Makeup Geek x Manny MUA Dupe?!

Unless you have been living under a rock, then you're bound to have seen, drooled over, dreamt about and everything in between the eyeshadow palette collaboration between Makeup Geek and MannyMUA. No one can blame you, it's absolutely gorgerous and a must have for AW 16. Unfortunately, the price tag that comes with the palette is pretty hefty for the nine shades, along with some shades being specifically made for this palette only. 

Beauty Bay | £54

Now after seeing this palette and not having a spare £54 to buy it, I decided to try and dupe it. I researched for ages and haven't seen many suitable dupes/cheaper options or products which are easy to get your hands on. Where possible I have also tried to give a couple of options so everyone can pick up whichever is easiest for them.

*While making this post Beauty Bay have increased Makeup Geek shade to £5.50 - £8.50 so therefore not all options in this palette would make a cheaper dupe. However, I decided to still write the post anyway in case there are specific shades from the palette that you would just like to get - especially the limited edition shades. 

**I don't actually own the Makeup Geek x MannyMUA palette - the dupes are just determined from lots of online research and swatch comparisons. 

• Artemis - Cream iridescent (Shimmer)
• Beaches & Cream - Peach/nude (Matte)
• Luna - Brown with hues of Bronze (Shimmer)
• Frappe - Mocha w/ Cream undertones (Matte)
• Sora - Dark Beige w/ Chocolate undertones (Shimmer)
• Cosmopolitan - Copper w/ Mocha undertones (Foiled)
• Aphrodite - Dark Brown w/ Plum undertones (Matte)
• Mars - Red Velvet (Matte)
• Insomnia - Dark Coffee hues of Forest Green (Shimmer)

By far, Mars was the hardest shade to dupe in this palette, but this definitely has to be one the most unique colours and a HUGE selling point of the palette. 

I had so much fun duping this palette! If you know of any other dupes please leave it in the comments to help others out.
