Makeup lover raves about an $8 Fenty Beauty gloss dupe that’s cheaper and has comparable shades: ‘It smells way better’
A BEAUTY lover can’t stop boasting about her perfect pout that doesn’t require any pricey products.
She gushed about a cheap gloss that she thought was similar to a Fenty buy.
Redditor Rehlingenn did not remain tight-lipped about her favorite drugstore lipgloss find.
She shared how she believes the Maybelline Lifter Gloss is a close match to the Fenty Gloss Bomb.
“Maybelline Lifter Glosses smell way better than Gloss Bombs, are cheaper, and some shades in the range are pretty good dupes of the shades in the gloss bomb range,” she said.
“Now I can’t say that they’re better than the original in all aspects, but I do like them more,” she added.
If you want to try it for yourself, Amazon sells a Maybelline Lifter Gloss which is on sale for $7.98.
That’s less than half the price of the lip buy from the Rihanna-founded brand.
The Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer sells for $21 at Ulta.
Available in 20 shades, including copper and ruby, the Maybelline gloss offers plenty of options to choose from.
The high-shine gloss is described as giving your lips a fuller and more hydrated appearance.
Composed of hyaluronic acid, it also gives a smooth finish, especially when applied with their wand applicator.
The non-sticky formula can be used to plump up your pout.
And it turns out that she isn’t the only one who has discovered the dupe.
“Yes, Lifter Gloss is the only lipgloss I like! So comfortable, not sticky at all, and smells delicious!” said another Redditor.
“I definitely need to check out the lifter glosses then, I couldn’t stand the smell of the gloss bombs,” a user commented.
She had also found another cheap buy to add to her makeup routine – Flower Beauty Blush Bombs.
She compared the find to the more expensive Glossier Cloud Paints.
“I actually like the blush bombs more, I find the consistency is better and I like how the tube opening is narrow – just enough to get the right amount of product out,” she said.
“I always end up with more product than I need with the cloud paints and that’s just so wasteful,” she continued.
Available for $8.25 at Walmart, you can get almost three Flower Beauty Blush Bombs for the price of one Glossier Cloud Paint Gel Cream Blush that sells for $22 at Sephora.
“Yes, I love the Flower blush bombs. They look so dewy and pretty when they’re buffed out,” another Redditor agreed.
