Omg how do you not have 4 million followers?? You speak intelligently and it's obvious that you care about what you do. I found you by accident but I am so thankful I did! My dupes are: the Milani eye primer instead of smashbox, the rimmel stay matte instead of smashbox. I know I have others I can't think of but those are a couple I use all the time.
I don't normally comment, but I had to say....I absolutely love how descriptive and thoughtful you are! 😍 You and EmilyNoel are my favorite reviewers! Love you Jessica! 😘
Yes. I even thought of Emily when she mentioned the Bobbi brown undereye concealer and the Pixi one since I've seen Emily mention both in the same video as being similar . (As well as the benefit one she loves of course!)
The elf comes with 0.04oz and the Laura Mercier comes with 0.14oz. Essentially, you could buy 4 of the elf powder, have 0.16oz and only pay $12. Way to go ELF!
I absolutely love the Elf under eye setting powder! I have been using the same container since December and am not even halfway through. I have zero creasing when I use this. Great dupe!
Do a back to school teacher face! Would love to see your day to day looks. I'm a fifth grade teacher also. I don't have time to reapply anything during the day and would love to see your tips!
straberri1979 I'm an art teacher and I hardly have time to reapply makeup. I always have some sort of bold look cause it's something I enjoy and it's like art! That's a great idea!
You did an amazing job with this video Jess and I appreciate you taking the time to find cheaper alternatives for your subscribers. I started out trusting so many youtubers, but at this point I primarily trust you with my small beauty budget. I do have a video request... After I apply my morning skin care regime and finish off with sunscreen, I cannot avoid screwing it up with my primer. I've tried so many that you've recommended and love them without the spf. If you could offer any tips you have for this, I would appreciate it so much!
FanofHarper i had a similar problem and I decided to get a moisturizer with spf in it, tried the aveno one with spf30 and haven't had any problem with the primers I've tried. I tend to go for hydrating or pore filling primers
Have you tried switching up your SPF? IDK if that's an option but I have found some SPFS don't play well with ANY of my makeup. Currently,the Coola Sport so I am glad I didn't purchase the full size😫
Hmm... Have you checked to make sure you're coordinating your sunscreen with your primers? Like there's no one is water or oil based and the other isn't so it messes up? I don't even know if that's an issue, but I remember someone forever ago mentioning that in regards to foundation and primer sooo I don't see why it's not possible with sunscreen and primer.
I have found my holy grail combo. I use a hydrating serum, then the bare minerals sun screen fluid and then Dr. Brandt pores no more primer on top. I have used it cosmetics cc cream, no. 7 stay perfect and lancome teint idole foundation on various occasions. they all seem to work for me. FYI I have a really oily T-zone..
also make sure you allow 10ish mins between your spf and primer so it has time to soak in skin and not sit on top.... my best advice is get daytime moisturizer that has spf in it. try the simple brand moisturizer no oils but a lot of spf and cheap!
Lauren S so much! She is so genuine. She hasn't fallen into the beauty guru trend of fakeness, constantly code pushing, etc. you can tell Jessica truly cares about what she does & for her subscribers. Her, thataylaa, dramatic mac, glam & gore, itslikelymakeup, & raw beauty kristi are my all time faves!
She is my Favorite ! Speaks clearly without al those um's, ya know's like other Utubers. She gets right into it. Most of the others do a lot of talking about themselves or nothing for half the video ! Love You Jessica !!!!
Next time I need to justify a purchase I will exclaim "It's for the greater good!" like Jessica did even though it doesn't apply to me. That cracked me up. She's so cute.
Sonia Kashuk has a dupe for the Viseart palette and it's pretty much a replica. It's called Eye On Neutral Matte-02 and it's seriously one of my staple palettes!
Beauty treats has a pallette identical to the viseart pallette for only $2!!!!! And it's extremely pigmented I found it at a five Below store but they have it online to but I'm not how much is online
PRO TIP: to make liquid lipstick way less drying, put a thin layer of face oil or coconut oil on the lips while you're doing the rest of your makeup, then apply the lipstick! It will go on SO buttery, stay on longer, and look flawless! Wet N' Wild is my fav, especially the color "Rebel Rose" It's the perfect nude! ♥️
Boots, which runs No.7 formed a parent company alliance with Walgreens ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walgreens_Boots_Alliance ) so No.7 is basically now Walgreens' house-brand. It's nuts!
casitive Boots though is it's own drugstore in the UK, so they are licencing it to Walgreens to market in the US, but it wouldn't be owned by Walgreens because they wouldn't sell it at places like Target and Ulta.
happyfacefries boots is actually owned by a Boots-Walgreen partnership but i guess in the States they're selling their products elsewhere. its so unfair that we aren't getting all the great US products!!
