MAC Reel Sexy Lipstick - Limited Edition
I love my MAC Reel Sexy lipstick, it's absolutely beautiful and I find myself reaching for it every day. You can see my post here on the lipstick, it's a lovely bright coral pink. I got my hands on this over a month or two ago, it has since sold out and is a limited edition shade so I have been careful not to use it too much. I know the chances of getting this again are slim!
Whilst rummaging through my ever growing lipstick collection, I found this little gem which had long since been forgotten, Sleeks Peaches and Cream lipstick. It's a lovely pigmented coral shade that applies so smooth, has a great sheen and is really pigmented.
I have been using this far more than Reel Sexy as it's cheap (£4) and I find them so similar on my lips, although I might even prefer the formula of the Sleek lipstick!
Now, it's not an identical dupe - Reel Sexy is slightly more pink but I think the colour of my lips shows through with Peaches and Cream and makes them look so similar on me.
I'm not usually one for dupes but I actually adore both these lipsticks and Peaches and Cream is the perfect shade for me (not to mention it makes a good replacement for Reel Sexy, meaning I can save it!)
What do you think of Peaches and Cream?
I've been really wanting the Reel Sexy lipstick lately but im definitely going to look for the Sleek one instead(i think i might actually own it already though!)xx
ReplyDeleteI was going to look for a new lipstick today and I think I've found the one I want to buy, winner :D thank you! xo

Looking at them in their tubes I think I prefer the Sleek lipstick, I'm phasing out of coral colours (which the MAC lipstick appears to be) and going into peachy colours. They're similar, but I'm just loving peach and orange at the moment!

Great little find there! I love both the colours of the lipsticks but would definitely try and love the sleek one more seeing as it's cheaper and much more readily available :)

This colour suits you so much. They look really similar.
ReplyDeleteExcellent find xo
The lipstick looks gorgeous on you! Such a shame reel sexy in limited edition, although peaches and cream does look very similar! x

I haven't branched out into coral lipsticks yet but this looks like a really inexpensive way of trying it out :)

Another great coral lipstick by MAC is Vegas Volt! I'd give that one a try as well. From your photos it looks rather similar but may be a bit orangey-er. ^_^ x

i've wanted the sleek lipstick for ages but the superdrugs near me are such a mess and most of the sleek counter never gets restocked :/ xx

Love the colour, bang on trend and super pretty/feminine, not too harsh of a colour either.

I really wish they sold Sleek here because they've got some amazing products- I really want some of their blushes, especially the Lace blush palette! This lipstick looks lovely, I'm not one for dupes but this lipstick is really lovely :)
