We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I think I’d certainly pick Grace out of those. It’s undertone is ever so slightly cooler!
Grace is a lovely shade!
I like how none of the dupes are quiiiiiite the same 🙂 Just goes to show how versatile hot coral can be! 😀 I think the only shades I own that are even in this general colour family are Givenchy Hibiscus Exclusif, and Revlon Unapologetic… (it’s not an *easy* colour for me, LOL!)
I think it’s the finish that sets Toxic Tale apart from a lot of dupes!
Also Nyx Femme lipstick is close to Mac Toxic Tale.
Grace looks beautiful
Estee Launder Defiant Coral is looks close.. but I loved NARS grace more.. 🙂
I HAVE to have Toxic Tale! But Defiant Coral actually looks like a great alternative, so I’ll keep it in mind for if for some reason I can’t get my hands on the real deal.
Hi Christine! I find that MUFE Artist #39 is close to toxic tale!!
I think Mac Toying Around looks remarkably similar. Theres only the tiniest bit of difference bc of the finish. I have both and now don’t know if I should KEEP both!
