Those are amazing dupes! At least there are similar colors around if Moth never comes back xx
ReplyDeleteThanks!! Agreed, but you know MAC-- they always repromote-- so my guess is that Moth Brown isn't being seen for the last time!
DeleteAll those shades are lovely - Moth Brown is a great colour for the autumn. Bring on the dark nights so I can wear lovely winter shades.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree, Vicki! I love wearing shades like these!! :D
DeleteGreat colors, and perfect for fall and winter.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you, ChannelHMC! Of course I am so happy about these colors that I am not waiting for the weather to cool down to wear them! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteMoth brown is very pretty!! It looks like the MAc ones have better quality.
ReplyDeleteMy BLOG: Keep calm and carry on
I'm following you now, would you mind checking my blog out and follow back if you like?
Thanks!!
Hi Marga- Moth Brown is gorgeous! I I wouldn't say that MAC eye shadows are better quality than NARS though. I will definitely check out your blog! Have a lovely weekend! ;)
DeleteHmmm... I don't know about Moth Brown but you might have convinced me to get Shale instead. :)
ReplyDeleteShale is definitely an awesome eye shadow!! :)
DeleteLove these shadows! I'll have to try it!

Hi Jayndee! They really are lovely shadows! I will definitely go check out your blog! Have a great day!
DeleteWow -- Shale and Lhasa are identical, except for the finish!
ReplyDeleteIn person Shale is more purple than Lhasa-- at least to my eyes!
DeleteWhich one would you say is more pleasant to use (blending, application, wear time): Shale or Lhasa? I think I might check out Shale (because of the lower price point). It might be an affordable alternative to RBR Delicate Hummingbird, provided it doesn't make me look like I was punched in the eye. :)
Deleteps You're right -- Shale does look more purple in your swatches. I had assumed Lhasa had more of a sheen, causing it to appear more grey in the photo.
DeleteNormally I would say NARS has smoother shadows across the board, but Shale is really a very pleasant shadow. So if you prefer the color to Lhasa- then I would say buy the MAC pro pan and save even more money. Ideally it would be great if you could swatch them side by side for the color comparison to see which one you prefer-- and then put it on your fiance's list of things to get you for Christmas :-)
DeleteShale definitely isn't such a pronounced purple like Delicate Hummingbird, but Shale is definitely a winner in my book. I would definitely swatch it forst though-- because some people have complained that it made them look bruised-- thankfully I am not one of them though.
Lhasa has some sheen, and it does pull as a browner taupe grey. It's a funny chameleon like color though-- it tends to look pretty different on everyone. I really recommend trying them side by side. <3
