MAC Lipsticks: Petals & Peacocks, Ever Hip, Blooming Lovely
MAC Give Me Liberty of London: Lipstick Reviews, Photos, Swatches
The lipsticks are in white packaging with the MAC for Liberty flowers and bird printed on the tube itself. There are four shades released, three of which are new, and one of which is PRO–Peachstock.
Lipsticks ($14.00 U.S. / $16.50 CDN)
- Petals & Peacocks is a creamy, brightened up fuchsia pink with an amplified finish. It’s like a mix of Show Orchid and Girl About Town–like the color of Show Orchid, but the texture and look of Girl About Town. It’s fun and playful, but you may have a hot pink in a similar shade.
- Ever Hip is a peachy-orange with a glossy sheen in a cremesheen finish. On my lips, it translates a bit more coral-pink because of the pink hue of my natural lip color. It’s not quite as opaque as I’d like once it gets on my lips, but it’s a nice shade of coral.
- Blooming Lovely is a subdued mauve-y lilac with a glossy sheen in an amplified finish. This an interesting color, because I’m not sure it’s one I could pull off by its lonesome. I’d definitely have to pair it with a gloss to brighten it up and make it more wearable for me. It’s like a lighter, more lilac version of Up the Amp, but it’s a way darker and less blue-based Saint Germain/Snob.
- Peachstock is a peachy-nude with a very creamy finish and opaque result. Reminded me of Freckletone a bit, but better coverage and less orange.

i WANT the petals and peacock lipstick. its beautiful!
I think I love you,Christine. LOL! Just kidding, but seriously, you are amazing!
Do you think Ever Hip is too bright to be an everyday wearable color? I’m torn between Ever Hip Lipstick, Frankly Fresh lipglass, and Perennial High Style, which I have yet to see!
Nah, I don’t think it’s that bright!
How would you compare Petals & Peacocks to Show Orchid lipstick? I have S.O. do you think Petals & Peacocks is worth getting??
They’re different, because Show Orchid has a different finish/texture and has a fuchsia/purple sheen. If you don’t wear hot pinks often, I don’t think you need both, but they are different enough to own both if you like it!
That’s good to know because i was wondering the same thing.
these are some beautiful colors! Especially loving the petals and peacocks
AGRH! the colours in this collection are KILLING me!!! thank you Christine for these swatches! >.<
By far this is the first time where I’ve ever felt like I wanted to get every lipstick that you’ve reviewed so far. I’m in love with Petals and Peacocks AND Blooming Lovely!!
holyyyy crap. i need all three of these NOW.
wow, if you don’t think Ever hip is pigmented on you, it definitely won’t show on me, that sucks, I am totally digging that color!!
I’m so disappointed. :< I'm in love with the packaging, but these colors just seem so hard to pull off.
Totally agree. I love the packaging and wish it was at least one everday wearable item I could get. They are bright so its more like an “ocassion” item.
I think Peach Stock will be more wearable (not shown) than these. Love the packaging as well.
I have all of them and they all can be a an everyday wearbable color you just have to tone down your eye make-up to make it work, and honestly petals and peacocks looks so beautiful on the lips it brightens your face like no other lipstick I have seen, because it is just a straight creme and doesn’t have any frost or iridescence in it, it is truly lovely. Can you tell I am in love 🙂
I was thinking the same thing.. probably going to skip on these
Petals & Peacocks! Yeah! ;-)) Love it!
i have a bad feeling that i’m going to end up buying like 10 blooming lovely lipsticks /faint
LOL!
Petals & Peacocks is absolutely perfect<3
Really like the other 2 shades, too.
Ever Hip looks really pretty on! And I love Cremesheens!
Now I am battling between looming lovely and ever hip…
I thought I would only want one of these. Now after seeing them I want them all!!
As much as I want Blooming Lovely, I know I’m not going to be able to pull that off. How do you think it compares to Fashion Mews from HK?
More muted, more purple, more pigmented.
how about with lav whip? 🙂
Darker, more gray-ish.
Great, thank you!
