A couple of questions on lippie colors (pics of my haul)

Got the lip swatches done.
On my eyes I have Sunny on the inner half of my lid, Propinquity on the other half and in the crease.

Oxana,
All the colors look nice on you! Excite, Blaze and Blushberry look great. I actually had to go back and look up Excite and was shocked to see it was the sheer gold color. I'm thinking Blushberry w/ Excite may look like Blaze? I wasn't planning on getting Excite and Glacier, but in my cart they go!
Sunny turned out to be a winner. I wore it today. Propinquity looks nice w/ it, are they the same finish (I love Sunny's finish)?

Thanks, some are a bit bold for everyday, but will be good for special occasions.
I think Blushberry w/ Excite will be lighter than Blaze, but I'll have to try and see

I like Sunny a lot too, I think Propinquity is a different finish, it is less shiny, closer to a suede finish than Sunny.

LOL! Oh My God! Am I that dark that all my lipswatches are that bad?? Blushberry on me did not show up that "stark" in the pictures. They barely showed on me compared to you. And I laid them on REAL THICK! Looking great Oxana!!

Excellent, Oxana. That's ever so helpful to see them on. I really struggle buying new lippy colour and seeing them worn makes all the difference. Nice work, thanks!

I don't think your lip swatches are bad at all. As a matter of fact, I think they are super helpful to those with similar skintone to yours. I think it is really good to see what the lippie will actually look like on, and between my pics and yours I think we will give people a really good idea of that

And I am really pale, I usually get a tiny bit of color in the summer, but this summer I was indoors pretty much all day everyday. So most colors look really dramatic on me if they are darker than my lips. And my lips are apparently really light because I have not found any colors that are as light as them, lol.

Both of your swatches are great, it really helps seeing them on a person, not just lips. I got a sample of Beguile in my last order and it hardly shows up on me!! It is such a nice punch of color on Oxana. I so know where you are coming from. I am light to light medium but I guess my lips are DARK! Colors like Cassis,Raisin and Sultry look pretty natural on me! Maybe Bombshell will be my new everyday color...haha!

I had an amazing swap with a super generous lady from this forum that included lots and extras and samples, so I have tons more pics for you all

I totally forgot to take a pic with nothing on my lips, but I already have like 3 "nothing" pics in this thread, so you can look at those

Hibiscus was a sample and I think I will be ordering a full size for sure, it is a super pretty sheer pink that looks really natural on my lips.
Dancing Shoes is amazing, this was another one of the samples, I hope it is released so I can buy a full size.
I know I swatched Mango and Bella previously, when I just had samples of them, but now that I got full sizes I thought I'd re-swatch.

I love dancing shoes! I hope Karen will bring this back into the line permanently! its so pretty. The AlG formula is beautiful and all the colours look so pretty on you esp blaze and blushberry! I need try these as I haven't tried any of the ALG glosses.
Fashionista and crazy love look great on you!
