Glam Doll! If Barbie wanted a fall color, this would be the one...




One of this fall's Make It Mine Limited Edition colors, Glam Doll, was released last weekend, and what a release it was! At first glance, it just looks like another wine, another berry, and in the tube, it is similar in appearance to Berry or Mulled Wine.

Me!

Out of the bottle though....wow. What a perfect fall shade! It's really pretty similar to the lettering in the flyer, an earthy, neutral, brown-pink shade....but to me, it looks like a dark chocolate brown with a heavy cherry tint to it. Very deep burgundy that of course, looks different on everyone depending on your natural lip color.

At first glance, my thought was that this was too similar to Mulled Wine, but after doing a comparison test with this color against Mulled Wine, it's nothing like it. More brown, less berry. Please note that Neutral and Currant are retired and no longer available; I added them to this comparison picture in the event that you have them and are wondering if they are similar....which they are not. If you are looking for a nice neutral like Bella but that is darker for fall, THIS IS YOUR COLOR! (And I really think Barbie would approve!)



This color looks completely clean and glamorous....and yet complements warm and cool skin tones alike. It would be at home with a flannel shirt and jeans as well as an elegant formal dress. It has some cherry red tones but enough brown to be perfect for fall without looking purple. It reminds me a lot of a black cherry lip color....similar to Clinique's Black Honey which is known time and time again on Top Ten Lists for the colors that look great on everyone. 

Application of this color is not problematic, but since it is a darker color, I would recommend strongly to apply in one direction and to remember to allow each coat to dry to the touch before applying the next. Due to all of the various tones in this color, any gloss would work well with this color from Sand Gloss (warm) to Pink Glitter Gloss (cool). 

It is the ultimate perfect choice for fall. What are you waiting for, doll? Contact me today to get YOURS before this perfect color is sold out!
