, if anyone has dupes available for theBalm Matt Kumar & Matt Moskowitz from the new Meet Matt(e) Trimony palette I'd love to see!  Currently trying to TMO the palette :3  Thanks!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Temptalia gives you a list of possible dupes for Morello Cherry:

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

The only one that looks really close is MUG Mars, which is only available in the MannyMUA palette and I'm not buying the palette for just 1 shade 😧  Wondering if anyone knows of any MAC or Inglot dupes?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Can someone please swatch Nars Madly vs Benefit Dallas?  

 

I feel like I can't find good swatches of Madly, but maybe I'm just not good at finding them!  Anyway, I have Dallas and use it all the time and the swatches I keep seeing look very similar... I don't know if I need both.  thanks!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Dallas heavy, blended, madly heavy, blended

in person madly is lighter and peachier

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you so much!  This is really helpful

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Several people were curious about the new Becca blushes. Here is Snapdragon compared with Nars Orgasm, Nars Deep Throat, and Too Faced Love Hangover.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks for the swatches! It's a gorgeous color but I feel like I enough similar colors that I can pass. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you! I like that it has more of a sheen compared to Orgasm's straight-up sparkles.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Does anyone have both NARS impassioned blush and Tarte dollface blush to do a side-by-side comparison? I have dollface but am really eyeing impassioned. I was able to pull up Temptalia's side by side comparison, but it's just photos placed together, not swatches completed together. I can't find any other comparisons. 

Thank you!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@BaseballMommy I'd say they're quite different. Dollface is a very cool toned blue-based pink while Impassioned is more of a mauve-pink and it isn't nearly as cool toned or bright. I've only worn Impassioned twice so far and found that it leaned a little cool on me, but was still very pretty on even though warm blushes are generally more flattering on me.

 

I find they swatch pretty true to pan

When someone asks for comparison swatches I try to see if I could apply them to get a close result. For example, if a very light swatch of Dollface was close to Impassioned. 

 

Top to bottom: very light application of Dollface, normal Dollface swatch (2-3 swipes in pan), and a normal swatch of Impassioned. Just below Impassioned I did a very light swatch of Impassioned as well, but it's nearly imperceptible.

Thank you so much, @kso1225!! That's exactly what I needed to see to help me decide. It'll stay on my list!
