Dupe!

If you've read my recent post then you'll know that I purchased 3 MUA lipsticks today. I just wanted to inform you all that I think MUA lipsticks could be potential dupes for MAC lipsticks. Whilst swatching my MUA lipsticks I noticed two things; one, they have a sweet fragrance just like MAC lipsticks and two, the colours of the lipsticks are similar to MAC lipsticks. I'm not saying that MUA are 100% dupes as MAC are probably better, in terms of longevity and also colour intensity but if there's a particular MAC lipstick you want then it's worth checking out MUA first, there's no point in spending £13.50 when you can just spend £1.00.

Here's the comparison photograph...

Top Row: MAC: From left to right; 'Viva Glam Gaga', 'Lady Danger', 'Midimauve'

Bottom Row: MUA: From left to right; 'Shade 4', 'Shade 13', 'Shade 11'

I honestly couldn't believe that there was such little difference between the two brands. The are both exceptional brands and I would recommend buying lipsticks from any of them but if there's no difference  between the two then you may as well go for the cheaper option.

The only thing I will say is that MUA do not offer a wide range of lipsticks unlike MAC which is a shame. 

Hope you like this dupe post! The dupe for 'Midimauve' looks better in the flesh than it does on camera too!
