Dupe for Scanty

[miss_supra]

I know Scanty has been d/ced...but I am in love with this color. What are the closest dups to it? (does not have to be MAC)

Re: Dup for Scanty

*bump* I've been trying to find a dupe for this too. I don't have it so it's hard for me to find a dupe, and all the pictures I've seen (swatches, pics of the lipstick itself, fotds) have such varied lighting that it looks different in nearly every pic. Sometimes it appears really cool toned, and others it looks a teeensy bit warmer. I posted a swatch request, hopefully I'll be able to find a twin if a good photo comes about

Re: Dup for Scanty

I did a live chat today and was not to excited about the recommendations because they aren't as pink as I was expecting.

Re: Dup for Scanty

Thanks for doing a live chat! Glam8Babe did the same and they rec'd the same shades too in this thread. Someone posted a pic there too comparing Snob to Scanty and they look very different.

So frustrating! Ebay is looking better and better...*sigh*

I agree T_T But they are going for $20+, and I don't trust ebay.

Check out Sue Devitt Verbier lipstick, it's a rosey pink-mauve color, and seems to come close to Scanty.

Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

I don't know if there is already a thread about this? I have been after Scanty l/s for a while now, does anyone know of a good dupe from the perm line? Thanks!

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

Me too! I tried doing a swatch request but couldn't get one done

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

The closest I have ever come across was Snob. Angel is too light. This is the most recommended one too.

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

why isn't Lovelorn close? just curious!

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

I don't have loverlorn in my collection, but its quite a bit pinker than scanty.

I wish I had Faux and Viva Glam II to show you other possible dupes.

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

I emailed mac about this and I got the following email..

The “Scanty” lipstick was discontinued in July 2006. We no longer
hold any stock of this item. Once a product has been discontinued it
is unlikely we will re-launch the same shade again. The closest shade
alternative to “Scanty” in our current standard Lipstick range is
“Pink Plaid” Matte Lipstick used with Lip Conditioner.

Re: Scanty Lipstick Dupe?

i think pink nouveau is very similar but a bit too bright, snob has the right kind of undertone! Just release bloody scanty again mac if you are reading!!
