    - lip glosses: MAC lipglas gloss (expensive) and NYX butter gloss (cheap);
    - lip oils: DIOR lip oil (expensive) and ELF Glow Reviver Lip Oil (cheap).

    What do we think the products are? For the clear glosses: the expensive one is definitely M•A•C Lip Glass and I'm 99% sure the cheap one is NYX Butter Gloss. It's the right price and has the same ingredient list on the website except the polyethylene and sorbitan sesquioleate are in the opposite order.
