Could you help me find lookalikes (pref MAC) for:

Rose
Golden Olive
Coco
Tan
Gold
Naked
Pink Bronze
Turquoise
Landscape Green
Marine Ultra
Dusty Coral
Copper Sparkle

Melon

I know it's a long list, but any help is appreciated!
TIA

Nothing can compare to pink pearl honestly...Imho

I find chartreuse to be similar to lucky green.
Platinum there is really no comparison but the closest I would say is fineshine
Gold - gorgeous gold
golden olive hrm - gorgeous gold combined with olive groove or sumptuous olive
melon - Say yeah!

Of course the textures and all are all different...why not try samples?

The veluxe shadow "steep" from High Tea is very similar in color to naked, except it's matte. You could overlay a sheer silver lustre type shadow to get a similar look one would think.

The color scheme 1 quad from a few years ago had a shadow that was very similar to copper sparkle. I have no idea how hard that is to find now.
Melon and say yeah e/s are very similar.
IMO, cool pink is a matte version of Kitschmas.
I have never seen anything that compares to the shine and texture of Platinum, gold, or the other metal pigments.

I passsed on Mineralism shadow from the new velux pearls that just came out, because it was almost identical to Coco pigment that I already have. My friend however, did buy mineralism, and I gave her a sample of my coco pigment, and she too said they were VERY VERY similar.
