Bloom and Cultured on lips

Thought I'd share Bloom and Cultured on lips.
They look really similar on me.

oooh...Cultured is really pretty.

I am off to add to the wishlist. I am holding out for the Holiday collection to make my order and it is killing me

Oh wow! Thanks for this! I am also waiting on the holiday collection! But do you by any chance have centerfold? I have been putting off buying it for so long! Every time I order I have it in my cart and then at the last min. take it back out. If you have it do you mind showing it too? Thanks

I'm so jealous, Bloom doesn't look anything like that on me. It's pretty, but a much darker pink:

I want a more opaque light pink that covers my natural color.

Bloom and Cultured look very different on me. Bloom is a darker funkier less opaque pink and cultured is rosier/brown/prettiness. One of these days I'll take a good picture of Cultured.

lwoodall10 - I think you'll like Cultured! I'm holding out til the new colors come out too.

iPunky1 - Sorry I don't have Centerfold. I have Bloom, Cultured, sample of Daydream and Birthday Suit and 2 others that are old and I think discontinued (Capricious and another one I don't recall)

Silverfern - I think because of how pigmented my lips are. It looks great on you though! It's funny that we both ordered Bloom and Cultured and also got Daydream as a freebie sample.

Sorry, no swatches, but I own both Cultured and Centerfold, and they look very close. Centerfold feels a tiny bit more opaque and cooler than Cultured, and they differ a bit in textures as Cultured is vegan and Centerfold isn't. Centerfold is my favorite nude lippie

LT16 - I don't know about you, but I can hardly wait for the holiday collection...I am goin to be in trouble though because I already have about 4 or 5 things on my wishlist from the last collection. I keep looking all the newly posted swatches and my list seems to be growing...

Silverfern: Have you ever tried ELF's studi line lip primer/plumper? I don't really use the plumber, but the primer side almost looks like a concealer and covers the natural color of your lip. I usually put some on and blot with tissue and let it set while put the rest of my makeup on and then apply lip color. It really seems to make the color last longer and you really get the true color of the lippie. You have to blot and let it set though, otherwise it kind of mixes with the lip color. It might help...

Egerandi, I think it is because of you that I want centerfold so much!

I need to just get it. I am going to add it back into my cart...again!

Thanks for the help.

Mission accomplished!

And if it doesn't work for you (I don't see why it shouldn't), you know where to offload it

LOL. Okay, I'm thinking of Bloom or Soft because hey - you can never have too many lippies. Divine was totally unwearable for me (for those who remember it, so I don't think Centerfold is for me), and Beloved is one of my best colours.

From the swatch it looks like maybe Soft and Beloved are similar, and Bloom is lighter coloured but more opaque?
