Does anyone have Mirabelle and Best Friend? I'm really curious to see/know the difference.

These cream blushes are awesome, so natural and so far Devoted has lasted 5 hours of me running around cleaning, shopping and cooking.

Thank you very much!

Silver, I can swatch both for you tomorrow. Off the top of my head I think Mirabelle is more on the coral side and more sheer. Best Friend is pretty opaque and a peachy pink leaning towards pink. :)

Sooo bummed I missed out on My Pretty! But I'm holding out hope that the lippie release to come will have a similar color! :D

I got Madison and 5th Ave. and even took pictures but I can't find my card reader so...meh. :roll:

Madison is a bit pinker melon shade than I expected (more watermelon than cantaloupe) but I agree with lwoodall10, it's gonna make a lovely blush...and I think it'll pair beautifully with Flame! 5th Ave. is such a pretty teal, can't wait to wear it with Lagoon to give it a shimmery boost, or a brown shade for a more muted look.

Yeah, Madison looks more pink than I was hoping for (I wanted an orangey-pink salmon shade, to do a salmon & gold eye look -- any recs for that?). Those cream blushes look GORGEOUS, thanks for the swatches! :)

ETA: The GWP before Fuse was Shewolf. I think My Pretty was before that.

Ugh, with that description...*shakes fist at Susan*...now I don't want them; I NEED THEM! In the cart they go. :shock:

I'm hoping there's a full-sized, non-plumping version of My Pretty coming. I love the color so bad but have huge lips!

Edit: does Madison look like any of the existing blushes? I'm trying to talk myself out of buying more eyeshadow...

Depending on your coloring, I would recommend Cabana, Tiger Lily or even Journey. The latter is a pretty warm coral that could work as salmony, maybe with a bit of Fire on top to tie in with the gold?

Madison sounds lovely though; going on my wish list :)

I thought there was another one before Fuse, but for the life of me couldn't think of it :?
