Here's a quick look at those two shades, and while they are somewhat similar, they're not dupes. I do think Masquerading might be a good base to start with though if someone wanted to try to franken a closer dupe to Black Pearl.

Chanel Black Pearl & Color Club Masquerading Comparison
When I posted the Keep It Under Cover set from Color Club's Spring 2011 Alter Ego collection a few days ago, one of my readers, BlushingNoir, commented that the shade Masquerading reminded her of Chanel Black Pearl. I hadn't thought about that when I swatched it, but after reading the comment I wanted to find out!

BlushingNoir~you're welcome! I'm glad you brought up the thought. They are both pretty shades.
ReplyDeleteCobra Bracelet~price not considered, I think if I had to choose, I'd pick Black Pearl too. But Masquerading is a nice alternative.
Oyku~it's very pretty! Glad you like it :)
Nina Patricia~huge price difference, and of course most people don't notice the differences like we do!
Lucy~definitely the best alternative for the price. I may try to see if I can Franken something close to BP from Masquerading.
