Flirt cosmetics (found at Kohl's department stores) look like a mix of NARS and MAC!!! Their eye shadows look like a lot of MAC shadows. And the blushes look like a lot of NARS blushes. They even have some tube things that look like NARS multiples, but smaller sizes. they're reasonably priced also. blushes are about $12 and almost everything else is $10

 
Thanks, it's a very useful list

I have another look-alike item:

MAC "Kitschmas" pigment and Bourjois "Feu d'artifice" (number 26) eyeshadow

 
cool list!!! I already heard Milani e/s come in very similar colors compared to MAC e/s....but the direct comparison is very useful!!!

I think on my next US trip I will buy up every Milani e/s I can find *lol*

I´ll just make everyone drive me around the surrounding towns till I have hunted all the Milani e/s down *lol* and there is an Ulta not too far away and I´d think Ulta has the biggest Milani collection,no?
