Saint Germain (Amplified) (cool tone pale pastel pink) Although I love the color, it was too white based for me and washed me out a bit. It is creamy and a little streaky. Pigmentation is opaque. Possible dupes: BH Cosmetics "Boom", Covergirl "Enchantress", Maybelline "Pink Pop", Lime Crime "Great Pink Planet" Wet N Wild "Dollhouse Pink" (deeper).
Chatterbox (Amplified) (warm bright pink) This is a warm based pink which I felt more comfortable wearing than Saint Germain. It was more natural and warmed up my complexion. Possible dupes: Milani "Fruit Punch", NYX "Fig".
Pink Nouveau (Satin) (cool medium pink) A neutral/deeper pink. This lipstick is one of my most worn lipstick. Possible dupes: NYX "Summer Breeze", Wet N Wild "Dollhouse Pink".
Candy Yum Yum (Matte) (deep neon pink) The most neon hot pink in this collection I have. It's also my absolute favorite hot pink by MAC. It's bold, beautiful and stands out. Be prepared for compliments! Possible dupes: Maybelline "Fushsia Flash" & "Fushsia Fever", Milani "Rose Hip".
Show Orchid (Amplified) (violet fushsia) Violet pink with slight shimmer & sheen with blue undertones. An easy to wear color I reach for often. The tube is almost finished which shows how much I love this. This will look amazing on many skin tones. Possible dupes: NYX "Blue Rose", Wet N Wild "Fushsia with Blue Pearl", MAC "Pink Poodle".
Style Curve L.E. (CreamSheen) (bright violet fushsia) This lipstick took several layers to build up the color and it's still not opaque. It's gives a hint of purple and lacks pigment. Although it looks like a deep purple color in the tube, it's not. It's an easy to wear lipstick because of it's sheerness. Please note this is a limited edition item, MAC may or may not bring it back. Recommended only if you want a tinted lip stain. Possible dupes: Maybelline "905 Brazen Berry".
Impassioned (Amplified) (bright coral pink) A bright coral pink with red undertones. Has great pigmentation, glides on nicely and is build-able. A must have for Summer/Spring and will suit many skin tones. Possible dupes: MAC "Relentlessly Red" in a retro matte finish & "Party Parrot". Maybelline "Shocking Coral".
Relentlessly Red (Retro Matte) (Neon red coral pink) This looks similar to impassioned in a retro matte finish. This is a little dryer and has pigmented opaque finish. It's reddish coral and looks beautiful in any season. This would suit many skin tones. Possible dupes: Clinique "Long Last Soft Matte Peony", Sportsgirl "Watermelon". This one is also a shade or 2 brighter than MAC's All Fired Up.
My thoughts: I like all of these colors except for Style Curve, it went on super sheer no matter how many swipes I did. These colors are incredibly staining, but the lightest color Saint Germain was surprisingly the most staining.
