What are the names of the Chinaglaze shades that are dupes of the Style Black nail polishes?

Thank U!!!~

To tell you the truth, the reason why I didn't buy the MES from this collection is because they looked like nothing more than reflects glitter with a nice black base to me. If you get apply mixing medium to these two things I am almost certain that the result will be the same.

but it isnt cost effective to me to purchase 2 items plus a mixing medium just for that use....I love the hidden swirls in the mes too. I have Cinderfella & after using it for sometime more sliver swirls are appearing from beneath. Unlike the raved Marine Life....shimmers & sparkles only on surface

Ditto! Before I go dishing out money for a private seller, I'm going to wait until the fall and winter lines get detailed to see if they repromote. I would love to see the colors come back (they sold so well) in addition to some new ones.

As for the "recreation," I've been trying to do so layering gold glitter over black paint pots and Carbon. It does NOT have the same effect. Next I should try black base with some of my Archetype pigment samples to see what I get.

I finally got Gilt By Association!

I love it. Golds and bronzes just work really well with my hazel eyes. What surprised me is that I can wear it bare or over a flesh-colored base for day, then layer it over black or Dirty GPS for night. I was kind of expecting the gold sparkle to be a little more yellow, but it's really an old gold.

The only downside...man that glitter travels to my undereye...

Good news everyone! (<- Farnsworth voice)

No, the Style Black MES aren't coming back, but I did find dupes for Cinderfella and Gilt By Association. Victoria's Secret has two similar shades called Fierce and Gilded Fierce. I saw them at the store today. They're only $10, but you won't get as much product. Dry, they looked nice, but I don't know if they'll get the cool foiled look as the MES. Just wanted to share: Victoria's Secret - Silky Eye Shadow - Sparkle