Do you think I could pull off Blooming Lovely if I did not like Lavender Whip and Fashion Mews on me?
From some of the swatches it looks a lot better, more mauvey.
TIA
To be honest, probably not. It’s more muted/darker/grayer in a sense, but I don’t think it’s easier to pull off!
The three swatches together are gorgeous! So colourful! Since I already have Show Orchid, I won’t get Petals & Peacocks, but I might just get Ever Hip, it’s gorgeous!
These’s are soooo pretty!!!! Thank you for the swatches. First thing I did when I woke up was get on this website for the swatchs!!! How does blooming lovely compair to lavender whip????
More muted, kind of duller/grayer? in a sense. Not as light!
So good to see lip swatches, thank you Christine!
I think I can actually pass on all these lipsticks. I tend to like things with just a tiny bit of shimmer or sparkle (my favorite MAC lipsticks are pigmented lustres that have shimmer, like Sweetie or more recently, Fresh Salmon). I don’t see enjoying Petals & Peacocks or Blooming Lovely on me at all, and Ever Hip is not unique enough for me to get all excited over. I just got Shy Girl, which I’m wearing a lot, and Ever Hip looks like a slightly deeper/more orange version of that. Good though, means I have money for the glosses 🙂
Petals and Peacocks FTW!!! I love it!!!!!!!
The purple one reminds me of those Funky Lip tars…OCC Lip tars…thats what they are called..right??
Yep, that’s what they’re called!
These are lovely!! How does blooming lovely compair to lavender whip??
It’s darker, a little more “gray” in a way.
I think I want Ever Hip and Petals and Peacock!
Ahhh! I want all three of them! But.. Riveting hasn’t even arrived at my local MAC yet.. Should I cave and get both Show Orchid and Petals and Peacocks? Are they too similar? I already have Girl About Town and Trimming Talk (LE).. whatcha think?
I’d get Show Orchid and skip Petals & Peacocks 😛
Great thanks!!
I want them all three.
I’m loving these sooo much. Thankfully, I need to B2M soon. Score!
AHHH I want them all! I will get Blooming Lovely (has the hunt for a nice purple l/s finally come to an end??!?!) and probably Ever Hip depending on how it looks.
I love the pink but just got Pink Burst and feel that is similar. Thoughts?
And Peachstock is a Pro so I can hold off even though the packaging is lovely.
Pink Burst is more fuchsia and has all the shimmer/sheen of its finish, but they’re similar. It’s kind of like, how often do you wear hot pink? If you don’t wear it often, you don’t *need* too many!
I looooove hot pinks BUT in reality I don’t wear them that much to work or. *sigh*
Thanks for helping me with this decision 🙂
Ever Hip looks so much more GORGEOUS on your lips than the tube! Will have to check that one out.
Petals & Peacocks looks lovely, but I alreadt have Show Orchid AND Pink Burst, so I really don’t think I can justify another hot pink lipstick. Peachy colours like Ever Hip never seem to work on me, so that leaves Blooming Lovely. I missed Lavender Whip (*kicks self*), but I do have Up the Amp, so I may need to swatch this to see how different they really are and whether or not I take the plunge…
Scroll down for comparison swatches of Blooming Lovely vs Up the Amp & Lavender Whip: http://www.specktra.net/forum/f217/mac-give-me-liberty-london-mar-10-a-156034/
Hope this helps. 🙂
awesome! thanks rosanna! Looking at it there, it seems different enough from UTA that I think I can allow myself to indulge 😀
Bigger fan of the packaging than of the color. Petals and Peacock looks just absolutely lovely on you! These colors would not look cute on me at all!
OMG NOOOOO I want them all 🙁 i didnt think id want anything from this collection.
ahhh
These lippies are the best in this collection! Thank you for the swatches, Christine! How is Ever Hip compared to Ravishing? If I can pull off Lavender Whip, do you think I could pull off Blooming Lovely, too? It looks rather special.
More coral, not so peachy-orange!
I think so 🙂
I love the way Petals and Peacock looks, but how similar is it to Show Orchid? They come up looking almost exactly the same on my screen.
