Q & A – Looking For A Dupe
Posted on August 17, 2008
Hey kids! I’m flashing the bat signal because there’s a reader who needs your help.
T. loves OPI Red-y To Help but is having problems finding a bottle. She’d love a more accessible dupe. Since I don’t own it, I can’t help but I’m hoping you can. She would love to try Zoya so if you know of a clone from that line, let us know. Otherwise, any brand with a close shade will work. Submit your suggestions in the comments.
amazon always helps:

there is 1 left if you order within a week.

Hi there,
I took a look on Ebay and they have 6 bottles on there. This is the Canadian site so I’m sure the US site has even more. They start at $10 a bottle. Hope this helps.
I don’t know about a dupe – Redy is sorta one of a kind – but I got my bottle at AvenueYou.
It’s not 100% a dupe, but the new Zoya Colbie looks like it would be a good substitute for Red-y. Red-y is a tad browner, IMO.
Item number: 320120103283 on ebay it the best price i found. Cheap shipping & they will replace if the bottle breaks in shipping.
On that note I am dying to get my hands on Mac Whirlwind, can anyone help me out?
thanks everyone for your input-i ended up going through aveyou…they have a special $1 s & H. -T
M-The new China Glaze Rodeo Fanatic is suppose to be a very close dupe of Whirlwind. You might want to try that out.
TYVM tink!
You girls are the best! Thanks for all your input. I may have to pick up a bottle if it’s truly that unique as to not have a true twin.
And M – Tink is right, Rodeo Fanatic is very close to Whirlwind. I’ll be posting a comparison swatch with my collection review. Whirlwind has a tad more green to it.
