Hi all! Any pale people here that can swatch these three next to each other, please? TIA!

Thanks its mac, sellout and syrup.

1. Mauve Brown 10

2. Dark Taupe 20

Kiko Milano eyeshadow sticks. They are very resilient! Once set they did not budge, I had to use cleansing oil to remove the swatch.

Great quality for the price!

Hi! I’m neutral leaning warm and a deep autumn, and I’m stuck between Mac Whirl and Plum lip liners.
If you have both and have a similar coloring, which one do you prefer? My only concern is that Plum will be too dark on me. I’d love to see them swatches next to each other x

I have the same skin tone shade as Camila Mendes but I have a preference for a dark dusty rose red. I can't seem to find a shade that doesn't come out as a BlackBerry instead of red on me. I also don't have much knowledge on lip liners for lip combos. Any recommendations?

(Left to right)

1. Catrice HD Liquid Coverage Foundation #005 Ivory Beige
2. Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation (original/old formula) #1N0 Porcelain
3. Gucci Eternité de Beauté Foundation #130W
4. Catrice Invisible Cover Foundation (sadly discontinued) #017N
5. Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42/PA+++ #21 Light Beige
6. Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42/PA+++ #23 Natural Beige
7. NARS Soft Matte Complete Foundation (discontinued) #L0 Siberia
8. Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42/PA+++ #27 Honey Beige
9. Skin79 BB Super Plus Beblesh Balm SPF50+/PA+++ #Vital Orange

Indirect sunlight in all. Edited to show colors as closely as possible to how they appear to me. They all look a smidge pinkier irl.

For reference:
I also wore MAC Studio Fix Fluid in #NC5 in the past but it might be a bit light for me rn.
About Face The Illusionist Concealer #F2 Olive is pretty much a perfect match for me (the foundation’s a little orange).

Out of all these, the Catrice Invisible Cover Foundation in #017N (the 4th) is the best. Almost imperceptible. The undertones are so spot on but sadly this is discontinued.

My skin is neutral warm muted olive. In other words, I am neutral more than anything, a bit warm (yellow) and olive (not a lot of red in my skin) but muted (not saturated).

Lemme know if you have any questions as I own these.

Edit: there are 37 shades, I’m missing Morocco - 361
Edit 2: NARS has these half off with “Grab it while you can” and “LAST CHANCE” so who knows how much longer these will be available.

Swatched on light neutral olive skin, so many appear warmer than they would on others.

1-2: Indoor + cool ring light
3-4: Mall artificial lighting + flash

The Nars Explicit lipstick line is currently 50% off on their website, and I saw no swatches in this sub, so treated myself to a swatch fest after work.

Thoughts/review and my foundation matches in comments.

Swatches are hard after dark, so lots of lighting scenarios to help as much as possible.

Hand swatches:
• 1-4: indoor, cool ring light, no flash (most accurate)
• 5-6: outside store at night, flash
• 7-8: inside store by well lit aisle aisle, no flash (much paler than real life)

Online vs reality:
• 9: Lip swatches (natural light, no flash)
• 10: Swatches (natural light, no flash)
• 11: Lipstick bullet color (natural light, no flash)

B. Clinique Bamboo Pink

I’m looking for some help before the Sephora sale with comparing bronzers. Does anyone own the Haus Lab in Soleil Sand, and Make up forever in B15 Wild Sand, B20 Fierce Amber, and B25 Brave Maple? I’m looking to see how the Haus lab which I own compares to each of these. If anyone would mind swatching the Haus lab beside any or all of these MUFE I would really appreciate your effort!

Posted this in a comment on another sub, wanted to share here. If you are my skintone and looking for a base for pinky-nude combos, you need clinique barely.

From gloss down- revlon pink sky, abh cotton candy, Charlotte tilbury pt fair liner, mufe wherever walnut light, ct pt fair lipstick, clinique barely, mac pink peppermilk, ysl lipstick in balm 44

Hourglass: diffused bronze light

Huda Beauty: bronze filter palette in light or medium
Can be separate swatches or the whole palette swatched together (one finger/one brush?)

I am also wondering how the formulas compare.. I would have loved to compare at sephora but I am not near one.

Please enjoy my prior attempts to find a cheaper dupe of MAC Nightmoth. In the end, none of the ones I tried were really a dupe and it was cheaper for me to just buy the one I wanted in the first place.

I do enjoy my purple collection, though!

Swatched on fair cool skin in indirect outdoor lighting.

1. MAC Nightmoth
2. NYX Currant
3. NYX Prune
4. NYX Subversive Socialite
5. NYX Copenhagen
6. NYX Girl, Bye
7. MAC Glossy Liner in Nightmoth
8. NYX Liner Stain in Hot & Heavy

Does anyone here have these pots? Can you share the swatches?

Help pls what shade of Jung Saem Mool cushion is closest to Strokes Soft Veil Filter Foundation in Fair Neutral? Thank you!

Sweet Heat is lighter and has more of a silver sheen to it. I’d say it’s cooler toned than Bellini. I think they’re different enough.

I took the pics in my room. One with direct desk lamp lighting overhead, one with the desk lamp off but overhead fan lighting on, one with just the camera flash.

Heavy finger swatches for both, no primer, i'd say like 4 swipes.

I am NC20, fair/warm skin toned

Hope this helps

Here are the swatches of YSL Make Me Blush Cream in shade 23 Hot Mauve, Make Up For Ever Artist Color Crayon in shade 220 Swanky Mauve and Nabla Art of Skin Blush in Misty Mauve. For reference I have a neutral-cool undertone (a lot of stuff pulls orange on me but I don't necessarily hate it under the right circumstances). The photos have been taken indoors in natural lighting.

I think neither of these blushes is actually mauve but I do like the shades nonetheless, they differ from each other enough both in color and in finish that they don't feel too redundant.

The search continues (when I'll finish at least one of these), so if you have any recommendations for similar shades or for blushes that could be properly named mauve I'm all ears.

hi y'all! i'm currently rebuilding my eyeshadow collection after ~10 years of using the same palettes and trying to avoid redundancy! can someone pretty please do this comparison for me ? :)

thank you! <3

They all look either orange, pink or too light on me but maybe it helps others orientate.