Oops! Sorry, I think I missed the part where you already mentioned Show Orchid.
It’s pinker, doesn’t have the fuchsia/purple sheen of show Orchid.
the lipsticks are REALLY the only think i want in this collection. thankfully because i’m also not sure if i get my pro discount on these :/
I love all of these, but the packaging is so hideous it hurts.
It’s like a hipster urban outfitters packaging that should have been made 2 years ago when everyone dressed like a grandmother.
petals and peacocks oh my! that’s a fierce shade! Yea I think I’m scooping all three and the blue nail polish 🙂
I’m surprised to know that Peachstock is a pro color in the US. In South Korea (Where I live), Peachstock is a permanent and it’s one of the most popular shades along with Angel. I love Peachstock so so so so so much. I’m sure you’ll love it too! 🙂
you live in South Korea? I’m from Korea, too! 🙂 lol just felt like saying that..haha sorry I’m just weird like that XP
I love them all! I know that Petals and Peacocks can easily be duped so that can wait, Ever Hip is pretty but it’s rather light and there may already be permanent coral MAC lipsticks that are darker than this one, Peachstock is too light for me also like a lighter version of Siss, so that leaves Blooming Lovely and Blooming Lovely is the one lipstick that I MUST have out of these, and I’m an NC45.
I missed out on Lavender Whip and this color looks even more wearable than Lavender Whip, which looked very sheer but very blue on me. I already wear Up The Amp to the officwe without any lipglass nor do I use a lot of lip pencil to change the color of it.
The more I wear Up The Amp the more I love it, and I’m into strange and different colors on my lips these days because I love to do what’s different’, especially in the summer. I would definitely love Blooming Lovely. Even permanent colors like Pink Nouveau and Vegas Volt are really starting to tempt me, I can wear Pink Treat Cremestick Liner with the 1st one and a bit of Cork lip pencil with the other one.
What is a good good dupe for petals and peacocks? I just recently got into make up and I would REALLY like that shade! So far I haven’t seen anything like it online
Does anyone know how Petals and Peacock compares to Lickable? Thanks!
Similar, but I’d say this is a little brighter!
Thanks so much!
i actually love all three. i think i will be getting them :]]
is blooming lovely like lav. whip?????
OH i saw your responses! will have to check it out
It’s darker, grayer, and more mauve.
Pedals and Peacocks would be amazing with Electria Frushia
I am really digging Petals and Peacock, but Christine how do you think it would play on a NC43? Also, have you done a review on the new MAC foundation? Thank you, I just love your site.
I think it would be fine on your skin tone!
No, I haven’t, sorry!
Holy cow, is there any color you can’t pull off?! Wow~!!!
im going to have to get blooming lovely. i always love a pink purple color
I want Blooming Lovely and maybe Petals & Peacocks!
I’m such a lipstick whore after the Spring Colour Forecast!
pretty packing, pretty colors, but not for me!!! jajajaja
Hey christine!
i love your website!
Can you think about any dupe for ever hip from mac’s permanent line?
i just wanna know i dont have anything similar ^^
cause if i dont i am totally getting it 😀
Ravishing would probably be the closest, though it runs more orange than coral!
try Ravishing + Please me
Petals and Peacocks is SO pretty! Must have <3
Which do lipstick do you think is better: Petals & Peacocks or Show Orchid?
It just depends on what you want, really. I personally like Show Orchid more, but I like the fuchsia sheen that Show Orchid has ’cause that’s more my style!
OMGAH, Petals & Peacock is like the perfect neon pink! I love it! I currently don’t own any colors like that. Love Blooming Lovely as well.
Are these a permanent addition or are they limited edition??
xo
They are all LE!
Christine, how would you compare Blooming Lovely and Bubble Gum?
I wouldn’t, because I don’t think they’re similar! Bubble Gum is brighter, less purple, and not as dark/gray as Blooming Lovely.
Hi Christine, Happy Tuesday!
