The girls that get it, get it: Jeffree Star’s Unicorn Blood is the liquid lipstick of legends—part vampy, part witchy, all killer. But let’s be real, it’s basically a holy grail for pale olive skin tones like mine, right? You know the one: that deep, blood-like brown red that’s not a screaming tomato but a sultry, smoky vibe. I’ve tried every red under the sun, and honestly? Most look like a clown’s腮红 on my face. My go-to? Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink in ‘Voyager’—it’s my secret weapon for that autumnal, muted glow. But let’s face it, it’s so hard to find Unicorn Blood in stock, and when you do, it’s basically a luxury item. So I’m here to ask: does anyone know a dupe that’s actually worth the hunt?
Here’s the real deal: Unicorn Blood isn’t just a red—it’s a specific shade that balances brown undertones with a matte finish that doesn’t budge. I’ve tried Mac’s Retro Matte ‘Carnivorous’ and it’s too dark for my skin, like wearing a vampire cape. And while it’s a great color, it’s way too saturated for my pale complexions. I’ve also tested out some drugstore options, but nothing hits that perfect depth. The key is finding a shade that’s rich but not overwhelming, with a matte finish that lasts all day. It’s like trying to find a black dress that’s not too black—there’s a sweet spot, and it’s elusive.
If you’ve got a dupe that’s actually working, I’m begging you to share it. I’ve tried so many shades, and honestly, I’m still chasing that exact tone. Some of my faves? Fenty’s ‘Black Magic’ (it’s so close) and maybe a few cult-fave indie brands, but I’m still hunting. The vibe is all about that muted, vampy look that doesn’t scream ‘I’m wearing red’ but instead whispers ‘I’m so confident.’
So, what’s your go-to blood-red dupe? Or have you found a way to recreate that Unicorn Blood magic without breaking the bank? Drop your fave in the comments—let’s make this shade officially a thing again.
