Thalia and Tea Rose are a bit more grey than this shade, and might look closer to Twig. The packaging is OK, but definitely feels budget. The scent is a bit weird вЂ“ slightly soapy? вЂ“ but I donвЂ™t find it unpleasant. ItвЂ™s a bit more pink/red and less brown than Twig. NYX Creamy Round Lipstick in Dol l вЂ“ This specific shade isnвЂ™t available in Australia вЂ“ IвЂ™ve listed the price of the other round lipsticks, but I remember getting this online for cheaper. This has been one of my favourite everyday lipsticks for a while! The packaging is nice and solid. ItвЂ™s super moisturising and comes in a convenient slim tube. The colour payoff is great though, and the tube feels nicely solid вЂ“ however, it does have a very old-school lipstick scent.ДЇace of Australia Lasting Looks Lip Creme in For Many a Moon* вЂ“ This is pinker than Twig, and a bit more sheer but is still easily opaque in two layers. ItвЂ™s creamy to apply but starts feeling dry after a few hours. ItвЂ™s pretty close to unfragranced.ДЇace of Australia Lip Quench Moisturising Lipstick in Mocha Latte* вЂ“ This is a slightly browner shade than Twig. The packaging has a unique brown cardboard and matte metal theme that survives surprisingly well in my handbag. It takes a few swipes to get good colour payoff, but the colour gives a very natural-looking sheer glow thatвЂ™s kind of bronze. IвЂ™ve been told that natural lipsticks are harder to formulate, which might be why the feel isnвЂ™t quite as slippery as the other options, but thatвЂ™s the sacrifice you make if you choose to use non-synthetic products.

Neek Skin Organics Lipstick in Friday On My Mind* вЂ“ This is a 100% vegan and natural lipstick, the only one I have in this colour family.

ItвЂ™s a bit more expensive for the weight than the other options though, and the pencil requires sharpening (the range comes with a very handy portable sharpener). ItвЂ™s designed to be a creme blush as well. It glides on super smoothly and feels fantastic to apply. This colour will look fantastic on a lot of people вЂ“ on me, it looks very muted and nude. NudeStix Lip + Cheek Pencil in Mystic* вЂ“ Slightly paler. ItвЂ™s a bit drying as well, but for the price itвЂ™s hard to complain too much. Its floral scent also hangs around for a bit, which wonвЂ™t be to everyoneвЂ™s liking. This is an excellent budget option вЂ“ the main drawback is that the packaging feels flimsy, and the bullet is a bit wobbly in the packaging. ItвЂ™s almost the same shade as Revlon Sultry and the colour is fantastically long-lasting. Ulta3 Matte Lipstick in Rose Bloom вЂ“ Close colour dupe, slightly matter finish. Like other Revlon crayons, this has peppermint oil which gives a minty scent and a weird tingle. The colour is a bit redder than Twig, but itвЂ™s pretty damn close! The colour payoff is great.

The crayon format of this lipstick makes it very easy to apply, and I love the matte metal detail on the twist-up end, although IвЂ™ve found that these Revlon lids crack very easily and then slip off in handbags. Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm in Sultry вЂ“ Close colour dupe. The packaging screams luxury, with a cool magnetic closure that snaps shut with a satisfying click. ItвЂ™s very creamy and moisturising for a satin lipstick, with nicely opaque colour payoff. This is a tiny bit little pinker than Twig, but has the same sort of finish. Marc Jacobs Lip CrГЁme in Infamous* вЂ“ Close colour dupe. The colour payoff is magnificent, and itвЂ™s opaque with one swipe, with a not-quite-matte, not-quite cream finish. It smells pleasantly vanilla.В The formula is a bit drying on my lips, but my lips are very prone to dehydration (fat lip life) so most people will fare better. MAC Satin Lipstick in Twig* вЂ“ This is a lovely pinky-brown colour thatвЂ™s great for my-lips-but-better looks on darker girls i.e. (This is only about a third of my pinky-browns. Then I realised that I had an embarrassing number of lipsticks in my collection in the same colour familyвЂ¦so why not do a swatch comparison post?

IвЂ™ve always been a fan of the brown/rose/mauve family of lipsticks, so when I got my hot little hands on the much-loved MAC Twig, I wasnвЂ™t surprised when I loved it.