Ever Hip Lipstick or Smashbox Splendid Lipstick?!?! haha or both? (no, seriously dont think I can actually do both $$ :p)
Ever Hip is more orange, Splendid has a nice glossy sheen. I think I might opt Splendid here!
thank you so much….yeah I see what you mean ever hip seems a little dull so it needs a gloss while when I swatched Splendid it could be worn alone…you’re the best.
I am loving that packaging and that Petals & Peacock lipstick looks so amazingly vibrant and beautiful! I may just have to buy it!
all three look so great!! i want all three of them, but NEED petals & peacocks and blooming lovely! i also think i’ll love english accents lip gloss. so so so excited! thanks for the sneak peak, christine!
I’m not loving any of these lipsticks. Thanks for the swatches.
I want them all. Peachstock is my HG l/s. I already know the shade. I hope I can pull Blooming Lovely off.
Is Blooming Lovely anything like Lavender Whip?
Darker, grayer, more mauve-y.
I want all 3 🙂
Oh wow! What a great selection of colors! I gotta have Ever Hip For sure. 😉
there sooo pretty but i could never pull off colors like dat 🙁 especially since im 14 lol that would look a little funny… i guess i’ll have to invest my money in different parts of the collection oh the agony hahaha. but i like the bright pink and lilac one… very pretty 🙂
I have lavender whip and it never turns out lavender on my lips. It always looks like a light pink! Do you know if blooming lovely would do the same thing or would the lavender stand out? This always dissapointed me about lavender whip!
Do you have a lot of pink to your natural lip color? (or even red?)
I think this would do something similar – might turn it more like a plum.
Um, yeah I want it all! I think I love them so much I’m gonna buy back ups of each… YAY!
Ever Hip looks so pretty! I want it <33!!
The shades are beyond beautiful!
i think i might get them all including Peachstock they’re all lovely = ]
My top faves are Ever Hip && Petals & Peacocks, i just bought Show orcid yesterday but it looks different compared to Petals & Peacocks i like them both.. The packaging is sickkkk! i love it!!!!
Thanks for the swatches Christine they were super helpful! =]]]
No prob, Norma!
definately want ever hip!
all the lipsticks you swatch always look so good on you!
youre lucky! i have yellow undertones in my skin and im pale so its hard to find lipsticks (especially pink ones) that dont look weird on me!
Thanks, Ellie 🙂
are ever hip and hue similar?
Not on me!
i’m going back on forth about blooming lovely because it looks like it could be an exact dupe for nyx power….and then about petals & peacocks because i have gladiola. argh!
hey christine, i’m new to linking photos from your post. but wanted to let you know it’ll be on twitter and I’ll tag you =)
I like Petals and Peacocks, but just bought Show Orchid last week… the other two lipsticks don’t appeal to me at all, which is a good thing given that I’m trying to limit my cosmetics purchases for a while!
Holy crap! I want all of them!!!
HOLY CRAAAAAAAAAAAAP i need Petals & Peacocks in my life. Actually I want all of them, but that colour is INSANE.
Hey Christine, is Blooming lovely similar to Mac Snob? Or any other? Thanks!
No, it’s much darker than Snob, IMO.
Wow… I like Petals and Peacocks and Blooming but they both look like the colors from the OCC lip tarts…so I think I will pass on them and end up getting the lip tarts since I’ve been eyeing them. And Thanks for giving the info about pass l/s combination. I am so getting Girl About Town and I’ve just got Show Orchid and love it!!
Christine! How does Ever Hip compare to See Sheer (luster) in color?♥
Ever Hip & Blooming Lovely are a must on my list! I already own Show Orchid & Girl About Town, so I’ll skip on Petals & Peacocks. Though I absolutely love that name!
I think Ever Hip is much more orange-coral and not nearly as bright as See Sheer!
See sheer also has a frost finish for a lustre. Ever so hip is a creamsheen, so it is a smooth, creamy finish as appose to any kind of sparkle on the lip. I bought it and it is my absolute favorite from the entire collection! And it is very day time wearable, as most creamsheens are. 🙂
Ever Hip is my fave, I already bought it at the party and am going to wear it with the peachy coral lipgloss too
Ever hip is so gorgeous!
