By now I've amassed a bunch of these Tarte LipSurgence lip pencils, and so here are a bunch of comparison swatches for all the colors I currently have. I've passed on many to family and friends, and at the time of writing, I've passed on a few more and kept only those I actually reach for.
Anyway, enjoy the photos! I did my best to group them first by line: Lip Cremes, Lip Lusters, Lip Stains, and Lip Tints (so many!), then alphabetically by color name (with few exceptions below where I goofed), and finally by in color families as best I could. I'd have to say the Lip Tints are my favorites because they're shimmer-free and translucent, if not transparent, then the Lip Cremes because they're mostly shimmer-free but are inconsistent in translucency. The Lip Lusters are pretty, but as translucent as they are they're also loaded with shimmers.
All pictures taken in natural light without flash. Clickable = zoomable.

Love looking at so many chubby pencils lined up together. I need to pay attention to future sets coming out!
Hey Mina,
You know what's interesting? I've bought only a few sets so far and have kept only a couple of colors from all those sets, the rest I've passed on to family and friends. Which is to say the sets sometimes differ greatly from the original line in terms of texture and finish, so now I only buy individual colors.
Cheers,
D.
