Hairpin on left, Sweet Tea on right. Apologies for poor quality, got a rubbish camera. Not a good representation except to show difference in depth. They're both warmer in real life.

Hairpin is a deeper brown with lots of gold, maybe a few flecks of olive. When it rubs down, there's a tiny hint of rose to the brown and gold. Sweet Tea is the colour of a new penny or a strong cup of milky tea. It's pearlier and slightly less shimmery than Hairpin. hth.
