Ha! I'm curious of that, too. And to Teacher's Pet as well!

I think I'm on a (highly unusual, for me, Miss Colorful) neutrals kick. I'm loving Model, and I ordered Teacher's Pet and Glory yesterday. Planning on Ion in the next.

Speaking of, does anyone know how Teacher's Pet and Glory compare? I figured they were both were having since they're SN and I'd heard raves for Glory, plus I had to have Teacher's Pet because it's for Hermione!

Glad I'm not the only one! I'd love to see swatches of Ion next to Fusion, Touring, Teachers Pet and Glory.

cclee00 - I'm loving Model too. A lovely lady sent me a sample and whow my eyes look so refreshed!

Okay! :)

I don't have Fusion or Touring, and no Ion yet, but I can swatch Glory and Teacher's Pet along with a couple others when they get here.

Kinjali - I wore Model as a one-color wash the other day with subtle pink lips and cheeks and it was amazingly pretty. Very fresh and understated!

Bumping to see if anyone can describe or has or can make swatches of Ion next to Fusion, Touring (the two that I'm really interested in), Glory and Teachers Pet. TIA!

Ion is a lighter shade than Fusion...more of a taupe/gray than Touring and Teacher's Pet which are more golden browns. Completely different finish than Glory, but probably closest to it in color without the gold flecks.

Thank you JenW!!! The descriptions definitely help. Ion maybe a bit more gray that I was hoping for. But I did find a sample of 4matic in my stash and its a perfect my lids but better color.
