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 !

So funny when we realize we buy the same color over and over again! I mean not the SAME SAME!! @makeitup305 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@sister13 same same but different lol. I will say these have different formulations and finishes so maybe they're different enough? 😜

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks @makeitup305 , I love to see these kind of comparisons! Well, it just goes to prove you love what you love and know what looks great on you! 🥰 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom idk if it's even the most flattering on me, it's just an easy one to throw on because it goes with almost anything. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Beautiful blushes, @makeitup305!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@curlychiquita They’re all really great products! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks for these lovely swatches, @makeitup305 ! 💖💖💖

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Titian06 I had to swatch them all together once I realized how similar they looked lol

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

New SC eyeshadows. These are marked as "glitter" but idk if they contain actual glitter since they feel quite creamy. They are very pretty and shiny. From left to right these are SEPHORA COLLECTION Sephora Colorful® Eyeshadow 105 Twinkle Twinkle SEPHORA COLLECTION Sephora Colorful® Eyeshadow 104 Ballet Shoes SEPHORA COLLECTION Sephora Colorful® Eyeshadow 308 Smell Of Roses . The components themselves are not magnetic but it opens up at the bottom so you can take it out and depot it into a magnetic palette if you like.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Great to see these thank you @makeitup305 ! 🥰

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom they’re surprisingly good!

 swatches of the SEPHORA COLLECTION Cream Contour Stick which kept selling out during the sale. The lightest shade is quite cool, so if you were looking for something almost gray, this might be it. The second to lightest was also very cool but seemed to have a little olive to it.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I’d be interested in trying the lightest shade, @makeitup305! I still love my WA Biscuit.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@curlychiquita I think it’s quite a bit more gray than Biscuit, more as to create a true shadow. The formula is very creamy and pigmented so I have to be careful with the shade I have so that it doesn’t get muddy.

The Light to Medium Shade (closest to the wrist) versus some of my other contour shades - Kevyn Aucoin Contour Stick in Light, I'M Meme, and Westman Atelier Biscuit. It's deepe and more brown.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@missjeanie here are the new Lip Lab lippies I ordered. Try saying that 3 times 🤣. They looked so similar I got worried but of course they are different! Lol well, similar , naturally ! Berry is like a deeper Beetroot I guess. These feel like the originals almost , maybe a little smoother but not like the last Bite we got from Sephora. Some are the citrus scent and others minty. Yum. 2 were damaged and they re-did them plus credited. Great CS! Love to hear if you try any! 🥰

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

There's a Lip Lab close to where I live and I've been wanting to try some of their new shades or customize one. How do you like the new formulas?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

How fun @makeitup305 , you should go! I do like them. Some of mine are more matte and a few others are more satiny. They aren’t quite as heavy ish as originals or the last version that was more powdery. These are not that. I have always loved the taste of them. I love the mint as a breath freshener but the rose and citrus is so good too. I wish they were a little less $ but everything is so high anymore and these are such small batches so I really don’t mind, it makes sense. All of the SAs are so fun too. You gotta let me know if you do go! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks for the info @Sunnysmom. I wish they still had some of the LE holiday shades. I wonder if I go to the store if they can make that shade for me there. 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I think they can yes @makeitup305 ! They have the formulas on file etc! 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

@Sunnysmom ooooh good to know!