I was BLOWN AWAY when she revealed which side was the drugstore! I genuinely thought the drugstore side was the high end side! Especially when it came to the bronzer, blush, and liquid lipstick!!!
Thank you for being so thorough!! Not only talking about the dupes, but showing them side by side, testing application, and wear time. Jessica is the best!!!
I used to have oily skin and know because of a treatment my skin is very dry and that foundation saved my life. I find that it looks better after like an hour of use because thats when stops looking cakey. I love it and I really recommend it. However, if you have oily skin stay away from it. 😘
Thank you for not only finding these dupes, but for wearing them side-by-side AND especially showing us how they wear in real life. So many times I've owned things people say are dupes, but in my experience the lasting power isn't even close to other products they're being compared to and in the long run I end up so frustrated I just give them away. This kind of video is so helpful and valuable. You rock!
happyfacefries No7 is from Boots, and Boots is owned by Walgreens. I'm assuming it's sold in multiple stores to maximize profit, because Soap & Glory is owned by Walgreens as well, and it's sold in multiple places as well
whitefrost2012 Boots was their own at least at one time and it's a UK drugstore, so really it is Boots. the Walgreens must have a parent company because Walgreens would not be licencing their product for another store like Target or Ulta.
I love how you always use affordable make up brands and even when you use high end you always suggest a cheaper option which is awesome because not everyone is willing or can afford to spend that much hard earned money on makeup alone !
Great video, I totally love these 1/2 and 1/2 with dupes videos! Because you can really see how after it's applied, you can't tell the price. Another great drugstore bronzer option for fair skin is the seasonal L'Oreal Glam Bronze. The lightest shade is cool and very flattering on fair skin, and you really can't screw it up.
I love Makeup Revolution for coming out with similar products as other companies because not everyone can afford high end brands but really want something like it, it's an awesome idea that they do it!
Hey I'm not even finished yet watching your video lol. It's exactly midnight where I live (Indonesia). Just wanted to say that I love you and the great and amazing contents you gave to us. I trust you.
You are becoming my favorite youtuber! I love that you do so many drugstore videos and give us all these dupes. You give really good descriptions of the products and never fail to impress me.
I found your channel maybe a month ago. Watched one video. For the last three days ive watched nothing but your videos. You are so down to earth honest and I love your channel. Just kudos girl
Felisha Albert I agree, I could only tell because of the highlighter; because the drugstore concealer looked better as her dark circles showed through the high end side. It's because I don't have much faith in Bobbi Brown that I immediately guessed it was high end.
Felisha Albert i think it's lighting issue....there is a shadow on her drugstore side as seen on the inner eye- top of bridge of nose. I just think with balanced lighting it would be equal
Best dupe video I've ever seen on youtube, already a fan of your videos but this one was great. The "how they wear all day" portion was great because sometimes make up swatches/applies the same, but then you wonder how it looks at the end of the day. You covered all of this!
i just have to say i really appreciate your videos you are very witty and have great manners, you are a role model and i could watch you all day and recommend to all ages! when i worked in sephora i felt confident to let people know i watch you! you get straight to the point and very knowledgeable and seem like you put a lot of work into this, needless to say i hope youtube pays you well and you keep up the great work girly
I have the Bobbie Brown corrector and I have the Pixi.. I picked up the NYX Dark Concealer and it is more emoliant then the Pixi.. Pixi feels dryer to me.. anyway I love the BB and the NYX much better..
Susan J. D'Amico I actually don't like the NYX one because while the color is nice, it's too emollient for my skin and creases almost immediately. Crazy how some products work totally different for some people.
Honestly your high end side shows more dark circle than your drug store side, not sure if it's the camera or shade issue with the two concealers but drug store side look better : )
Jessica, this look is SOOO gorgeous! I’ve really never seen you wear this type of makeup look and you look absolutely stunning as always! Thanks so much for sharing!💕
Tracy Frederick do you have any lavender or cedar wood oil? I use both in all my mascaras because they supposedly help with lash growth/inhibiting your lashes from falling out. However, one of the best uses I've found is that with dryer formulas (and lash paradise is quite dry right out of the tube), it thins the formula ever So slightly. Give it a try- just one or two drops!
