From Left to Right , the 10 shades are Nude Truffle, Crimson, Spring Lilac, Brown Sugar, Ruby,  Playful Rose, Candy Red     Berry Sangria, Peony Blush, Cherry Blossom I fall between  NC 42-45 skin tone and most of the shades suit me but my most favourite shade is Spring Lilac, Ruby and Brown Sugar. Currently on the introductory offer price of 499 in this month of December 2017. Next month it would retail for 719 INR
