You better believe it: we found a dupe for the chart-topping Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer in Fenty Glow. Meet the peripera Ink Mood Glowy Tint in 14 Follow Rose, a light-reflecting lip tint that’s made with a 3-tiered glow formula for instant glossiness and a plumping effect. Lily and Witch Hazel extracts relieve chapped skin, while Coconut Oil and Prickly Pear extract make the lips soft and supple. The shade match is enough to make us reach for this dupe, but its lip-perfecting benefits make us love it even more.

Loose Powder Swap

The HG: Laura Mercier’s Translucent Loose Setting Powder

The Dupe: ETUDE's Zero Sebum Drying Powder

Laura Mercier’s Translucent Loose Setting Powder is a cult favorite amongst beauty lovers, but its high price isn’t exactly wallet-friendly. Instead, swap in the ETUDE Zero Sebum Drying Powder which gets you the same soft focus, silky-matte finish at a mere fraction of the price (we’re talking over 80% off). The K-beauty dupe incorporates Sugar Polymer and Cotton extracts into its formula to control excess oils and strengthen the skin barrier over time.

Lip Gloss Swap

The HG: Dior's Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss in 009 Intense Rosewood

The Dupe: Romand's Glasting Melting Balm in 07 Mauve Whip

Save your hard-earned coin on the Dior Addict Lip Maximizer Plumping Gloss in 009 Intense Rosewood, and look towards the Romand Glasting Melting Balm in 07 Mauve Whip. Comparable in shade and finish, Romand’s beloved formula is infused with nourishing plant-based oils and kitted out with a water holding system that deeply hydrates the lips. The balm glides on to provide a smooth, watery glow, in addition to vibrant pigmentation that rivals its more expensive counterpart.

Lipstick Swap

The HG: Charlotte Tilbury's Matte Revolution in Pillow Talk

The Dupe: Romand's Zero Matte Lipstick in 01 Dusty Pink

Move over Charlotte Tilbury, there’s an affordable K-beauty lipstick coming for your crown. There’s no need to dip into your savings for the Matte Revolution lipstick in Pillow Talk when you have the ultimate dupe: the Romand Zero Matte Lipstick in 01 Dusty Pink. This lipstick formula provides intense color payoff in a velvet-matte finish, feeling featherlight on the lips without drying them out. No flaking nor caking will be experienced as the butter-like formula glides onto the lips.

Concealer Swap

The HG: Dior's Dior Forever Skin Correct Full-Coverage Concealer

The Dupe: CLIO's Kill Cover Founwear Concealer

If it’s the look and feel of the Dior Forever Skin Correct Full-Coverage Concealer you’re after minus the high cost, get to know the CLIO Kill Cover Founwear Concealer. It combines high coverage and weightless adhesion for a formula that blurs imperfections, dark circles and blemishes. Fans of the concealer note how it blends out effortlessly and stays put once it sets, its matte finish appearing natural on the skin.

Lip Stain Swap

The HG: YSL's Vinyl Cream Lip Stain in 440 Rose Player

The Dupe: Romand's Dewyful Water Tint in 13 Custard Mauve

Courtesy of Korean Makeup Brand - Romand

Sure, the YSL Vinyl Cream Lip Stain in 440 Rose Player screams luxury in a chic way, but when it comes down to performance and how it looks on the lips, it’s the Romand Dewyful Water Tint in 13 Custard Mauve that shines. This lip tint formula is reminiscent of fresh dewdrops, illuminating your pout with a juicy gloss; plus the shade is a dead ringer for YSL’s version. The particular shade is a favorite amongst beauty enthusiasts in Korea and worldwide for its MLBB vibe that pairs well with any makeup look.

Lip Oil Swap

The HG: Rare Beauty's Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil in Serenity

The Dupe: CLIO's Crystal Glam Tint in 01 Vintage Apple

Courtesy of Korean Makeup Brand - CLIO

It’s almost universally agreed that Rare Beauty has dominated the bestselling charts since its inception but that being said, their products are almost always out of stock. If you’ve been eyeing the Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil in Serenity but can’t get your hands on it, pick up the CLIO Crystal Glam Tint in 01 Vintage Apple in its place. Not only do you get to enjoy savings, but the latter gives you a honey-dipped glow and brilliant crystal-like color to match. It promises a formula that glides onto the lips, sans tackiness.

Brow Gel Swap

The HG: Refy's Brow Sculpt

The Dupe: Unleashia's Shaper Pomade Eyebrow Fixer

A dupe down right to the identical multi-use brow comb, the Unleashia Shaper Pomade Eyebrow Fixer is an unequivocal dupe for the Refy Brow Sculpt. This strong-hold pomade fixes brow hairs in place, whether you’re going for a bold and fluffy or neat and natural brow look, setting them without making them appear crunchy or stiff. The formula contains setting powder for all-day hold, while Rice, Soybean Seed and Perilla Leaf extracts soothe the skin.

Blush Swap

The HG: NARS' Blush in Thrill

The Dupe: Romand's Better Than Cheek in 02 Blueberry Chip

Courtesy of Korean Makeup Brand - Romand

If the NARS Blush in Thrill’s out of your budget, the Romand Better Than Cheek in 02 Blueberry Chip is a good substitute. The fluffy powder blush formula blurs the cheeks with its soft-matte formula, creating a seamless dried fruit-inspired flush that blends smoothly into the skin. Sweat and sebum-absorbing powders make the blush long-lasting and feel refreshing, rather than cakey, crumbly or patchy.

Foundation Swap

The HG: Dior's Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation SPF15

The Dupe: CLIO's Kill Cover Founwear Foundation SPF30 PA+++

Courtesy of Korean Makeup Brand - CLIO

As much as the Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation SPF15 is a coveted makeup product, its hefty price tag makes it a little inaccessible. An affordable dupe that performs just as well, if not better, is the CLIO Kill Cover Founwear Foundation SPF30 PA+++: this foundation covers pores, imperfections and skin texture with thin, natural-looking coverage, fixing onto the skin to reduce the need for touch-ups. Its formula includes Niacinamide and Adenosine to brighten the complexion over time.
