I just discovered my hidden stash of tiny sample bags and found Splendid in it. I tried it on and it does look nice. But it is barely noticeable on me, although it imparts a very subtle glow.
I think some of you already have an idea about my skin tone, but just to add for those who don't, I'm leaning to medium golden than light-medium (a mix of Creamy Bisque and Golden Medium in Lucy Minerals, MUFE HD 127).
I'm confused between Splendid, Liberty, Pristine, and Tempt Tryst. Any comments or suggestion?
TIA!

If Spendid was too light, try Pristine. Also, Liberty might be nice since it is more a golden shade.
The first three on your list are Perfecting Glows. Tempt Tryst is a perfecting powder, but it is slightly more shimmery than the other perfecting powders. They are all close.....Perfecting Glows are essentially glowier perfecting powders.

Hence the title! It was because I read somewhere int he forum that Tempt Tryst gives a glow like perfecting glow as well.
Is there any significant/noticeable differences between all 4? Maybe in terms of color finish on the face?

Spendid runs kind of peachy, Liberty and Tempt Tryst are kind of golden, and Pristine is kind of bronzey.....on me Pristine would be more like a light bronzer.

I guess I'll just pick up the samples then. Thanks Jen!
