One of my most requested blog posts is always my recommendations for high-end dupe for both make up and skincare. For someone who spends way too much money on both of the above I am always on the lookout for cheaper alternatives. Here are just some of the best beauty dupes I have come across that are as good (if not better) than the more expensive items.
Love a NARS concealer? This is one of the best beauty dupes
I love NARS, they’re products are fantastic. However, their price points are a little higher than other make up brands. And for me £24 is a lot to spend on concealer.
Maybelline Fit Me concealer is remarkably cheaper at just £6 and provides the same creamy, super blendable finish I strive for. It’s also available in a range of shades to suit all complexions.
Are you obsessed with Ruby Woo from MAC?
This is by far one of my ultimate red lipsticks and I really don’t have anything negative to say about MAC lipsticks, I do genuinely believe they are worth the money. However, if you’re on the fence regarding a red lipstick or just want to use it as a one off £17 is a lot to spend. For an identical shade match, along with some serious staying power try the Barry M lip paint in Bombshell for just £5.
Looking for an eyeshadow palette to rival Naked heat? Try this Naked heat dupe.
Again, one of my favourite make up brands is Urban Decay and their eyeshadow palettes are iconic. But if you’re new to make up or simply don’t have the money to spend over £40 on one item a good alternative is the Rimmel Magnifies Spice edition. 12 shades of amber and bronze inspired eyeshadows for less than £10 this is definitely one to add to your summer make up bag.
Obsessed with No7 skincare?
Me too, I am wracking those boots points up like the best of us. However, Lacura from Aldi is an absolute treat. If you are yet to try any of their skincare, I don’t think you will be disappointed. For less than £10 you can treat yourself to a day and a night cream, with the exact consistency of the protect and perfect range from No7. With SPF and a range of different moisturisers to suit different skin types and ages this is definitely a range to pick up next time you end up in ‘that aisle’ in Aldi (if you know you know).
