Since I am transitioning my collection to one day being completely cruelty free I have been on the hunt for cruelty free dupes for my favourite products. Hopefully this post will help you if you're interested in using cruelty free alternatives too!

MAC Studio Fix Powder ➙ Australis Fresh and Flawless

Having dry/problematic skin makes it tough to find a powder that doesn't look too powdery but still offers a medium-full coverage. Luckily both these powders work virtually the same and the dupe is a lot more affordable! I do find that the MAC powder does give less of a "powdery" finish.

L'Oreal 24H-Matte ➙ Tarte Amazonian Clay

Tarte's Amazonian Clay foundation is a thicker and moussier consistency compared to L'Oreal however they're both matte and offer very full (buildable) coverage.

MAC Fix + ➙ Australis Makeup Finishing Spritz

Both set the powders on your face giving you more of a dewy finish. You can also use both to intensify any shadows.

Urban Decay Naked Palettes ➙ Chi Chi Palettes

Although Urban Decay are cruelty free their parents company is not. I am still on the fence whether I will continue purchasing their products however for a much more affordable and 100% cruelty free option Chi Chi have so many palette's so you will definitely find a match within their range!

Benefit Porefessional ➙ NYX Pore Filler

I have never owned Benefit's Porefessional however I have tried it out on my hand and compared it to my NYX primer. They had a similar feel and filled in the "pores" on my hand the exact same. There are also other blogposts online stating that these two are dupes. Cruelty free or not I highly recommend you try out the NYX primer first as it is much more affordable and works so well.

Stila Liquid Lipstick in Patina ➙ Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip in Clueless

I did an entire blogpost dedicated to comparing these two liquid lips so if you're interested in reading it click here. The two shades are very similar and wear for the same amount of time.

NARS Audacious Lipstick in Anna ➙ Colourpop Lippie Stix in Lumiere

NARS is another brand that is cruelty free however the parent company are not. Ever since the Audacious lipsticks were released I always wanted the shade Anna. One day when I went into Mecca I realised it was so similar to the shade I was wearing - Colourpop's Lumiere.

We all have things we want but don't need. 

I have never written a blogpost about products I really want to try out and own so I thought I would create a list of things I want from either Sephora, Mecca or Myer. If you own any of these products comment below and share your thoughts with me!

Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer

I never used to be into contouring or bronzing but over the past few months I have slowly added it into my routine. For some unknown reason I have always had my eye on this particular product. Every time I enter Mecca I go and sniff it and then I sadly depart from it. One day I will purchase it because the packaging and scent is AMAZING.

Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation

Next up is Tarte's Amazonian Clay Foundation. I don't need a new foundation but that does not stop me from saving this product to my wishlist. I am trying to hurry and use up a few of my current foundations because I desperately want to try this one out.  I love a full coverage foundation and it is cruelty free, you can't get any better than that!

MAC Lipsticks

Like a lot of other people I too want to collect MAC lipsticks. I have an extensive list of lipsticks I want to collect however costing $36 for one I doubt I will ever accumulate this many with my own money. The shades I hope to one day own are: brave, yash, shy girl, hug me, faux, modesty, mehr, kinda sexy, cherish, blankety, japanese maple, twig, creme d'nude, flesh pot and creme cup.

Can you tell I am obsessed with nude/pink shades? Lol. I watch so many MAC lipstick collection videos that I want to own them all!

Urban Decay Naked 3

Last but not least is this Urban Decay palette. I already own Naked 2 and have been obsessed with it ever since I got it. I love all the shades in this palette and its so much more unique to the others by them.
