A BEAUTY fan has shared her review on $6 dupes she found for a $42 YSL lipstick.
Although there were notable consistency differences, for $6 she said there was no contest between the two beauty products.
Ale Jay (@alejayofficial) shared the makeup try-on haul in a TikTok video.
“The YSL lipsticks are a whopping $42 and SheGlam is only $6! Talk about a bargain!” she said.
“Let’s give them a side-by-side test, shall we?”
On one side of her lips, she applied the YSL lipstick in shade 15. On the other, she used SheGlam’s lipstick in the shade Plot Twist.
“The shades are quite different,” she said, comparing SheGlam’s mauve swatch to YSL’s cool-toned purple-pink.
“The SheGlam feels a little bit more glossier than the YSL. The YSL feels more like a lipstick,” she added.
“The textures look pretty similar. The YSL feels a little bit thicker than the SheGlam. The SheGlam feels very lightweight, more of a lip gloss.”
Next, she applied shade number 13 by YSL, which she compared to SheGlam’s Rule Breaker.
“They both don’t leave that sticky feel on the lips which we love,” she said.
“I feel like the shades are quite similar but the consistency is very different.”
Although she preferred YSL’s fancy packaging, she didn’t regret her SheGlam buy.
“For $6, honestly, you can’t beat this,” she said.
Her review inspired and influenced many eager to try the dupe out.
“I ordered the Sheglam and can’t wait to try them. I’m such a lippie girl,” said one commenter.
“The SheGlam looks so good omg,” added another.
