I haven't really been too interested in MAC releases lately because over the summer they had new collections every couple of weeks and I found that a little overwhelming. I saw Rachel (icallitambrosia) wearing this lipstick in a couple videos and every time that I saw it, I liked it more and more. I went on a hunt for this lipstick because it was sold out everywhere!
One thing that I noticed when I opened up the tube is that it looks very similar to my favorite MAC lipstick
Gladiola.
Upon swatching, you can see how similar these colors are outside of the tube. They are so similar that I would say
Night Blooming is a 98% dupe for
Gladiola. The only difference is that
Night Blooming is a semi-matte and
Gladiola is a matte, which gives them a slightly different look but nothing too major.
Night Blooming is a really comfortable lipstick--it doesn't feel like you are wearing anything on your lips which I love and it last for a long time 6+ hours. I really love everything about the color and texture and I feel like it could work on many different skintones. If you are able to find this in stores, I think you should snatch it up or you'll regret it.
NEW DUPE FOR THIS COLOR!

I know that I recently did a blog post on MAC's Night Blooming being a very similar, almost dupe to MAC's Gladiola. Unfortunately, Night Blooming was a limited edition color, and it is no longer available. Alas, I have discovered a cheaper dupe! I've always wanted to try some products from Sleek because they are a "drugstore"/ lower end brand in the UK but they are still affordable and close in price to drugstore products here in the US! I live on a college, so when I come across a 6$ lipstick, I am an extremely happy camper.
Mystic is the name of the lipstick from Sleek and you can spot the swatch of it in the middle. As you can see, Mystic looks a tiny smidge darker than the other two, but it's really not that much of a different. On the lips the colors are all very similar and the slight color difference isn't noticeable. If anything, Mystic is closer to Gladiola on the lips because they are both matte lipsticks, whereas Night Blooming is a semi-matte. So far, I'm really enjoying the quality that Sleek is offering for the affordable price. I have noticed that wear time on Mystic isn't the highest, so you might have to reapply throughout the day/ night.
