They're both nude and plum, but Sugar Plum has shimmer, and is slightly deeper. I think of Fig Leaf as more of a daytime color, and Sugar Plum as it's evening cousin. I was shooting for a finish that's kind of like Bobbi Brown's metallic lipsticks with the new ones- they're not a true OTT metallic, but they do have a lovely bit of shimmer.

I am also wondering about Vintage, Fig Leaf, and Sugar Plum. I am hoping for swatches coming soon to a Jen's Swatch Gallery thread.... but if somebody else can help sooner, I would be grateful! :mrgreen:
