I own both MAC Teal and UD Flipside. I think Teal pigment is universally flattering (I am amazed at how stunning it is) and Flipside is better for lighter complexions. I tend to use Flipside as an inner corner shade or to layer colors. It’s very cool toned!

It’s such a shame that they changed the OLD Teal formulation & color… :/ now I think Teal is much more an anonimous green with a hint of blue and it’s nothing in comparison with the older one.
Luckily I still have a full, full size of that!

Hmmm…whenever I use flipside it always seems to come off a little sheer, even when used wet I feel that I can see the colour of my skin peeping out from underneath, and I have three…all with the same results.
One from the Foreshadow palette, UD BOS II palette and the sustainable palette :/

I don’t own any of those but I do like MAC’s Birds & Berries (teal-ish) and UD’s Haight from the BOS III. I just have a hard time getting up the nerve to wear them out of the house!

Sugarpill’s Darling is the Teal I have been searching for all my life. It’s sooooo incredibly beautiful. I also love MAC’s Steamy.
