Hello guys!!!!!! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜† I'm back and this time I'm gonna share some unbelievably worth it makeup dupes out there in the market!

ARE YOU AS EXCITED AS I AM WHILE READING THIS??? Well, who wouldn't cause we all love cheap stuff that will save you a hell lot of money!
Those of you makeup junkies out there should know how difficult it is to decide when we're purchasing a new eyeshadow palette or even a foundation? Cause most high-end makeup brands sell those stuff above $70 and tbh, ask yourselves, do you really use the same eyeshadow palette everyday? The same lipstick, blush, bronzer, etc?? The answer is NO! How many times do we ask ourselves "IS THIS A NEED OR WANT?" before purchasing something? ๐Ÿ’ Its human nature that we all need more than one makeup product, not to mention all those temptations from makeup gurus on YouTube?! Thats why we need alternatives, because they do the EXACT SAME job but only a fraction of the price! And YES, believe me I've tried all of them and they really work!

Okay so less chit chatting, lets get down to business! ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”
#1 DUPE: Essence Make Me Brow Eyebrow Gel Mascara SG$4.50 VS SPLURGE: Benefit Gimme Brow Volumizing Eyebrow Gel SG$42

Just like Benefit's Gimme Brow, Essence's Make Me Brow has tiny fibers inside that creates the effortless full-brow look! Looking like we have more brow hair than we actually do ;) easy to remove and does NOT budge the entire day! Works like magic I swear! And it is less than $5?!?!?!?! Can't say no to that seriously!

#2 DUPE: Maybelline Fit Me Concealer SG$15 VS SPLURGE: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer SG$46

So we all know how GREAT Nars Concealer is, but only a few people would actually go for Maybelline's Fit Me Concealer, it really FITS ME so much better, not just the price wise but it literally feels the same, I've swatched and tested it side by side and its the same! Longevity and pigmentation is 100/100 no doubt! Doesn't wear off in the middle of the day when you put the right amount of setting powder with it and it does NOT crease! What else do you want???

#3 DUPE: NYX Pore Filler SG$24 VS SPLURGE: Benefit The Porefessional SG$54

So we all know the classic porefessional minimises your pores and makes your skin flawless YADADADADAADA..... but for $54's really??? Why not use something that's half the price but does the exact same job?! Say no more, just go to your nearest NYX store and give it a try! A lot of YouTubers agree with me too!

#4 DUPE: Colourpop Precision Brow Pencil & Colour U.S$5/$6 VS SPLURGE: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pencil & Pomade SG$18

Okay so who is not hyped about Colourpop going into Sephora soon???? Finally we can get our hands on Colourpop and do live swatches!! I really don't have to say much about Colourpop, if you have used their products before, you would already know how affordable and easy it is to use! Shipping doesn't cost much either, free shipping for purchases over U.S$50 !!! HELL YEAH?! I can't say it's a 100% dupe cause Anastasia's Brow Pencil is not as hard formulated compared to Colourpop's but according to colour wise and longevity and the price???? Well you've got your dupe!

#5 LASTTTTTTTTLY DUPE: NYX Lip Lingerie SG$20 VS SPLURGE: Kylie Jenner Liquid Lipstick U.S$27++ (Shipping U.S$14.95) = U.S$41.95

Hmmmm... by now the Kylie Jenner hype should have faded right? Well, at least for me it has! Firstly, the formula is really not as good as we expected? It is way drying than other liquid lipsticks out there. My personal favourite is still Kat Von D's Liquid Lipstick but their shades aren't really a dupe for the Kylie's one. So I went and tried on NYX's lip lingerie and it surprised me! My favourite everyday shades are Ruffle Trim and Seduction!! If you dap some and use your finger to blend, it will literally feel like there is nothing on your lips! If you're into the full Kylie Jenner lip look, it's doable too with NYX's lip lingerie ๐Ÿ˜˜ NYX also has a wide range of shades, so do drop by your nearest NYX shop to check them out asap!

#6 EXTRA FAV!! Colourpop Pressed Powder Eyeshadows U.S$5/each

I've stopped using most of my high-end eyeshadow palettes because I've fallen in love with Colourpop's pressed powder shadows! They are literally LIFE ๐Ÿ˜ they are so PIGMENTED, LONG-WEARING, LITTLE to ALMOST NO FALLOUTS (depending on each shades) and they have so many colours to choose from! They are also way more convenient to bring around because you can DIY your own palette in a Z palette or you can buy your own empty palette to fill in your fav shades. Can you tell by now that Colourpop is my favourite makeup brand?! I have tried almost all their products cause they keep coming out with new stuff every month?? And it's so difficult to say NO, ENOUGH? IT'S NEVER ENOUGH cause it's so worth it!!!! I also recommend their highlighters oh god damn yes blinding as hell and they won't give off a powdery look cause it's the super shock cheek spongey one! Okay I gotta stop, you get the idea. Just try Colourpop products if you haven't okay? I promise you, you'll definitely fall in love with them! โคโค
