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’.
Mac Edge To Edge Lip Liner Swatch
Edge to Edge lipliner. Debbie from Anaheim. I love, love, love this sexy color! It also looks really good with MAC clear lip glass. I wear it everyday. All time favorite. Romojax from FL. Ordered online after MAC customer service recommended MAC lipliner in Cherry as the match for Viva Glam Rosalia(VM26)lipstick. MAC describes “Edge to Edge” as a dirty bluepink. It’s matching lipstick is MAC’s “Pink Plaid”, which has already been part of the MAC product line for quite some time. Their shade descriptions are exactly the same, which makes it easy to figure out the other lipliner/lipstick matches. Here are swatches of “Edge to “Edge”.
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.
