I hope I'm not sounding greedy here, but I would love to see more dupes of Benefit blushes and bronzers-particularly Throbb, Hoola and Dallas. Can't wait to get my hands on the Dandelion dupe!

Hi! New here, I just received a sample of Laura Mercier lip gloss in the mail. It looked fabulous and I thought it was great until I went online and looked up the ingredients. :cry: I am searching for something like it, but with all-natural ingredients. So my wish list would include a clone of Laura Mercier lip glace in "baby doll." Such a pretty color, very natural, but with a hint of sparkle: http://www.lauramercier.com/products/co ... lip_glace/ It's hard to get an idea of the color from the swatch online. If it would help, I'll buy a tube of it and send it to you, Karen! So glad I found this website, and looking forward to trying your products!

That looks a little like Foreplay from the swatch, but you're right - it's hard to tell. Kind of a pinky/rosy/with a little brownish colour thrown in?

Thank you, Rhys. It is close to the color of Foreplay, but maybe more like Breathless? I'm not sure. Infatuation looks very pretty, too. Maybe I'll just try a couple and see whether anything comes close to LM Baby Doll. Thank you for helping me with this!

I have two more lippies for the wishlist.... MAC "Viva Glam 2" and Bobbi Brown´s "Tawny".
Both are soo gorgeous, but thanks to the ingredients, a little too drying for my lips to wear often.. :-(
I am kind of hoping they will be released with the next part of the MOAC.. ;-)
Wishful thinking FTW!!

So let's say that a certain cosmetics company owner happened to make a clone of a certain Viva Glam color (the second one to be exact)- what would you name it? It's a coffee with cream color- light, but not too light, and very nude.

Butting in here and haven't seen the color since I'm not much of a MAC girl, but since it's like Viva "Glam" - what about something fun like "Glam-tastic"?

Weeeeh!! <- this is me running around excitedly!

A name...hmmm..."Cafe Latte" / "Cafe au lait" ? "Naked"..."Glamorous" (and now I am thinking of Fergie..).. do you notice how bad I am at coming up with names??

Can you give us a hint what the theme is for the 2nd part of MOAC? That would help. ;-)

Those all look great! The name game is hard...we have to be in a certain mood to do it, and sometimes a bottle of champagne helps (in moderation of course, but it does help to loosen us up).

The basic theme to round 2 is Mild to Wild- we have some new eye shadow colors that are designed to work with the gel liners to make really fun effects. It's not as focused of a theme as the first round's berry theme, but a fun one. We have more sparkley, bright colors coming out this round mainly because we went to NYC a few weeks ago and had dinner at Lucky Cheng's- which is a drag queen restaurant, and I was just fascinated by their makeup- those girls really know how to glam it up. It was like "coming home" for me- I got to hang out with a bunch of 6' tall girls with big feet who were really into makeup- just like me (well not quite- I'm only 5'9")!

Cancel that theme- I'm going with a Sand, Sun and Fun theme for this release. Jen emailed me this morning and inspired me. I think I'm good for the moment! Back to the lab!!!!
