Budget Friendly (Lipstick Dupes)

Even though I am a pro member with M.A.C I still love a good dupe. I mean why spend extra coins when you don't have to? I sit back and watch people buy lipsticks because of the brand or to keep up with others and I personally think that its foolish. Why have the same lipstick color in 3 different brands? That makes no sense... Here are some dupes that I enjoy:

M.A.C KINDA SEXY:  REVLON MAUVE IT OVER
M.A.C GIRL ABOUT TOWN : REVLON FUSCHIA
M.A.C COSTA RICA : REVLON CORALBERRY also a dupe for VEGAS VOLT
M.A.C CREME D NUDE : ELF NATURAL NYMPH and REVLON NUDE ATTITUDE
M.A.C REBEL : MILANI COLORSTATEMENT IN SANGRIA also a dupe  WET N WILD SUGAR PLUM FAIRY
M.A.C VIVA GLAM V : RIMMEL MOISTURE REWNEW IN SUNSET
M.A.C CRAVING : MAYBELLINE BIT OF BERRY
M.A.C YOUNG RAPUNZEL- RIMMEL LONDON KATE MOSS IN 04
M.A.C SHOW ORCHID : NYC BLUE ROSE
M.A.C SMOKE PURPLE : WET N WILD 919B
M.A.C CYBER : RIMMEL LONDON  KATE MOSS 04
M.A.C RUBY WOO : WET N WILD STOPLIGHT RED
M..A.C MORANGE : MILANI MANDARINA
M.A.C VIVA GLAM NICKI : WET N WILD PINKERBELL

These are just a few to help you out. Times is tough and I believe in saving money. Stop making companies rich when you are broke. I used to be a makeup hoarder. I have over thousand of dollars of makeup and dupes for so many things. If I can stop someone from making that same mistake then I will. Now, that's not to say I wont be purchasing makeup. I just will be thinking twice about what I do purchse. If you have any dupes please share in the comments below.

  1. Love this list! After I saw that my mac lipsticks were getting old I backed to mac them to get limited edition colors like Herione, Ablaze, Heaux, etc. But I searched high and low for dupes to my other ones because I was not repurchasing. Little by little they keep increasing the prices and I'm not having that lol. I'm so happy I switched over and have mostly dupes in my lipstick collection now.

  2. Also a dupe for the new "Talk that Talk" is Milani's "Black Cherry". It's not matte, but the color is identical.

  3. Thank you for that comment. I'm just tired of ladies breaking the bank when you can save. I like that Milani Black Cherry too :)

  4. Sometimes I buy in different brands because I try the less expensive version and I don't like the texture or smell. I have a few on your lists. Some I prefer the MAC version. Others are equal in quality. I purchased several Wet N Wild lipsticks to try but I don't love them. I also have Girl about Town and the Revlon one. I love Revlon. I have about 30. Its cool to find a dupe, but I do not seek them out because it will cost me more money.

    As far as dupes I have some that are similar: Mac Violetta and NYX Round in Pandora. Also Milani Violet Volt and Jordana Fiesta. Jordana is the lil sis of Milani. They have similar smells and feel so you can probably find more dupes or simlar colors.
