I heard if u mix Snob l/s with Magenta Madness pigment u can create CYY or a resonable dupe... I never tried this because I got the last tube available in New England when it came out originally :) I suppose Saint Germain, All Styled Up, or VG Gaga1 could work too... Worth a try right!?!?

Or just buy Barry M 52 for an exact dupe

Here are swatches of MAC Magenta on top NYX Purple Rain on bottom:
Not sure if it really shows clearly enough in the pic but Purple Rain is more purple and almost looks like it has a little bit or iridescence to it.

PHOTOSHOP!

But girl...I hear ya! I would die for a lipstick that looks like a true neon :)
I have seen that picture probably 50 times (u guys have no idea how much time I've spent in searching neon pink lipstick, lol) I've always thought it was the barry m.

swatches vs reality. I'm one of those firm believers in the fact that finishes make the BIGGEST difference. I do think heroine and violetta are VERY different. I would not wear violetta, but I have no problem rocking heroine.
Maybe I don't think they're too different because they're both purple? But as you said, they're different finishes and I love the matte finish on Heroine.

However, it doesn't look like I can get my hands on Heroine unless I decide to really splurge and pay $40 on Ebay (Never ...) so unless something comes around, I have to be satisfied with Violetta. It's purple so with a little tweaking, I'm sure I can get it to my EXACT liking.