I just love hot pink lipsticks so much! I have nars schiap, ysl rouge volupte in provocative pink (which is my least favorite), mac chatterbox and girl about town. Now, this petals and peacock … lovely too but i like show orchid more. Christine, should i still get show orchid or they are all the same shade?
I think you should still get Show Orchid.
petals and peacocks looks amazing! think I will pick that one up. In two minds over blooming lovely. It would blatently look ridiculous on me, but then I could just buy it and look at it from time to time… beautiful!
Wow I love these colours! I’m definitely going to be getting at least two bloomin lovelys. But petals and peacocks is such a pretty color as well.. But I don’t know if I would wear it that often
Thank you for these pics. Just wondering…..
Are Ever Hip and Ravishing (from the perm line) similar?
Ever Hip is more coral, Ravishing is more orange/peach.
Thanks!
How does Blooming Lovely compare to Lavender Whip? They look similar.
Darker, grayer, more mauve.
Oh! love them all. Thanks. It comes so late to Sweden 🙁
Im torn between Ever Hip Lipstick and Perennial High Lipglass, they look like the same colour! Its one or the other for me to save me money!
If you like more pigmentation, always opt for the lipstick!
Your definately right, After I saw Ever Hip in your look that you just posted, I knew I was most likely going to get Ever hip. Its so gorgous on you! The pigmentation is important!
I must get Blooming Lovely since I missed fashion muse and Lavender Whip =)
LOL it’s Mews =)
Ever hip looks totally amazing 🙂
OMG!!
Thanks Christine. I really want to get the Show Orchid now but too bad the Riveting Collection hasn’t arrived yet in our country.
Petals and Peacocks is gorgeous!!!!!!! It actually reminds me of the 80’s, don’t you think? Madonna, Cindi Lauper… Ah, those were the days. 🙂
Ever Hip is nice too, but Blooming Lovely is just terribly bloomin’ aweful. Not even your pretty lips could sway me to like it! Very dead colour. Something that would be fitting in Tim Burton’s new movie Alice in Wonderland, me thinks.
But dead is hot.
i agree ak! ill definitely be getting blooming lovely
Wow this collection is gorgeous! i really want blooming lovely because i love lavender lips and i missed out on fashion mews. what non-sparkly lipstick or ligloss could i pair it with to get the more frosty colour of fashion mews? i was thinking the bubbles lipstick from the riveting collection but i think it had a gold sheen.
Hi Starr,
You could try Bountiful plushglass!
thank you! ill definitely go try it!
omg blooming lovely is my fav!!
Hey Christine, How would you compare ever hip to freckletone? obviously their different finishes, but the color seems similar.. hmm..
More orange! 🙂
Hello I was wondering if Blooming lovely would be a possible dupe for Lavander whip?
I think it’s darker, grayer!
Is it just me or is Blooming Lovely absolutely identical to Lavender Whip??
From your honest opinion..do you like lavender whip or blooming lovely better in terms of a lilac/purple lipstick and wearability? I already own lavender whip so i am trying to decide if i should get blooming lovely or not? Do you think its a must have?? I am definetly getting Ever hip though!! luv peachy corals!
I like Lavender Whip for its lightness 🙂
OMG. Blooming Lovely is gorgeous. I’m dragging my mom back to MAC on the eleventh if she recovers (she had to bear with bad costumer service from a blush addict today, lol).
how does petals & peacocks compare to gladiola from Dame Edna???? I know that gladiola is a Matte finish but if i have gladiola and show orchid do you think i need Petals & Peacocks?
I’d say it’s a little more pink, but they are similar enough that you could skip!
Isn’t Ever Hip lipstick similar to YSL Peach Passion?
More orange I’d say…
Thank you! Oh well.. Peach Passion + Tangerine Dreams then 😀
Oooh I’m definitely gonna get the “Ever Hip” lipstick!
Hey Christine!
