The Ricky and Nicki lipstick is not as cool-tone compared to the previous release. This is a deeper and warmer pink, which I think will be flattering on most skin tones. It has great pigmentation as well. The lip conditioner is clear and has no color.
In terms of the Tendertones Lip Balms ($15USD), Purring and Hot N Saucy both do not have any shimmers. I used a brush to do the swatches to build up as much color as I can. They are quite sticky and has a strong sweet fragrance. Hush Hush and Tread Gently both have gold shimmers. I think these are better as lipstick toppers. They are not as opaque compared to Purring or Hot N Saucy.
Overall, both Ricky & Nicki and MAC Tendertone Lip Balms are pretty but not necessarily must-haves for me.
What's on your list from both of these collections?

really like the ricki and nicky lip color. very pretty.
I keep looking at Nicki and trying to decide if I can pull it off. It is such a fun color.
Thank you so much for the swatches~ The nicki lipstick is lovely~
Girlie Blogger - yes, it's pretty indeed!
Leticia - I think you can pull it off. It is not too cool or warm tone and can be sheered for a lighter pink!
Eden-Avalon - np! Are you picking it up?
