Sorry for picture overload but this is a bit of a beauty! I knew that this had my name all over it and I wanted it as soon as I knew it was going to be re-released as part of the Apres-Chic collection. I soon realised once I got my new baby home that this is indeed 'me' as I already have similar colours in my collection:
Nars Orgasm
New CID Cosmetics in Coral Crush
Laura Geller Blush'n'Brighten in Apricot Berry
L - Stereo Rose. R - Coral Crush
I think the closest match to Stero Rose is the New CID Cosmetics iGlow in Coral Crush, however you do need to apply it with a heavier hand to get the colour pay off to meet MAC's.
L - Stero Rose. Middle - Orgasm. R - Coral Crush
Although in the pan 'Orgasm' looks very similar, once swatched it is much more pink and less metallic.
L - Coral Crush. Middle - Stereo Rose. R - Apricot Berry.
Laura Geller's offering of Apricot Berry is also very similar but maybes slightly more 'berry' toned which the name indicates anyway. This has actually been a favourite blush of mine; so much so that I'm almost hitting pan on it and I've had it now for maybes five years! (I can remember getting this delivered to my old work place and I've not worked there for 5 years in April so...)
I know Stereo Rose has now sold outline and I know my local counters have sold out of it too so if you are desperate to get this like I was then New CID's Coral Crush would be a good dupe! :)

I so wanted Stereo Rose - but wasn't quick enough. I like the dupes you have suggested. I will try & find one so I can at least feel like I have something similar.

yeah it sold out quick! xx
DeleteAh, great post, I've been using the NEW CID Cosmetics Coral Crush for about a year, now that it is running low the Stereo Rose is first on the list as its replacement. Although I absolutely love the NEW CID Cosmetics dupe! Ahh decisions! :-) SXX
ReplyDeletedecisions indeed! ;P xx
DeleteI've still got my old Stereo Rose too but I can't say I love it as much as I did Petticoat which is my all time favourite. I'm rediscovering my love for it now I've got a bit of tan on though! x
ReplyDeleteawww to have a tan!! i can dream... xx
DeleteThey are all so pretty!
ReplyDeletethanks Betzy... hope the move is going ok xx
DeleteI do like the look of Stereo Rose, and some of the dupes you've mentioned look really good too. I'm just about to embark on the 100 day spending ban though so no shopping for me :-)

Deletethere all so pretty! I need more blushes! lol
ReplyDeletei love blush! xx
DeleteLovely post hun! I was so gutted that I didn't get my hands on stereo rose, all of the mac msf's always sell out so quickly!! I really want to get my hands on one of those dupes now, might make me feel better about missing out! Really great post :) like that you feature loads of brands I love on your blog! xxxx
ReplyDeleteawww thank u! that means a lot :) xx
DeleteLove it! I was tempted by stereo rose, but passed it up. Oops...glad to know of sone dupes, thanks!!!

DeleteI was a bit annoyed with myself for not getting stero rose, but now after seeing how similar coral crush is to it (which i already own) I dont feel so bad!
