Truly vs Foreplay

Post by egerandi » Sun May 16, 2010 6:51 pm

I'm looking for a peachy neutral, and Foreplay seems to fit the bill. Wondering how it compares to Truly though... If it's too brown, I can't do it :( I have Darling to match Foxxy, but don't use it too often as it's a bit too brown for my taste. I'm hoping Foreplay will work better?

Darling was too brown on me (also my sister I sent it to). I was wondering about Foreplay too.

This thread from the other forum has a good swatch of Foreplay. http://www.87px.net/mmf/viewtopic.php?f ... y&start=20
It is next to some similar colors, so maybe you have some of them for comparison. I was undecided b/w Mimosa and Foreplay (they are supposed to be very similar with Foreplay having a touch more pink) and ended up getting Mimosa. So I do not know what Foreplay is actually like, but Mimosa has no brown to it at all. HTH!

foreplay is peachy pink. It's not bright like truly though... I don't recall any brown in it.

I debated between Foreplay and Mimosa like Oxana did and chose Mimosa too, because it doesn't have pink in it. It's not brown, its not like Truly either (Truly is brighter). I can put a sample of it in your package if you want :D

I think if you are looking for peach, Mimosa is definitely the most true peach. It is lighter than Truly and more opaque. Truly is also more coral than peach.

Thank you ladies, and that swatch comparison was just what I needed. I have received a Mimosa sample a while back, and it didn't do much for me. I just received another one (like a tease, hehe), but it's already finding a new home, I won't try again :) Thanks for the sample offer, Tiara, but I think I'm gonna go for Foreplay after all.

Ahhh, makes sense! You'll have to post how Foreplay works out then, maybe it'll show up better!

Mimosa doesn't actually look peach on my lips, though it does on my hand. But I usually assume my weird lip issues don't apply to everyone else, especially when I've seen pics of it on others and it actually looks like a neutral peach! :lol: I think I need more opaque lippies for the colors to show up...here's hoping there's an opaque peach in the summer lippie line up! :D

Have you tried Ingenue? It's pretty opaque, and kinda peachy.

I love Mimosa and was wondering about Foreplay and Mirabelle. Sigh, we're all in trouble. :lol:

For some reason "peach" looks red on me. :?:
