29 Cheaper Alternatives To Name Brand Beauty Products
Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener perfect for anyone who wants to trick everyone around them into thinking they got a full nine hours of sleep when in reality, they got maybe six. 😖 This stuff is basically the makeup of the future because it's designed with a color-adapting formula to help your bags ~disappear~, giving you instant coverage with a lightweight feel. And let's not forget it's much cheaper than the $33 Becca version. Stila eyeliner to create a precise look that will 👏🏼 not 👏🏼 smudge. 👏🏼 You won't even miss the slightly more dynamic double-tipped Tom Ford because you can create allll the same looks and feel good knowing you're saving money. 💰 L'Oréal Paris Collagen Daily Face Moisturizer reviewers equate to the $80 ~designer~ Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream but wayyyy cheaper and still just as hydrating, plumping, and smoothing. You're gonna love how it makes your skin feel without leaving your pores clogged or your face feeling greasy. Peach and Lilly acne spot dots that work just as well as the fan favorite Mighty Patches. Just stick one of these bad boys on your pimple overnight and be amazed (/disgusted) by the results when you wake up. The Face Shop's Rice Water Bright Foaming Facial Cleanser, which could basically be the only step in your skincare routine if you really wanted it to be. It'll help brighten, cleanse, moisturize, and remove your makeup all at once, which is pretty impressive itself, and on top of that, reviewers rave about it being a cheaper alternative to Tatcha Rice Wash, so I'd call that a win–win. Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder that magically turns into a foaming face wash when combined with water (just like the $68 Dermalogica version). It's made with fruit enzymes, vitamin C, and rice powder to gently exfoliate, soften, and brighten your skin. A L'Oréal illuminating moisturizer to instantly give you a ✨glow✨ while also hydrating your skin. The subtle tint will provide you a nice, light coverage on those days when you absolutely *cannot* with a full face of makeup. A jar of E.l.f. Poreless Putty Primer so you can feel confident that the makeup you just spent a lot of time on will actually stay in place all day. Plus this primer is designed to help reduce the appearance of your pores, so your skin will look extra ~smooth~ and hydrated. Maybelline's Total Temptation Eyebrow Definer Pencil to transform your sparse brows into the full ones of your dreams. You can make 'em bushier than a bunny's tail if that's the vibe you're going for. Mario Badescu Drying Lotion that will help dry up blemishes while you sleep just as well as Kate Somerville's EradiKate Acne Treatment. Yeah, go ahead and get one of those ~fancy~ drinks you like with that money you've saved. LilyAna eye cream to help lighten those dark circles and decrease puffiness under your eyes. It's packed with vitamin C and a bunch of other natural ingredients that can help improve the appearance of fine lines or dullness in your skin, just like the pricier Lancôme cream does. A pack of PleasingCare bamboo oil-blotting sheets for the times you catch yourself looking greasy as HECK. These can quickly and easily remove excess oils just as well as Tatcha's popular blotting sheets, without messing up your makeup. Nivea Creme (the German version!), which will help save you from the patchy, flaky, and dry skin we all experience at some point during the year. Plus, take reviewers' advice and save yourself over $150 by choosing this over La Mer's pricey Crème de la Mer. "We are never, ever, ever getting back together" — you to La Mer after you try the Nivea creme. CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser for removing excess oil, dirt, and makeup without leaving your skin feeling dry or uncomfortably tight (which is honestly one of my main pet peeves from face washes). Drunk Elephant Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser is quivering, knowing you won't be buying it again. Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Skin Therapy Oil that nourishes and hydrates your skin with natural ingredients to give you that same ✨glow✨ you get with Tarte Maracuja Oil, just for a ~fraction~ of the price. A rainbow-inspired eyeshadow palette with 40 shades (matte, shimmer, and metallic!) so you can get as creative as you could ever imagine. And somehow even with this wide variety *and* brilliant colors, it still won't cost more than $10!! Care:Nel lip mask that reviewers say is *spot on* to the other version (*cough cough* Laneige) that's viral on TikTok. This will hydrate your lips overnight while creating a protective barrier to help prevent future damage. Eve Hansen Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum designed to help (stay with me here…) smooth wrinkles, brighten dark spots, firm skin, add moisture, reduce under-eye puffiness, and give you a beautiful glow. Not to mention it is more than 10 times (!!) less expensive than the highly sought-after TNS Essential Serum, but just as effective! CeraVe Moisturizing Cream with a thick, velvety texture to absorb quickly and provide you with 24 hours of hydration. You won't hesitate to buy this over the Sunday Riley Ice Ceramide Moisturizing Cream, which is almost four times the price (and significantly less product). And CeraVe Skin Renewing Night Cream to help renew and hydrate your skin overnight with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, so you can have sweet dreams thinking of everything you can buy with the money you saved from not getting Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Firming Moisturizer. Garnier's Micellar Cleansing Water that'll remove makeup just like Bioderma. It'll also clear skin of dirt and oil, all without stripping your face of moisture. The highly effective Bio-Oil designed to help minimize the appearance of scars just as well as Mederma scar gel, a drugstore staple. Anndd as an added bonus, Bio-Oil is also made to help nourish your skin without clogging your pores. ALL that and still less than half the price — it just one-upped you, Mederma. Juno & Co.'s Clean 10 Cleansing Balm that'll make removing your makeup easy as can be. (Yup, even waterproof mascara doesn't stand a chance!) It features Japanese pearl barley, which melts into your skin to hydrate while cleansing away impurities. Reviewers even compare it to ~expensive~ products like Farmacy Green Clean and Elemis! Or a container of Albolene moisturizing cleanser reviewers are loving as an equally effective — and much more affordable — makeup remover compared to Clinique Take The Day Off balm. Massage this balm on your face and watch your makeup melt away. Or a makeup cleansing cloth that works just like the MakeUp Eraser to remove A L L your makeup by just adding water…yes, even waterproof makeup. Buhbyeee wasteful makeup removing wipes! How does it make sense? IDK maybe it's magic, but whatever it is, it *works.* Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer if you've been looking for something to cover up big pimples, redness, or dark circles without weighing you down or lightening up your wallet too much. Essence Lash Princess mascara that will give you the look of wearing falsies, without the hassle of making sure you actually know how to put them on. Not to mention, the end result will be basically the same as you would get with higher-end mascaras, only significantly cheaper. Elizabeth Mott's Thank Me Later Eye Primer, which will help make sure that smoky eye (that you spent way longer on than you'd like to admit) actually lasts through the night instead of melting off your face as soon as you walk out the door. A six-piece set of high-performance matte lipsticks so you can have ~options~ and still pay less than what you'd pay for *one* color of another brand. Don't worry, just because they're inexpensive doesn't mean they are cheap — reviewers are saying they perform just as well as those more expensive brands.
