I only have a couple of these lipsticks, but the couple I have are brill and I am here to praise those two. I stumbled upon the 1st of these lipsticks When I went into Boots searching for a cheap alternative for Mac's Up the amp lipstick. The cheap alernative I found was a collection 2000 lasting colour lipstick in 10 Berry blast, and I must say the colour is an exact match.
The second was the one I purchased today when looking for a cheaper version of Mac's Morange, and again the collection 2000 version i found, 11 Orange Punch is another very close match.
Unfortuately I dont have any Mac swatch comparisons cause the whole point of me buying the collection 2000 ones is so I didnt have to pay the mac pricetag, so you'll just have to trust me on this one...(or look up swatches on the internet)
For £2.99 I cannot fault these lipsticks, they are lasting colour, and they really do last. They apply easily and have quite a nice scent.
Here are some pics:

Have any of you tried the collection 2000 lasting colour lipsticks?
Any other cheap alternatives you can reccomend?
