Almost a dupe of SN!

I had to laugh - I thought "wow, that's an awesome palette of colours but... hmm... doesn't the eyeshadow set look familiar?" and then it occurred, colour for colour, isn't that a close match of Karen's very own "Summer Loving" Collection? I have Rizzo and have seen swatches of the others, and although the descriptions are different, they wear very similarly. Wonder where they got their inspiration from

First Chanel and now Smashbox! Really there's only a handful of pigment manufacturers and they supply the entire industry- everyone buys from the same 5 places, so there's a lot of overlap in the industry. Every time I go dupe shopping I bring my colors and go out in the parking lot to compare- it's amazing how close they are sometimes. I've tried some MAC lipsticks only to go over to Bobbi Brown and spot the *exact* same color. I guess what comes around goes around...can't wait for my MAC order to get here tomorrow!
