Thank you kindly @saire ! These are both beautiful options! Me too! Bring on the glow right?!

@Sunnysmom  Thanks for the swatches!  I agree with everything you said about Spicy Berry.  The BB looks pretty!

[Sunnysmom]

I’m sure it works for some @Ispend2much6 , but not so much for me! Lol. Yes, you’d probably love the Lancôme berry. Did you get any of their new blush or powders? Beautiful finish to them! 

[Ispend2much6]

@SunnysmomNo, I haven't.  Maybe someday.

[Titian06]

Thanks, @Sunnysmom !  The Lancome looks more flattering than the YSL.

[Sunnysmom]

It seems to be I think @Titian06 though I adore the YSL blushes! The new Lancôme is really such a good formula I am still shocked I guess! Glad to see it for them! 

[Titian06]

@Sunnysmom - I stopped by Ulta today.  They had the Lancome blushes, but not the berry blush--not even a spot for it.  I was very disappointed I couldn't swatch the color.  I did swatch a couple of the other colors.  These blushes are soft and smooth.  Maybe, one day, I'll buy one. 🤗

[Sunnysmom]

Oh no @Titian06 , shoot! That happens to me so often too! Glad you could see the others. They really are a lovely formula.

I stopped by Sephora inside Kohl's and swatched HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Talc-Free Blush Powder With Fermented Arnica Pomelo Peach (in the middle).  When I got home, I swatched the original version (on the right).  You can see the original is more pink and the new is more orange/peach.

The color on the left is HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Color Fuse Talc-Free Blush Powder With Fermented Arnica French Rosette .

Interesting @Titian06 , thanks for this! 💞

[Titian06]

Exactly, @Sunnysmom ! 😁

[Ispend2much6]

@Titian06  Very pretty!  Looks like it applies very smoothly.

[Titian06]

It felt nice, @Ispend2much6 . 😍

Requesting swatches of Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerise Cream Eyeshadow Pillow Talk and Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerise Cream Eyeshadow Rose Gold  please 😁

[AMK721]

@Sunnysmom @Ispend2much6 I stopped by Sephora yesterday waiting for my nail appointment and swatched those two shades. Neither of them are pink like I was hoping for. 

[Sunnysmom]

Ah yup those are not a true pink @AMK721 tho beautiful! Not exactly sure what shade or texture you are after but Trinny cream shadows are my very favorite as a base and on their own. My lids tend to be a bit sensitive though. I’m sure you’ve roamed all the brands but my eye caught these ideas just in case:

Danessa Myricks Beauty Colorfix - Multi-Use Eye, Cheek & Lip Waterproof Liquid Pigment Petals 

Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Cream Eyeshadow Starlight 

Bobbi Brown Mini Long-Wear Cream Eyeshadow Stick Golden Pink 

ILIA Liquid Powder Eye Shadow Tint Aura - I really like these

Bobbi Brown Dual-Ended Long-Wear Waterproof Cream Eyeshadow Stick Pink Mercury/Nude Beach 

Glossier Lidstar Long-Wearing Shimmer Cream Eyeshadow Slip 

also Victoria Beckham in Ballet looks really pretty! 

Just some ideas from the ole peanut gallery! 😆 Will be fun to hear what you land on in your quest! 🌸

[AMK721]

@Sunnysmom oh those are so pretty especially the Danessa one. Thanks for sharing.

[Ispend2much6]

@AMK721 @Sunnysmom  Yes, I did have a few of these.  Mine got too old and supposedly the formula changed so I never replenished.

I think the Pillow Talk one showed up as brown on me.  And the Rose Gold was too warm/orange for me.  That much I remember.

But I have different experiences than most with a lot of shades, so I'm not one to trust on this!

[Sunnysmom]

Thanks @Ispend2much6 , thought you had a few of them. 😊 This kind of formula is tricky for sure too, sorry yours didn’t work out. I liked the shades I saw but irritated my eyes a bit. 

[Sunnysmom]

Those are so pretty @AMK721 ! I wonder if @Ispend2much6 maybe has them? I remember she used to have a few shades? 

[AMK721]

@Sunnysmom I agree, they look beautiful. I have a stunning Tom Ford peach eyeshadow and looking for a pink version. The CT ones look so nice. I might just go to Sephora to see the difference in these two shades, but I'm on a no/low buy for a while and walking into a store is just asking for trouble LOL 😂
