Discontinued Lipstick Colors – Closest Substitutions?

I’ve recently found out two of my lipstick colors I use are no longer available, I was wondering if anyone else that used these two shades has found a very close substitution for them. If so, do let me know what brand and shade are a near match for them.

They are, Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick in Apple Polish, a vibrant orange frost. And a Lancome creme lipstick called Terra Rose. They were both beautiful shades I have literally used for decades. I’m sure we all can relate to the disappointment when a favorite shade of anything has been discontinued.

    Oh no, I’m sorry that two of your go-to lipstick shades have been discontinued! I completely understand how you feel. I experienced the same disappointment when my favorite shades were discontinued.
    I know it’s not the same, but have you tried checking out some dupes of those shades? It seems like many brands are making “dupes” of famous products these days, like the Charlotte Tilbury [url=https://bringingbeauty.co/the-best-dupes-for-charlotte-tilburys-pillow-talk/]Pillow Talk dupe[/url] that I’ve seen on the market. It might be worth considering if any brand has made a close match to the Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick in Apple Polish or the Lancome creme lipstick in Terra Rose.

    I loved a Maybelline one called Plaza. I went to a Harbour Town/Factory outlet and found two there. I bought them. You can make your lippie at a place in Fremantle,W.A. I wonder if you can do it Australia wide?

    Classy Irish Lass I think essence Cosmetics has a similar shade to the Terry Rose. I think the lipstick shade 13 . Just swatch those lipsticks and try. Essence lipsticks are great.

      I haven`t heard of that brand, but I shall look. I emailed both Revlon and Lancome asking what their closest colors are, waiting to hear back. The one poster may be right though, I may have to hit the drugstore tester area!

    Have you looked at the Revlon Colorstay Lipstick range? Can’t recall the shade numbers, but they have colours very similar to the pictures you have posted. I love this range particularly as you don’t have to reapply constantly. It is very long wearing. Hope you find something suitable.

    I can’t help you with that orange one, but the Terra Rose looks a lot like my Rimmel Lasting Finish in 058 Drop of Sherry, but I suspish that one’s discontinued too. I’ve bought umpteen tubes of it, but now it’s hard to come by.

    It looks like you’re off to hit the testers. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more helpful, Classy Irish Lass!
