I tried making a MC Manchineel Tree solar state dupe. Pretty happy with the result!
I love MC’s Manchineel Tree- both states are great, but I really love the solar state so Ive been trying to layer polishes to dupe it. I think Ive got it as close as I can with layering other polishes. If anyone else has recommendations, Id love to know!
Wearing: MC Manchineel Tree x 2, solar state from UV lamp.
Swatches, two versions, same layering. Only slightly different.
Left, bit deeper:
x1 Cirque “Sticky Icky”
x2 Cracked “Hot Honey”
x1 Lurid “La Cuidad Más Hermosa Del Mundo”
Right Swatch:
x2 Cirque “Sticky Icky”
x1 Cracked “Hot Honey”
x1 Lurid “La Cuidas Más Hermosa Del Mundo”
Im pretty happy with both, though the Right/lighter side lets a hint of the green undertone show through, which I found important for getting the color right.
