MAC Lipstick in Up The Amp (£15 right swatch) and Collection Little Mix Lipstick in Perrie (£2.99 left swatch from Boots and Superdrug).
I recently treated myself to a new MAC lipstick in Up The Amp, brought on by my current obsession with all things purple. So imagine my surprise (and mild annoyance) when I stumbled upon this Collection Little Mix Lipstick which is a total bargain dupe!!
Up The Amp is an Amplified lipstick from MAC, I'm not particularly well up on the various formulas but this gives a flawless opaque colour to the lips. Both shades are a beautiful berry mid purple, I guess you would call it a plum shade. I love the classic MAC lipstick packaging and I love the smell of MAC lipsticks- I can't be the only one surely?!
The Collection dupe is from the Little Mix collection, I've always like Perrie's style and makeup and this colour lipstick totally suits her look. I actually like the packaging of the Collection lipstick, normally in find cheaper brands packaging to be a bit tacky looking or flimsy but I don't mind this one. I think it's identical to Up The Amp in colour and finish to be perfectly honest! I would say that it doesn't last half as well on the lips as the MAC lipstick but you don't mind reapplying a lipstick that's a fifth of the price! Both the products are really creamy and moisturising on the lips but again, I find that the moisture lasts a longer from the MAC formula but reapplying the Collection lippy does the trick.
All in all, I'd definitely recommend this as a dupe- let me know what you think! Thanks for stopping by x
