Carnation Vs Precious??

[JenK]

Some how I missed Carnation is the more opaque version of Precious!!!!! If anyone has tried them how would you compare??? Is Carnation more of a plummy-pink like Precious? I

Really? Wow.. I find them *completely* different. I can't for the life of me find my Precious but it's a colour I wear a lot, and I find it somwhere between Foreplay and Peace, it's actually very similar to Peace I think. It's warmer than Carnation, which is a very smooth quite opaque, cool plummy pink (on me anyway). They're similar enough to hang out but I wouldn't say they're related!

Thanks for the reply. I don't think I ever clicked on Carnation before and was surprised to read this:
With Carnation Vegan Lip Gloss I was aiming for a more opaque version of Precious- so it's a light pink with nice opacity (darker than Bloom) and a nice hint of golden pearl. I think it will flatter just about anyone who wants a lighter pink lip gloss.

I really liked Precious, it was very sheer on my pigmented lips. On me it was a pinky-plum...but it could have just been my natural lip color coming through.

Yeah, I don't find them close at all. The only similarity may be the gold flecks in both, but while Precious is basically just a nice layer of light warm shimmer on lips, Carnation is definitely opaque pink with barely any shimmer.

Thanks for the info. I ordered Fanfare instead, can't wait to try the formula.