I’m ordering them online (because i just can’t wait for it to come to Australia ): HAHA) Is ‘ever hip’ more true to the lipstick or on your lips? because i LOVE it on your lips! (:
I’m an Nw35-42 would the other 2 suit me? Will it be too bright for me to carry off? I don’t really wear too showy colours! If i had to choose one, which should i pick! ): thanks!
xx
If you have pinker lips, it’ll show more like on my lips — the natural pink of my lips kind of dulls down the color of Ever Hip. I think you could wear it! 🙂 I’d pick Ever Hip of the three, if you don’t usually wear showy shades!
If you were talking about picking one between the other two… I’d say Blooming Lovely.
Thank you so much Christine, you always reply all my questions (: & yes i do have quite ‘coloured’ lips nauturally! I’ll be getting ever hip & blooming lovely! yays (:
Hi Christine,
I was just looking @ my 3 lipsticks from this collection which include Blooming Lovely, Ever Hip, and Peachstock. Both Ever Hip and Peachstock I purchased off Ebay about a year ago (Blooming Lovely I purchased off a seller on Amazon) and I noticed that Ever Hip said “Made in the USA” while the other 2 say “Made in Canada.” I found that odd bc all the lipsticks I though was made in Canada, is this true? Also, the Peachstock’s “M
Estee Lauder has factories all over the world. If you purchase your products from MAC stores, counters, or their website, you shouldn’t have any concern about where it is made.
Thank you..well i missed the collection so that it why i bought it on Ebay and as a result don’t know where the people i purchased it from bought it =(
How does blooming lovely compares to lavender whip?
Grayer, more mauve, not so light/lilac.
Oh man, I literally scrolled thru the comment section reading so many repeated questions asking to compare blooming lovely and lavender whip (for example) yet you still manage to repeatedly answer the same questions over and over again. Your persistence amazes me Christine! And no sign of annoyance whatsoever, it’s no wonder your site is so popular 🙂 Btw do you think Peachstock is too dark as a nude for me, I am somewhere in btw NC15-20. Thanks! (i hope nobody asked that question already lol)
It’s all good 🙂 I don’t expect everyone to have the time to read through the many other comments left on this post!
I think Peachstock would be just fine on you! If you found it even a smidgen too dark, you could always lighten it with a gloss like C-Thru.
Cool, I have that gloss 🙂 can’t wait to check the lippies out tmr! and thanks lol
Wow, two of these look totally unwearable…by me anyway. I happen to love the packaging, so I hope that the the one that is missing here, Peachstock I think, is more wearable. I love enough of the entire collection however that I will be enjoying enough of the packaging without these lipsticks:) The blush, several eyeshadows, the Beauty powder…a lip glass.
What lipstick color will look good on medium to tan asian skintones ? I’m thinking about Ever Hip . . . But , i love your advices ! Lol . XD
Ever Hip would be nice!
i went in today and swatched and preordered! i got summer rose (which i SO did not plan on getting), ever hip, blooming lovely, 2 perennial high styles (GORGEOUS!), and english accents. happy early birthday to me 🙂
Hi Christine!
How does Ever Hip compare to Shy Girl?
Way more orange!
Is Blooming lovely similar to Lavendar Whip?
It’s grayer, muted in a way – more mauve than lilac.
how does EVER HIP compare to BRAVE NEW BRONZE and CHERISH ? thankyou!
IMO, it’s nothing like it. It is closest to Ravishing!
Hey Christine, Could you tell me if Ever Hip looks anything like Shy Girl L/S. Also could you tell me how it compares to Costa Chic and Lollipop Loving L/S? Thanks
I think Ever Hip looks great on you. I’m a sucker for corals.
It’s not like Costa Chic or Lollipop Loving, IMO! Costa Chic is redder, Lollipop Loving is way frostier and has the green sheen. Shy Girl isn’t quite so orange – pinker I’d say…
Thank you for such a quick response Christine:)I’m going to get it when it comes out in the UK.
how does petals & peacocks compare to gladiola from the Dame Edna???? I know that gladiola is a Matte finish but if i have gladiola & i have show orchid do you think i need Petals & Peacocks?
I think you could skip it!
