The colors are:

• Fashion Fame (light pearl pink)
• Like a Dream (mauve)
• Music is Magic (bright pink)
• To the Rescue (berry)
• She's Got the Power (dark purple) 

Fashion Fame is pretty sheer with glitter. This is not really a liquid lipstick and more of a gloss. It was gritty due to the glitter, but I was really into it nonetheless.

I've already worn Like a Dream. It was comfortable on the lips, not too drying, and didn't leave a dark ring on the lips as it wore down.

Music is Magic and To the Rescue are both really nice and opaque. Music is Magic is so bright, but I still see myself wearing it somewhere. These two and Like a Dream are all creamy and really remind me of the NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams.

She's Got the Power was a little disappointing. It's more sheer, and goes on unevenly. It takes a few coats to get a truly opaque color, but it can work. This one has some pearl to it, which might explain why it isn't as opaque as the other cream ones.

Overall, I am very happy with this set and excited to try it out more.

Disclaimer: This post contains my own opinion. I have not been sent these items for consideration and/or review. 

Have you ever picked something up on a whim (or to hit that free shipping $ amount) and end up totally loving what you got? I did that with this Sephora Ultra Vinyl Lip Pencil in 02 Fancy Red a few months back.

I obviously love red lipstick, so I tend to gravitate toward them when I shop. I guess this explains why I have over 30 red lipsticks right now. I love to try out new brands and formulas and see what works best. Here is my current collection with a mini review of each along with my favorites of the bunch.

• MAC - Marilyn Monroe Collection in Deeply Adored (Matte) - I haven't used this one yet. I'm not 100% sure I'll keep it since it looks darker than my normal reds.
• MAC - Racy (Frost) - Not digging the frost so much on this one.
• MAC - Adore It (Glaze) - LOVE this. It's a bright pinky red. It's not super opaque, which makes it a perfect easy lipstick to take with if you aren't going to be able to apply using a mirror.
• MAC - MAC Red (Satin) - LOVE this too. It's a really perfect true red. It is pretty long lasting and has a nice balance of matte/shine.
• MAC - Lady Bug (Luster) - I was really excited to get this since I had heard it was a great red from MAC, but eh. I think because I already had Adore It to fill my easy red lip look, I didn't need this one. Don't get me wrong though, it's pretty and is a nice medium opacity red lipstick.
• MAC - Ruby Woo (Matte) - I heard so much about this lipstick and when I started getting into reds, I had to pick it up. It is a perfect matte red. I generally only like a super matte lip in the winter, which is odd since that's when I'm most dry, but I actually don't find Ruby Woo to be so drying. But it looks dry, so you sort of have to offset the matte by not having your face makeup be so matte.
• MAC - Marilyn Monroe Collection in Charmed I'm Sure (Matte) - I haven't used this one either. It's too pretty to use or something!

• Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Pur Couture in Rouge Roxane - This leans orange and has a bit of frostiness to it, but it isn't too much and it comes off a little younger than a lot of frosty lips.
• Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Pur Couture Vernis à Lèvres Glossy Stain in #9 - Super beautiful warm red with no shimmer. Plus, I love these glossy stains.
• Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Pur Couture Vernis à Lèvres Glossy Stain in #11 - This is a really pinky red. Looks great layered up to a deep pinky red.
• Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Pur Couture Vernis à Lèvres Glossy Stain in #20 - This was a Sephora exclusive color and I'm glad I picked it up. It's similar to #9, but this has a really nice gold shimmer in it. 
• Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Volupté in Red Muse - I can't get over how much I love this lipstick. It feels like silk going on and has a great color payoff.
