If I’m shopping for new eyeshadow I usually wouldn’t even think of stopping at the
Rimmel counter but I’m not entirely sure why… I mean I love their foundations, mascaras and liners but for some reason the eyeshadows just don’t grab me
Well that was till I spotted one of the individual Colour Rush Mono shadows in
Glitzed. I’m not even embarrassed to admit that I got
really excited when I saw this! It looks just like one of my favourite ever shadows – a silver
Too Faced one from a duo called
Ooh and Aah
You can tell how old my duo is as it’s the old chunky square container, whereas the new version comes in a cute little round one. Aaaanyway, I’m just about to hit pan on my gorgeous little
Too Faced duo and wasn’t looking forward to splashing out £14.50 for a new one, so I was delighted when I came across the
Rimmel shadow for the bargain price of £3.99
They dont look identical on my hand but when I've actually applied them to my eyes they look exactly the same. Pretty good value cos I'm essentially getting twice the amount of silver shadow for a 3rd of the price! Maybe not exactly a 3rd (maths isn't my strong point) but it's definitely way cheaper :)

pretty! always love a good dupe :) i don't know how much i like silvery shadows on me though.. they're hard for me to pull off.
nice colours! :)
nothing better than discovering a good dupe for an expensive product you really love!
Cute! I love dupe posts! Silver shadows are also lovely ones to have. Great post! (P.s. I am also loving the 5 skin care from _____ brand posts, I think those are just great. Really informative!)
Lovely colours! Love a good dupe x
wow, thats great, they do look nearly the same, I'm loving Rimmel more and more recently xxx
my sister recently bought a colour rush shadow that looks almost like that, but with more purple undertones. They are gorgeous and pigmented, and buttery smooth :)
Very cool! It's amazing how the quality of drug store makeup is improving so much!
I just did a tag post. You should do it, too http://www.mamalaura.net/2011/02/tag-get-to-know-me.html
I love dupes. Thanks ;0)
Those colours are super pretty. I might take a look at the Rimmel one next time I'm in Boots/Superdrug :) xx
