My best friend and I are going to Europe in 2014 and I'm currently budgeting. Being on a budget sucks, especially when you love expensive makeup! So, to assist in my budgeting I've decided to no longer buy expensive products but dupe them with similar, less expensive but just as nice products.
#1 Maybelline Eye Studio Master Precise & Stila All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner

Stila is my all-time favourite makeup but the price is of their products are rather high. I do believe when you pay more for a product you're paying for a higher quality product, and Stila most certainly is a high quality product. Unfortunately when budgeting you need to cut out expensive products and try to replace with less expensive items. I found Maybelline Eye Studio Master Precise and fell in love. Its 1/3 of the price, lasts all day and goes on very smooth. This is the perfect way to save a little bit of money.
#2 Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain & Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint
Tarte products are amazing! They're made from natural ingredients and don't cause any strange damage to your skin. I adore their lip tint for numerous reasons- it comes in beautiful colours, smells amazing, stays on all day and moisturizes your lips. When budgeting this lip stain is out of the question, but Revlon has a lip balm stain that is so similar and is 1/4 of the price! Revlon's Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain is my favourite lip product at the moment. It's under $10.00 (I bought mine on sale for $5.99), it smells like mint, stays on all day and moisturizes! Needless to say I will not be buying Tartes lip stain anymore because I have moved on to Revlon!
#3 Olay Pro-X Advanced Cleaning System & Clarisonic Mia

This price range will blow your mind! I've been using the Olay Pro-X Advanced Cleaning System for four months and I love it. My plan was to purchase the Pro-X, save my money and eventually buy the Clarisonic Mia but since I'm budgeting the Mia is not an option. The Pro-X is usually $29.99, but goes on sale quite often, and the replacement heads cost $9.97 and comes in a pack of two. The Clairsonic Mia is, approximately, $150.00 and the replacement head is $30.00, and you only get one. Sure, the Clarisonic is well known as an amazing product that diminishes pores and exfoliates but using the Pro-X is still amazing. I've noticed my pores shrinking, my skin is softer and it's less oily. Even if you're not budgeting I'd recommend trying the Olay Pro-X Advanced Cleaning System!
Whether your budgeting or not in the mood to spend a lot of money, these beauty dupes are great purchases and will surely satisfy your need for new makeup or products!
Hope you enjoyed!
