When I got to IMATS on Sunday, I found out that the MAKE UP FOR EVER counter is sold out of the famous #92 eyeshadow. Bummer! But look what I got instead:

Auraline Mineral Eyeshadow Luxury Pan in Bright Violet, $3

Side by side comparison: MUFE 92 and Auraline Bright Violet

Comparisons

• Colour. Judging by the swatches, Auraline Bright Violet has a little bit more blue in it compared to MUFE 92. So not an exact dupe, but this is as close as it gets.
• Texture. Both are very smooth, with the same matte finish.
• Pigmentation. MUFE 92 is more pigmented, only swiped 2x using my finger, while the Auraline Bright Violet took about 3x. But, 3x the swipes is still pretty incredible for a $3 pan of eyeshadow.

So?

What do you mean, so? This eyeshadow rocks! I’m pretty impressed with it, looking at how it faired against the famous purple of MAKE UP FOR EVER. Rating: A+++++
