MAC HUE DUPE

Excuse the mess of the lipstick, it's kind of broke!


Natural Collection Sheer Natural Lipstick in Lotus, Mac Glaze Lipstick in Hue

I was sat at my desk the other day, swatching all my lipsticks when I made this new discovery. Coincidently, I swatched these two next to each other and realised how similar they are, so I thought I would blog about it. I'm not a huge fan of Hue anymore as it's totally not my colour, but I know a lot of people do. Some people love the shade, but not the price tag. Natural Collection lipsticks are I think £1.99 but they don't seem to be on the Boots website anymore. Swatched next to each other, you can see the similarities. Hue is a shade darker than lotus, but look more similar on your lips. You do have to reapply them both a few times throughout the night. They both feel the same on your lips, quite moisturising.  Over all I think this is a good dupe for a fraction of the price!
