Oops I did it again: Dupe for NARS blush


24 comments
Well well well, a few months ago, if you remember, I bought NARS Gilda only to take it home and realise I owned it already under the name of MAC Melba.

I'm afraid it's happened again. Before Christmas, after months of pondering, I bought NARS Douceur blush. Then in a pay day 'splurge', I bought this Boots 17 blush in Nude.





 Yes, they're exactly the same in the pan!

 Oh and yes they're exactly the same swatched! Play a quick game of trying to guess which is which?



The swatch on the left is 17 Nude, the right is NARS Douceur. I hope you can see that the 17 blush is more pigmented than the NARS blush. It is also easier to blend. 

Obviously when faced with 2 blushers which look exactly the same, price is going to clinch the deal. 

                      NARS blush: £21  vs Boots 17 blush: £3.49

Point made?

  5. Brilliant - really like the tone of the 17 blush and at that price you can't go wrong. I'm a bit of a 17 fan anyway! x

  10. Damn, we need some 17 around here. I swatched my neutral blushes and it killed my Douceur lemming right away though. We need to stash hunt all the time!
