There’s an exact dupe of this in Elegant Lashes’ #006 and how much does this cost? $11.99 for 3 pairs, that’s $3.99 each pair.

Wearing a liquid lipstick every day can make your lip primer run out fairly quickly. Instead of buying MAC Prep + Prime Lip over and over again at $34.99, perhaps you can buy NYX Lip Primer instead at only $4.79.
Now you can rock a bold liquid lipstick without worrying about drying out your lips.
