MAC Shy Girl Lipstick Dupe – Glam Radar
by Jane · March 16, 2015
MAC Shy Girl ($14.50) is a peachy warm nude that can easily transition from a day lip to an evening lip. Unlike other cremesheen formulas, this is more on the sheer, glossy side and needs additional prepping. For fairer skin, this looks more peach; for medium skin, this looks more like a natural warm lip; for darker skin, this looks like a nude. Shy Girl is very color dupe-able however. I found 2 low-end alternatives and 1 dupe.

2) Revlon Super Lustrous l/s in Demure ($6) – on the arm, the colors are almost identical; on the lips, however, Demure has a slightly more coral tint than Shy Girl. It’s also more sheer so you need to build up the color.
3) Rimmel Lasting Finish l/s in Crush ($5) – This is more pigmented, orange, and frosty than Shy Girl.
4) NYX Round l/s in Pumpkin Pie ($4) – This is slightly pinker than Shy Girl but it’s the closest dupe — you can’t even tell the difference on the lips! It’s just as pigmented as Shy Girl but is creamier so fades quicker.
