Eyeshadow Dupes

Don't you ever wish that there could be a dupe for the products that we most desire in life. Something similar yet more affordable and easier to access. Well unfortunately life doesn't really work that way however in the cosmetics world there is hope. Over the years I been looking into some high end products to see if there are any alternatives to that product. So far here is what I found. Most of these dupes are pretty dead on even though they may not all look like it at first, but I assure you on the eyes you can't tell the difference. Not only you will be happier but so will your wallet.

DISCLAIMER: ALL PRODUCTS ARE MY OWN AND PURCHASED WITH MY OWN MONEY. I'M NOT PRESENTLY AFFILIATED WITH ANY OF THESE COMPANIES MENTIONED.

MAC eyeshadows are probably one the most lusted products however they are also one of the most priciest. While the general masses of people love to purchase MAC products do keep in mind the prices are high because MAC is a makeup artistry company which means its products are usually used on a professional basis like on movie sets, commercials, magazines etc...  Here are some alternatives that are not only cheaper but maybe even a little better.


MAC Eyeshadows retail for $15 in the pot packaging, $11 for their depotted version, or $5-10 for pro card holders. All Wet n Wild Trios retail for $2.99 and a plus side they also do not test on animals.

6.) MAC PaintPot (cream eyeshadow) in Bare Study ($20)- Dupe Maybelline Color Tattoo in Barely Beige ($6-7)

7.) Makeup Forever Aqua Cream Eyeshadow in #15 ($23)- Dupe Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze ($6-7): Not a MAC dupe however Makeup Forever is another very expensive makeup artistry brand.

Right swatch: Color Tattoo
Left swatch: Makeup Forever
The Makeup Forever one is slightly darker here however once you put it on the eye and blend it out it is very similar to the Color Tattoo one. 

You can purchase all the products mentioned above down below at the sites. Wet n Wild is also available in all drugstores nationwide.  

Hope y'all enjoyed this post I will be posting more dupes to high end/makeup artistry brands later on. :D xoxo
