Seeing as how brown lipsticks are trending right now, I thought I would introduce one of my new favorite lip colors – and compare it to it’s NYX dupe. Most MAC lipliners seem to have a similar color in the NYX line of lipliners, and after doing some research, word on the street is that the NYX liner in ‘Natural’ is a dupe for MAC’s ‘Stripdown’.

Personally, I don’t think these two liners are that close in color. ‘Natural’ is described as a deep-toned beige, while MAC describes ‘Stripdown’ as a creamy brown-beige.

As you’ll see from the above swatch, “Natural” definitely has more warm pink undertones, while ‘Stripdown’ is much more of a browny-beige. Both liners have great pigmentation and a similar creamy texture, making them both easy to apply.

As I’ve said in prior MAC/NYX dupe posts, the biggest difference between them is the price point. MAC lipliners run for $16, while NYX lipliners are only $3.50.

Mac Stripdown Lip Liner Dupe

Have you ever tried either of these lip liners or know of another dupe for MAC’s ‘Stripdown’? Let me know in the comments below! 🙂

I don’t know what it is about MAC lipsticks that cause me to go weak at the knees. Every time I pass a MAC counter, I just can’t pass by without going into a lipstick swatching frenzy whilst making a metal list of what shades I need to add to my collection next (Viva Glam II and Half n Half, I have my eyes on you).

In this video I share with you my current 5 favourite MAC lipsticks – the shades that I get the most wear out of. For those that find swatches useful like myself, I hope this video and the photographs in this post help you out when deciding which shade to pick up next. I’ve included a brief description of each of the shades here but for more information, make sure you check out the video.

Cosmo – Amplified

A warm, mid-tone peachy pink with a sheeny finish. It’s super comfortable to wear, packed with pigment and full opacity is easily achieved with one layer.
Fast Play – Amplified A neutral, mid tone mauvy pink with a satin finish (slightly more deeper than Cosmo). Again, the Amplified finish is super comfortable to wear, has incredible colour payoff and full opacity is achieved with a single layer.
Twig- Satin Very similar to Fast Play although it has less of a sheen due to it’s Satin finish and pulls more of a plummy pink whereas Fast Play pulls more brown by comparison. It’s comfortable to wear with slightly less slip than the Amplified finishes. The shade is pigmented and a full even coverage is achieved with one layer.
Blankety – Amplified A very light, beigy, pink nude with a sheeny finish. Despite how light it is, it still packs a punch in the pigment department and glides on effortlessly. It feels very creamy and nourishing on the lips. As this is rather on the light side, I like to wear it with a darker lip liner especially Mac’s lip liner in Stripdown.
Velvet Teddy – Matte A warm, muted, mid-tone peachy brown with a matte finish. This shade is probably the closest to my natural lip colour out of all the shades which surprises me. Although matte, it’s not dry and applies just as well as the other formulas. It actually has a similar texture to the Satin finish formula with just a tad less shine. It’s not as flat as a matte liquid lipstick. This is your entry level brown.
