L to R: MAC Everhip, Australis Honky Tonk |
While organising my lippies, I noticed that one of my budget Australian lipsticks, Honky Tonk by Australis, is almost an exact dupe for it! See for yourself.
Everhip is slightly darker than Honky Tonk, but the tonal difference is so small that worn on the lips it's difficult to tell them apart. In these pics I have Everhip on the left and Honky Tonk on the right.

Not only are they a really close colour, texture and longevity match, but Honky Tonk is cheaper too!
MAC Everhip - $36AUD
Australis Honky Tonk - $12.95AUD
The only thing that MAC has going for it is that it's got that yummy vanilla smell, whereas the Australis one has a bit of an old lipstick smell (although this might just be me, as I seem to have a pregnancy-super-nose right now and can smell things others can't!).
So if any of my Aussie readers missed out on Everhip but are still lemming after the shade, get yourself to Priceline or wherever Australis is sold and pick one up.
Do you know of any other great dupes for MAC lipsticks?
They're really similar! xxx
ReplyDeleteWow great dupe, I love seeing things so similar to pricey MAC products :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty on you too.
Thank you for the post, I love the look of Everhip but have missed it the last two times it was released. :( YAY for Honky Tonk!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely yay for Honky Tonk! Cheap, and most importantly not limited edition so you can get it anytime!
DeleteI HAVE to check Honky Tonk out now! I've seen so many pictures of Everhip and it's so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Sooo pretty! I've been looking to buy this lipstick since I saw it on your blog! Such a pretty colour :)
ReplyDeleteI can't even tell the difference, thanks for this post. You're going to save me a lot of money. x
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! They are uncanny! Thanks for the post! xx
ReplyDeletegreat post !
ReplyDeleteExact dupe!!
ReplyDeleteGreat shade! I missed the boat on Ever Hip so I'd be happy to have the Australis version.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Jealous! I missed the boat on Ever Hip and i've yet to find a suitable US dupe.
ReplyDeleteAustralis really is fantastic! And unbelievably cheap! I loved Honky Tonk so much, I bought Ballet and Charleston and three or four others too.
ReplyDeleteI love local brands doing great products, and Australis has really stepped up their game since I first started buying them in high school!
DeleteI have both and never thought they were dupes. Awesome post Lilit. Everhip is one of my all time fav lippies.
ReplyDeleteYou need to compare them side by side, they're soooo close to each other it's not funny.
Deletethat's so cool they are identical! xx
