Dupe: M.A.C. Liquidlast Liner (Aqualine)

Im not a fan of pigments and loose shadows. I love the intensity and colors but I find them a little messy. So last night, I decided to press some pigments. One of which was Jesse's Girl Eye dust in this gorgeous aqua blue color. But when I checked this morning, it was back to its powder form again.



Color comes off wrong in this picture. It really is more of an aqua almost
blue-green rather than blue-purple.



I made some mixing medium just a while ago and tested it on the failed pressed pigment. And I loved how it looked. But it looked familiar. Then I remembered my Liquidlast eyeliner from M.A.C. in Aqualine. So I swatched them next to each other, and theyre very identical! Id say that the pigment from Jesse's Girl was more intense and just a tad bit darker but hardly any difference.

Here are some pictures. Now these are one of those times when I wish I had a better camera. Colors are a bit washed out.

Wow, those are really similar. Have you tried the lasting power?. Are they the same?.. xx

Maui (Suushh) said...

Yeah, thats the only BIG difference. it does not last. I wouldnt suggest you try rubbing your eyes if you had the one from Jesse's Girl on. The liquidlast however, will stay on forever haha.

Jesse's girl with the mixing medium budged when I tried to smear it with my fingers. The MAC Liquidlast liner was still on my hand, after i showered and attempted to scrub it off
