Possible DUPEs?! ELF natural matte lipstick vs Essence soft rose lipliner ..

HELLO GUYS!

I hope you're all okay and enjoying your day. 

I have a comparison post today of two products which can be possible dupes to each other.. 

but are they?? 

I am talking about 

ELF matte lip color in natural

vs

Essence lip liner in soft rose

I initially purchased ELF's matte lip color in natural, loved it. 

Then I found out about Essence, and something that caught my eye was this Essence soft rose lipliner. 

Now this Essence lipliner costs like €1.03

whereas the 

ELF one costs £3.50.

Left to Right: Elf natural, Essence soft rose

Anyway here's what I think. 

They might seem like possible dupes when used seperately, 

HOWEVER

A. the formula is different - ELF's is more creamy

B. packaging - ELF's a twist up lipstick

C. shade - ELF's is more pink

D. pigmentation - ELF's is more pigmented

 so that's about it.

Other than that, they're pretty similar, though.

BOTTOM LINE.

I don't really recommend the Essence lip liner 

- a bit too drying, and the ELF one looks prettier on me.


Thanks for reading guys,
and take care :D
