LORAC Front of the Line PRO Liquid Liner Dupe?

I think I have discovered a dupe for the LORAC Front of the Line PRO liquid liner in the Physicians Forumla 2-in-1 Lash Boosting Eyeliner + Serum liquid liner.

Both of these liners have calligraphy pen tips that are little flexible paintbrushes (versus, say, a felt tip).

They both apply very nicely and make it easy to create a thin or a thick line.  They seem to be equally black, and have very long wear-times.

The Physicians Formula claims to have ingredients that encourage lash growth, but none of the ingredients on the list have any research on them to back up that claim.

I cannot discern any difference between these two.  I wore one on my left eye and one on my right one day and forgot which was which by the end of the day.

These are both excellent liners, but the LORAC Front of the Line PRO is $23 and the Physicians Formula is around $11.

Zoya Rica vs. Spoiled Shrimp on the Barbie

I try not to buy nail polishes that are similar to ones I already own, but since I am drawn to the same color over and over, it is inevitable I will eventually end up with some dupes.  I think I have found a Zoya Rica dupe in Spoiled's Shrimp on the Barbie.

Shrimp on the Barbie is a little bit pinker in the bottle, but on the nails I don't see a discernible difference.

They both have a dark hot pink base with a ton of fine gold glitter.  Neither apply or remove like a gritty glitter polish.  The glitter almost seems like sparkly shimmer.


For these photos, I have Zoya Rica on my index, middle, and pinkie fingers, and Spoiled Shrimp on the Barbie on my ring finger.

I don't think my photos show just how pretty and sparkly these polishes are.

Zoya nail polishes are $8, and Spoiled polishes are $1.99 at CVS.
