Feeling and looking good doesn’t have to break the bank, as a teenage girl myself I know how expensive makeup and skincare products can be however I have found some amazing beauty products that don’t cost a fortune and still deliver good results, arguably even better than some luxury brands I have tried. Here are my top affordable beauty dupes and finds that you can get in all Australian shops, including Coles, Woolworths and most pharmacy’s!
Skincare Must-Haves
Any beauty routine starts with a solid skincare routine, and these bargain priced items are fantastic!
- The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% 30mL ( priceline / $9.50 )
- Hero Mighty Patch The Original 24 Pack ( Woolworths / $13 )
- CeraVe Foaming Cleanser 236ml ( Chemist Warehouse / $15.99 )
- MCoBeauty Hydrate & Glow Ultra-Fine Mist Watermelon 75mL ( Woolworths / $25 ) – dupe for glow recipe!
All these products work wonders and have worked great for my skin type, however remember to always patch test before applying new products!
Makeup Favorites
You don’t have to give up quality for affordable makeup. These drugstore basics are amazing!
- MCoBeauty Cheek & Lip Tint Rose Glow Each ( Woolworths / $14 )
- Essence I Luv Extreme Crazy Volume Mascara ( Wizard / $6.50 )
- Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara Blackest Black Washable ( Wizard / $21 )
- MCoBeauty Super Glow Bronzing Drops 30mL ( Woolworths / $32 )
McoBeauty is known as an amazing brand for dupes that look and work exactly like the more expensive luxury products. My fav example would be the drunk elephant bronze drops for the McoBeauty super glow bronzing drops (linked above).
Hair Care Essentials
With these products, maintaining healthy, nurtured hair can also be super affordable. Another free way to up your hair game would be heatless curls (check my blog page for examples)
- L’Oreal Paris Elvive Moisture Filling Shampoo ( Target / $8 )
- L’Oréal Paris Elvive Extraordinary Oil Mask 300mL ( Target / $12.50 )
- L’Oreal Paris Elvive Glycolic Gloss Lamination Treatment 200ml (Chemist Warehouse / $20.99 )
Its no surprise L’Oréal is my top picks for all hair care, their masks and shampoos are perfection and their new gloss lamination treatment gives your hair salon looking gloss for only 20 dollars!
Tools That Won’t Break the Bank
Most beauty tools are super pricy with brands selling them for over 50 dollars a lot of the time, which is for too much for teenage girls and people on a budget! So I have found tools that work just as well for a fraction of the cost!
- Real Techniques Miracle Airblend Sponge+ 1 Each ( Priceline / $21.99 )
- Facial Ice Roller – Pink (kmart / $4 )
- Stainless Steel Gua Sha Massager (kmart / $9 )
Kmart is the place to look for beauty tools with often discounted prices and amazing quality you cant go wrong, plus it will upgrade your skincare and makeup routines by so much!
Now these are just a few of my most favourite affordable beauty products. They serve as proof that looking and feeling your best doesn’t require breaking the bank and splurging on expensive products. You may create a beauty routine that suits you without going over budget with these greatly priced picks!!
Thank you so much for reading till the end have an amazing day!
