Hey guys! I got Armanis lip magnet in nuda to go along with the second skin i own as well! Heres a swatch of nuda on my lips and also a comprison of both on my arm in natural daylight!  Nuda is the lighter one in the swatches.  It is quite coral, but actually pleasant! Generally corals look kinda gross against my skin tone but I like the look of this one!

I was so curious about this shade!  It was sold out on sephora and not carried at my local sephora (which carries most, but not all, of them).

It's a lot more coral than I expected.  Love it on you though.  It definitely has a lot of pink mixed in as well!

[sabrinas]

@meganlisa Thanks! I honestly just impulsively bought it from saks because I had a promo code and the samples were pretty good lol.  I didn't expect a coral like this, but I like it! I don't own anything like it :).

[meganlisa]

@sabrinas I shy away from corals too, then like them when I try them.  Your coloring is similar to mine so seeing stuff on you is always helpful.  Thanks!

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.  

[glossyguru]

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'

[MK89]

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.

@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 🙂

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