Tarte Shape Tape £4 Dupe

The much hyped Tarte Shape Tape Concealer is one of my favourite discoveries of last year. I bought it around March time on QVC and have used it nearly everyday when I wear makeup and the tube is still going. Would you say its a favourite of mine? Yes 100%. One thing that I don't like about it is the price. I have never spent this much on concealer in my life and don't really fancy spending the same amount again when there are other cocnealers out there that I love. 

Makeup Revolution (another cult favourite brand) have released so many products recently and their new concealer caught my eye straight away. The first Superdrug that I visited were completely sold out of it but another had lots in so I just had to get one. Upon purchasing, swatching and looking at it, it reminded me of the Shape Tape almost immediately. So, of course I had to put them to test. 

Lidl's £4 Chanel Dupe

I recently read somewhere that Lidl sell a perfume for less than £5 that is a dupe for Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle, I knew that I just had to get my hands on it. On a recent visit to Lidl to pick up some bits and bobs, I spotted it down the toiletries isle! It's called Suddenly Madame Glamour. The packaging is very simple, a clear bottle with a white lid and gold accents. At £3.99 you get a generous 50ml. After that the rest is history. I spritzed the sample and fell in love, immediately 4 bottles ended up in my basket. Who can blame me, compared to £49 it is well worth it.

Ebay Find - Cartier Love Bracelet

Don't you just love when you find something on Ebay that is an absolute bargain buy? This time I was on the hunt for a dupe of the Cartier Love Bracelet as I have seen many people wear the real ones, and saw a real one myself when I went to Munich, I just knew that I had to have one. I could not ever justify spending £4600 on one but can justify £3! 

As always with dupes like these, I can't compare them with the actual thing because I don't own one. But I can compare with images and to me it is pretty much the same. The quality of this bracelet is very good and surprising to me seen as though it was very cheap, it took a while to get here as it was from overseas but I haven't stopped wearing it since. 

I saw this very late at night on Ebay and am so glad that I pressed the Buy Now button because it is a steal and well worth the wait!

EBAY FINDS| £2 NARS Kabuki Ita Brush Dupe

Yes, you did read the title of this blog post right, I have found a NARS brush dupe for just £2. When browsing Ebay a few weeks ago I came across the RT Dupes I bought a while back (full post here) and when scrolling down even further along came the image of a flat contour brush, that looked really similar to the NARS one! 

The images on the Ebay listing showed it with the NARS logo but I never believe anything I see on the internet until it comes in front of me. Until the other day it came in the post and oh my oh my, i screamed with a great deal of excitement because it came with the logo on and looks identical to the real brush. I don't own one as it costs a bomb of £43 at John Lewis  but looking at pictures it is pretty similar. 

I am beyond happy with the quality and it works a dream! For the price you honestly can't go wrong, and I am debating about whether or not to buy another one in case the seller stops selling it. It came two weeks after ordering if you were wondering, which isn't bad considering it comes from outside of the UK.

Ebay Finds|| Michael Kors Rose Gold Watch Dupe

One Saturday afternoon I decided to have a little browse on the Michael Kors website to see if there was anything that tickled my fancy. Wrong Choice. I basically fell in love with everything; the handbags, purses, watches and even the shoes! Everything just looked so pretty and I wanted it all!! But, then I snapped back in to real life and asked my self if I would actually ever pay nearly £300 for a watch , as it was the thing that my heart had fallen for. So, in the true spirit of finding cheaper alternatives, I found myself on eBay looking for some dupes. Shopping on eBay is a great way to save money on both designer goods and dupes and in fact, you can often find an eBay coupon to knock even more money off your haul - if you would like to learn how to use eBay coupons to save money you can discover more here by taking a look at some of the helpful resources on the Raise website.

I came across this  seller who sells MK look a like watches and literally nearly weed myself when I saw that I was only going to be paying £11 for a watch that basically looks the same! I was a tiny little bit scared at first of ordering as I didn't want to be mugged off, but to my surprise the watch arrived 2 days after ordering that Saturday (so it came on Tuesday!) in a little bag to keep it safe. It isn't as heavy as I expected, but is a little heavy if that makes sense, and I went to the watch shop nearby to get some links taken out and hey presto I had my very own rose gold watch. Since, buying it ..I cannot stop wearing it and have been staring at it constantly because it is just so beautiful. I may just order another one later in the year but a different style. The one I got is the 'Diamond Rose Gold' so it comes with the face all covered in 'diamonds' but there are other alternatives. 

I am so excited to start wearing a watch everyday and I find that anything rose gold looks great with everything you wear and the colour is becoming my fav!

After purchasing I found that Lydia//Life is Lovely Jubbly has also bought this watch and you can read her thoughts here. If you are sometimes scared of the price tag that comes with designer gear then do not be afraid to visit good old ebay..there are many more 'dupes' that you can find on Ebay in this post I did a while back. 

Hope you enjoyed and lets all pray that I win the lottery so I can actually buy the real one! Haha
