MAC Bouffant Eyeshadow
MAC Bouffant Eyeshadow

MAC Bouffant Eyeshadow ($16.00 for 0.05 oz.) is described as a “pale peach shimmer [with a Veluxe Pearl finish].” It’s a light, pinky-peach with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a fairly soft, smooth consistency that was blendable and buildable in color. It wore well for eight hours before creasing on me. I expected this to have some dupes, but it was surprisingly dupable. Guerlain Les Precieux #2 (LE) is lighter. Tarte Champagne Bubble Bath (LE) is similar. Hello Kitty Apple Pie (LE) is darker. Stila Rose Quartz (P) is similar. Make Up For Ever I524 Pinky Beige (P, $21.00) is less shimmery. Chanel Tisse Venitien #2 (P) is similar. Chanel Tisse Camelia #3 (P) is similar. theBalm #14 (P, $6.50) is similar. theBalm #4 (P, $6.50) is similar. theBalm D2 (LE, $16.00) MAC Summer Honey (LE, $21.00) is more glittery. MAC Jest (P, $15.00) is warmer. Urban Decay Sin (P, $18.00) is similar. MAC Naked Lunch (P, $15.00) is less shimmery. MAC A Natural Flirt (LE, $19.50) is lighter. Le Metier de Beaute Nouvelle (LE, $30.00) is similar. bareMinerals Custom Made (LE) is more shimmery. Inglot #397 (P, $6.00) is more shimmery. Get comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

MAC Yogurt Eyeshadow ($16.00 for 0.05 oz.) is described as a “chalky pale pink [with a Matte finish].” It’s a light, neutral-to-cool-toned pink with a matte finish. The texture was firm and thin, which made it harder to get color off of the surface. It lasted for seven hours before fading. This shade is part of the permanent range. Lancome My French #2 (LE) is much darker. Make Up For Ever M870 Yogurt (P, $21.00) is cooler-toned. MAC The Wrong Man (LE, $15.00) is darker. MAC Elementary Pink (LE, $15.00) is lighter. Too Faced Powdered Sugar (LE, $16.00) is lighter. Urban Decay Fray (LE, $18.00) is darker. Get comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

There are two other new, limited edition shades in this collection, which I don’t have, but I’ll certainly try to snag them when the collection launches online on March 26th!

Christine you called both shadows bouffant in the beginning. Also do you know if yogurt in the core collection has a better formula than the version released with this collection. (Like carbon does)

Love it when I’m right, but hate it when I’m right about makeup! As soon as I saw Yoghurt in the press release thingymabobby shabadu, the gut feeling was chalky and hard. Last MAC collection that I actually bought from was Venomous Villians, they’ve been so lacklustre and uninspired.

I am liking Bouffant. But, I may prefer the MUFE dupe. It doesn’t appear quite as peachy. But, I would probably use it more. I wish yogurt had performed better. Well, my wallet does not. But , now I know of another 2 MUFE artist shadows that I want! 🙂

Yeah agreed, I just crossed Bouffant off. I did the math and it comes out costing more than a MUFE artist shadow! I was re-looking at the swatches last night and noticed a comment that said “Baby you are a ROCK STAR!” lol..I am totally in agreement with that! I also was looking at the Rouge G swatches and noticed some girl knocking you in 2009 I believe, saying the blog was going down hill and you were in grad school and doing this! OMG, I wanted to jump back in time and punch her.
You are a rock star and you have not aged at all either..just fyi. You are doing an amazing job. Just do your best.

MAC Yogurt has a dupe, in my opinion, it is Maybelline Color Tattoo in Nude Pink.
I have found a couple of other dupes as well, not related to these colors.
Loreal Infallible eyeshadow in Amber Rush; dupe MAC Mythology
NYX single eyeshadow LOL; dupe MAC single eyeshadow pot in Brick Red
NYX single eyeshadow Heat Chaleur; dupe MAC Cranberry
NYX single eyeshadow Stiletto Talon Aiguille; dupe Maybelline Color Tattoo Nude Pink; dupe MAC single eyeshadow Yogurt
NYX single eyeshadow Sex Kitten (more pink) & NYX single eyeshadow Pixie Lutin ( more brown-champagne-ish); dupe for MAC single eyeshadow Bouffant.
