So i was thinking of starting a new series on this blog. I'm thinking of testing out some of the supposed dupes for higher priced make up and seeing if they are in face a dupe of just how similar they really are. Not only in colour but also by texture and so on.
I've decided to start with my favourite MAC Lipstick. My all time favourite Mac Lipstick is MAC Brave. This is the one lipstick I have bought over and over again. Its a satin finish and is described as a pink beige shade. The Rimmel the Only 1 lipstick in Naughty Nude is very similar to it. I wouldn't say it's and exact dupe but its very, very close.
I would say the Rimmel one is a shade more beige then the MAC. Also it has a slightly glossier finish where the MAC one is a satin. They both have the same undertones and look very alike on the lips. The Mac one has the characteristic MAC vanilla scent where the Rimmel one to me has more of a cucumber scent. I find that the MAC one is more creamy on the lips and lasts a good few hours. The Rimmel one feels much glossier on the lips and has a little bit more slip, and I don't find it lasts that long on the lips.
Overall I think they are very similar to one another but I wouldn't say they are an exact dupe.
If you want to see more in this series please let me know. Also if there are any dupes that you have heard of and would like me to test out, leave me a comment below and I'll look into it!
