Hibiscus shows up strongly for you? :cry: For some reason it's very sheer and not intense at all on me, while Azalea has plenty of coverage + intensity - and yet on the shop they are both listed with the same opacity level. I like it, and probably use it more often now than I would if it had more coverage (it's a lot more everyday like this), but it isn't what I expected, nor how it seems to be on others... hmmmm! Showstopper and Shrieking Violet are next on my list, so maybe pairing it with Shrieking Violet will get me a good strong fuschia.
For what it's worth, Hibiscus isn't obviously shimmery for me either though :)

Well, I have pigmented lips, so pretty much anything shows up more intensely (which makes *me* cry when it comes to some light pinks). I tried Showstopper a couple nights ago as a sample came in my package, and it's more intense than Hibiscus. I gave my Azalea away as it was too close to Hibiscus, but I'm definitely ordering Showstopper :) I usually don't even wear Hibiscus on its own, only with Shrieking Violet, to play up each other. You could also try Crazy Love for a bit of a different hue, and it also goes great (even better than Hibiscus) with SV.
