    What is a makeup dupe? 

    A makeup dupe, short for duplicate, refers to a product that closely resembles another, often high-end or expensive item, in terms of colour, texture, and performance but is sold at a more affordable price point.

    These alternatives make it easier to achieve similar results without breaking the bank. Makeup dupes are a great budget-friendly alternative that doesn’t compromise on quality, meaning you can recreate trendy looks or iconic styles without the premium cost associated with luxury brands.

    What is the most beneficial way to wear a highlighter? 

    The most beneficial way to wear a highlighter is by applying it strategically to areas where light naturally hits the face, such as the cheekbones, brow bones, bridge of the nose, and cupid’s bow. Use a light hand and build up the product gradually for a subtle, natural-looking glow.

    Avoid over-application, especially on textured areas, to prevent emphasising imperfections. Opt for a highlighter formula that complements your skin tone and type, whether it’s a powder, cream, or liquid formula, to achieve a radiant and luminous complexion that enhances your features without looking overly glittery or artificial.