In your opinion, do you like lavender whip or blooming lovely better in terms of a lilac/purple lipstick and wearability? I already own lavender whip so i am trying to decide if i should get blooming lovely or not? Do you think its a must have?? I am definetly getting Ever hip though!! luv peachy corals!
I like Lavender Whip a bit more for its lightness. I think you could mute it down to make it more like Blooming Lovely. If you LOVE purple lipsticks, probably should grab it, but if you rarely wear Lavender Whip, then skip!
What would you compare “ever hip” to from the MAC permanent collection?
It looks gorgeous on you but I dont have time to go to the MAC counter to see if it looks nice on me or not : ( The nearest MAC 3 hrs away .
Ravishing!
Aww really?! I haven’t tried that one either,
is it similar to Shy girl at all?
Ahh, its sold out too : (
What do you think of Peachstock or Ever Hip on my dark pigmented lips if I’m NC44? Thanks!
i just want the lipstick because of the package ,i have these colors already 🙂
can you ask your friends of different races to do swatches ?i love how clear your pics are but i’m dark tone .:) ?
Sorry, that’s not possible 🙁
I took a trip to mac today, sad to say this collection overall was not that impressive ladies. The lipglasses are ok. Everything else can be duped. Mac gotta step up there game!!! Nice packaging though!
think ur missing the peachstock review
liking ever hip and peachstock!
I knew I would LIKE “Petals and Peacocks” and “Blooming Lovely” but I LOOOOVE these!!! “Ever Hip” does take a little work – But it goes nicely over the orange lipliner that came out… Last week? It’s not nearly as opaque or creamy as the other two though (I LOOOOVE my Amplified Lipsticks).
Question for you though Christine – Have you tried, at all, the Lime Crime Lipsticks? I am having a tough time deciding if I should get a backup of these two amazing lipsticks… But Lime Crime has some similar colors – I just haven’t bought them yet. AAAH! Dilema!
OK, so I’ve had all of the Lime Crime lipsticks since they debuted. Then the ~drama~ happened, and I just haven’t decided what to do – whether to review or not, so I haven’t touched them (because if I review, I photograph them brand new, lol). But if you want me to review, then as long as you’ll let me blame you for any ~drama~ then I will for you 🙂
Haha! You’re awesome AND hilarious and now I want to giggle and gossip with you (while shopping of course)! LOL! Feel free to not post this for everyone to see, but this is what I think:
Personally speaking, I would LOVE to see a review of the LimeCrime lipsticks from you – You’re reviews are intelligent and detailed with clear, large photos. Plus I always feel that, even if you end up raving about a product, you start off pretty unbiased, which is important to me as a reader. So… A+ for you there! 🙂
I honestly think that that MOST people don’t even know what the hell LimeCrime is, let alone know about ANY drama surrounding the company. Those who DO follow the drama are also the people who are most likely reading Temptalia though and I’d hate to have any of that drama hurt what you do. I would hope that people could separate the product that they reading about from any of the drama surrounding a company, but I can see why you have been a little stumped and haven’t reviewed them yet.
I’d still love to see your review on the lipsticks. If you do it, you can blame me all you want! My time is important to me, it’s the only thing I have to give that I can never take back – I spend it carefully and reserve VERY little of it for spinning circles of drama.
But if you think you’ll take heat from your readers for doing a review, I’d say skip it. It’s not worth it. I can’t BELIEVE I’m going to type this but: It’s just lipstick.
Yeah, it’s just that, “I don’t want to waste my time on the drama” factor, but I will try to review for you 🙂 AND BLAME YOU FOR IT!
I wanted to like Ever Hip soooo bad because I want a coral lipstick, but when I tried it on it way a horrible bright coral on me… Looks much better on you.
Aw 🙁
I did a post on my blog with Lavender Whip on my top lip and Blooming Lovely on my bottom lip and you can not tell the difference. Maybe it’s the pigment of my lip but it looks exactly the same on swatches on my had as well.
Petals & Peacocks is sooooo Gorgeous and I love purple lips too so Blooming Lovely will be mine. I can’t wait for this collection to launch in the UK.
