Revlon Satin Eyeshadow Nude Slip vs. MAC All That Glitters Eyeshadow!

Hello Cupcakes!!

I was browsing through my makeup as I often do and I came across two shades of eyeshadow that I thought might be similar if not dupes of each other. Now that I am unemployed, hopeless, and broke the only thing that seems to perk me up is makeup dupes! I love me some cheap makeup...it makes me feel like I got a deal and thus really laying to the man!! Actually non makeup talk, I am looking forward to two job interviews this weeks for a waitress position. Granted it isn't a dream job or anything but it will put money in my pockets and give me purpose instead of just wasting my life away. Anywho...

MAC's All That Glitters eyeshadow is very well known and extremely well loved. I am certain that I bought it more because it was famous but I do love the color. It is a great multi task shade that can be used as a highlight or all over the lid color. My only qualm about this eyeshadow is that it is a bit too pink as an all over lid color for me. Ok, let me explain. I love it all over the lid if I want a pinkish frosty shimmery color but often times I want it to look a bit more like my skin tone for a natural look. This is where Revlon Nude Slip comes in. I purchased this shade from Target for about $4.00 and I'm not going to lie, I swatched it in the store. Yes that is right, I opened the packaging and swiped my finger across the top to get a better feeling of the color. At first glance I thought that it would be very frosty and light but when I swiped it on my skin I realized that it was the color that I had been looking for. These two shadows are extremely similar in color except that Nude Slip has more of a beige undertone, which does a great job in blending in better for a natural look, and All That Glitters has more of a pink undertone. 
Side by side the colors are almost perfect dupes but once swatched you can see the subtle difference. I do prefer Nude Slip over All that Glitters but that is just my preference. I will say that if you don't want to pay $14.50 for the MAC version then Nude Slip is a great substitution. Nude Slip also feels much softer, almost like an Urban Decay shadow, very buttery and nice. Take a look!
