Recessionista take two-H&M glosses& dupes

I just got this pretty pearly pink gloss:

It's part of the (rather) old H&M glosses from their 'spring collection'. The shade is 'Mrs. Two Faced'- i really fancy their clever product names.
The consistency is very creamy but not that runny. It tends to bleed a little, but it's a perfect nude lip gloss, either worn by itself or in combos. I love the peachy-champagne shimmer and the neutrality of the shade, very delicate and natural. This is what Mrs. Two Faced looks like (flash photography):

This baby is part of a series of three pink-toned glosses:
Mrs. Two Faced
Penny 4 Your Thought
Rootless Ruby
Rootless Ruby is, according to MinMote (Norwegian beauty community, blog, sales, lovers of everything superficial), a 'dupe' for several lipsticks:
-Clarins Jolie Rouge in Parisian Pink
-MAC in I Show Orchid
-Collistar in Fuchsia
-L'Oreal Color Riche in 103 Radiant Rose



As i've always loved H&M glosses, i am definitely going to purchase all three of them. Not sure about the exact dupe-ness with regards to the Clarins and MAC lipsticks (i don't own any of those), but it's a good thing someone drew the attention- who knows? Maybe they ARE identical (which would be great since i'm on a student budget).
