At least that one though, even though I would also not call it a dupe, was a close match! These lipsticks are just different colours.
The colours are so different that in fact it made me wonder if this is just a marketing play, especially since not long ago the £5 Primark foundation, that posed as an Estèe Lauder dupe, was a sucess. Swatches under studio light Swatches under day light This is clearly not the case here, in fact the colours are very different both under studio and day light (see pictures below). However, no matter what colour the lipsticks actually are on you, when something is labelled “a dupe” the colours should appear almost identical when you swatch them on your hand.
MAC VELVET TEDDY SKIN
Of course the actual colour is relative as it will appear slightly different on your lips, due to our different skin tones and natural lip colour. The Mac Velvet Teddy has a light brown with a violet tone colour whereas the Primark Golden Rose #74 is a darker brown with a red tone to it. Is the Primark Golden Rose lipstick in shade #74 a dupe for the Mac Velvet Teddy lipstick and are the ingredients any good? Should you switch? With a price saving of £14.5 it is no surprise why some would consider switching.
One of the trendy dupes at the moment is a lipstick from Primark which is said to be a dupe for the iconic Mac Velvet Teddy. Additionally, with so many cosmetic brands and products out there, it is almost expected that some might be similar or even the same. It is said that an average woman uses around 16 cosmetics a day (although this number changes from study to study) which can be expensive.Īs a result, finding a dupe (= a product that gives the same results or looks the same but is cheaper) is very interesting for many. Cosmetics can leave a big mark on your purse, both literally and figuratively.
