When swatching these palettes side by side, they both feel buttery soft and pigmented. I know that the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance has 4 extra shades, but ignoring that obvious difference, the shade selection in the Wet n Wild Rosé in the Air Palette are all 99.9% spot-on similar to the ones that can be found in the highend palette. So in my eyes, I found this aspect about the palette the same - it makes sharing tutorials/looks and explaining which shades you used SO much easier! The only ‘difference’ here is that the Wet n Wild numbers are on the back of the palette. While Wet n Wild just uses numbers to ‘name’ their shadows, I find it just as helpful and serves the same purpose as the names in the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette. As for Warm Taupe and 1, I feel like they look the same…but the quality/pigmentation in the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette is much better than the Wet n Wild shade. Even with the difference in finger swatches, on the eyes I really can’t tell a difference and Raw Sienna is the shade I used when trying out looks and comparing it to 10. Raw Sienna is a bit more cool tone than 10…and I almost swatched Burnt Orange from the Modern Renaissance as well - because it also appears similar (in the pan) to the 10 shade from Rosé in the Air.

Love Letter and 8 are a touch different in tones…but it’s really hard to see that difference when they’re on the eyes (see example picture down below). Right Side of Rosé in the Air Palette, going downwardĪll matte shades, I felt like these were all pretty darn spot on.

Primavera looks more of a light gold and 3 a bit deeper gold, but once again I could not tell a difference on the eyes. Using in an eye look, though, you really can’t see a difference. If you are getting very picky, I feel like Tempera has a touch of pink in it whereas the browbone 2 shade in Rosé in the Air Palette has a touch of yellow. I find that all these shades show up - both in swatches and on the eyes –basically identical to the Modern Renaissance palette. There are only two shimmers in the Rosé in the Air Palette and both are on this side.

Just because a drugstore foundation applies as well as a highend does NOT make it a dupe if the drugstore foundation breaks down one hour later and the highend can take you through a 14 hour day. Just because products look the same or have similar claims does NOT mean it’s a dupe in my eyes! I want the drugstore product to PERFORM and LAST just as well (or better!) as my high end product. There are SO many videos, posts, and pins going around claiming that many drugstore products are dupes. And considering the price difference, everyone has been asking….”is it a dupe for Modern Renaissance?” Well, let’s dive into the nitty-gritty!ĭisclaimer: I am very picky when I do my dupe or dud posts. Last year the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance palette basically revolutionized the beauty community for it’s fantastic formula and warm-toned reds and oranges, so of course everyone immediately saw the similarities between these palettes. The buzz surrounding the new formulation and addition of matte shades in Wet n Wild’s popular Color Icon line hit an all-time high when we saw their Rosé in the Air palette.
