HI EVERYONE,
So for a lot people all over the time is closely approaching when many will make a mad dash to Mac Cosmetic counters every where for the 2013 Summer Collection release.
However for those who are on a tighter budget that may not be the case and so for some it ultimately means having to do some research for a comparable product that will meet the demand of the hottest shades for the season.
So as I myself had been contemplating taking the dive and going to purchase a couple of pieces from this collection it dawned on me! Why would I drop $52 Cad for a eye shadow quad when I know I have seen these colours before. So after reading up on the Mac quad and looking at others swatch photo's online it occurred to me. I dashed to my makeup drawer and after doing some swatches myself here we have it my dupes for Mac's "Bare My Soul" quad.
So obviously its not exact but the differences are quite miner from the Mac quad. For a very good comparison you can head on over to Vampy Varnish to see the swatch photo's for the "Bare My Soul" quad I am referring to.

So the palette I am showing here is actually a very simple WET N WILD palette called COMFORT ZONE that I purchased a couple of months back at my local Walmart for $4.69 WOW huge price cut from MAC's $52. You may still find the Wet N Wild palette at certain locations and it is still available at the Wet N Wild website http://wnwbeauty.com/product.phpcid=15&pid=912&subid=25
I wanted to add I just wore some of these colours today. If you use the NYX jumbo eye pencil in MILK which is only $5.99 as a primer on your eye it works amazing. The colour payoff of all your eye shadows will be 10x better using this method. Think of it as putting Gesso on a raw canvas to prepare it before painting, It works wonders. Also these Wet N Wild palettes are truly awesome for the price and the color payoff is top notch. This shadow did not budge at all today and I wore it from 7:30 a.m. till 7p.m.
So before you jump the gun and drop at boat load on this Mac quad seriously consider cheaper options, your wallet will thank you.
With how much you'll have saved you can purchase some other goodies like a bright colored cross body bag from Danier for around the same price or a new pair of shoes. Also you can add it to your fund for your next big cosmetic shopping spree.
You can look good for less I promise.
STAY BEAUTIFUL
