Verve Vs Temptation??

Post by la_canadiense(01) » Fri Jan 08, 2010 7:00 am

Hi loverly ladies, I am wondering what the difference is between Verve and Temptation? I tried to search but temptation doesn't come up, too common of a word.
:P I am looking for a semi-pigmented Coral colour. I love the red lippie (have Crimson and love it) but I wanted a bit more coral-y. I think I had a sample of Verve and I seem to remember it had a bit of frost or pearl to it. Is this true? :?:
What is the difference between these two? Is one a bit cooler/warmer?
Thanks! :ugeek:

I'm not sure which one is cooler, I think Verve is....Verve has a bit of pearl shimmer in it, noth frosty though, and seems to be on the red side of coral. Temptation is more golden and is a few shades lighter than verve and maybe slightly more on the organge side of coral. I don't know if that makes sense, as I am terrbile at describing colors :oops: :(

Of the two I prefer Verve it is really pretty on. :)

Thanks lwoodall10!
that is the one I am leaning towards. I did get a sample of it once but I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere...I remember thinking it looked like a nice coral colour. I am a typical cool coloured girl (Olive) but I like to think I am young enough to still pull off some colours that mighn't be the best for me. And my DH is bugging me to get this type of colour. So funny, he love the bold lip on me.

you're always so quick with answering posts here!! :) thanks

I received a sample of Verve, too, and I loved the way it looked on me. Then I read the description as was a bit surprised to see it is considered on the warm side since I am very much a cool toned girl. Oddly, my reading the description keeps making me question ordering one, despite the fact that I was very happy with how it looked on me. :?

I think if you liked it you should buy it. I think generally we all know when we put a lippie on whether it works or not, so I'm sure it looks great on you. I don't think it is too warm though. For me, and I am warm it is just warm enough not to be that scary orange coral. ;)