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 you should see the prices in Australia! I did a comparison the other day and L'Oréal Miss Manga Mascara was $21.95 AUD and Tarte Gifted mascara was $29.00 AUD from Sephora! I've decided, as a result, not to use the term affordable makeup anymore.
so very true the prices here in Australia are crazy, even Elf is three times the price and some brands up to 4 or 5 times. it is truly ridiculous and so unfair
Your videos make me so happy. I find it so admirable that you work a full time job along with making these videos! Love your honesty and transparency! Also I can't wait to see a house tour! 😍
Some times the "copy cat" palettes are from parent companies. So if say you found a palette from L'oriel that is pretty much a knock off of Urban Decay, L'oriel is actually the parent company of UD. There are others like that, but I'm not exactly sure at the moment who all is the parent company of who.
I really love the viseart vs hard candy dupe! Even though the colors are not the same, they are pretty similar. Also love your makeup look! When you mentioned, Essence and eyeliner I thought of the Essence superfine eyeliner pen(the non waterproof one). It is $3-4 and its like the KVD liner. It may smudge faster but are really similar.
hi jessica,would you please do a review about milani baked blush?because in my country,that blush just become a huge boom among the woman and i'm very curious about it and you're the beauty gurus that i trust the most..btw,great review as always..😍😍
hi,thank you so much for your reply..i think i'm going to buy the shade luminoso and dolce pink since i've heard of many beauty gurus review about it,so curious!!..thank you girls! xoxo
hi sarah,thank you for your reply..i cannot wait to buy the shade luminoso and dolce pink,i heard the dolce pink is similar with nars orgasm,is that true??thanks again girls!! xo
Definitely feel the drugstore side looks better and lasted longer. And I have to say, Thank you, Thank you, Thank for doing updates without filter. It has given me perspective on my own make up look and trying to achieve perfect flawlessness
I love your Dupe videos. Being in Canada though,NYX is at least $5 more per item so kinda takes some of the fun out of drugstore finds. Love your look today 😎
Congrats on 400 K, you're one of my favorite beauty vloggers, even though my skin tone is way darker than yours. You make very good recommendations on what to buy and what not to buy.
I bought that Hard Candy pallet and got zero color payoff. It was so bad I threw the pallet in the trash. I've never been as disappointed with any makeup purchase.
YESSS that NYX liner is amazing, completely blew me away when I bought it last week. I didn't think a liquid liner pen could be so smooth, opaque, and easy to apply. And another big YES to the Essence Princess Lash, I've been using is for a while now and it never disappoints, I recommend it to anyone who wants amazing volume but is sick of paying over $20 for high end mascaras.
I appreciate it when brands are not duping the exact same colors. To me makeup revolution is all about plagiarism and I hate that when the product was completely copied in a cheaper way. I don't know why they are not sued yet.
Yes!!! I absolutely LOVE that NYX liner! I replaced my Kat Von D liner with it and I like it better. No one believes me when I tell them how great it is!
ivanete roark Well its a cheap brand like Wet n Wild or NYC, its tailored to young girls just getting into makeup who don't have money for nice products with classy packaging.
I actually love the packaging lmao. You should look at wet n wild lash renegade (sp?) It's bulky and unnecessary. I hate it, but the mascara is so good!
Jessica, i adore your videos!!!!! I love even more how your husband loves you in your moo moo!! My grandmother bought me some and my husband loves when i wear mine too!!!! Lol i had to rewind that piece like four times to hear you say it because it made my life, lmbo!! You're, hands down, in my top three favorite youtubers!!!
I love love these videos!! For the life of me I cannot find a dupe for the Too faced Sweet Tea Bronzer and the Nars Blush in Torrid!!Please if you have any suggestions, I'd love to know!!!
LesR Kew A dupe for Nars Torrid is Loreal in Rosewood. and for the Sweet Tea bronzer, you could try the Physicians Formula butter bronzer in light. I googled it. 😉
Jessica Garcia I recently bought a Revolution highlighter and it is a straight dupe for the too faced love light highlighter. I got it at Ulta but haven't seen tee brand anywhere else. it's my all time favorite highlight
My second time to watch bc I didn't take notes first time. My phone has a list of just Jessica things I'm going to pick up, or already have. You've saved me a lot, & I have the best products! You really do the greatest videos. Always spot on, valuable content. You work to put together your videos, too, much more than some. You & Emily Noel. Always dependable, and very enjoyable & entertaining! I just love you! Thank you! ❤️
I love you Jess!! You are so not pretentious - you keep it real for us, and that's so important to me! Have you ever used any of the BH Cosmetics products? I have quite a few of their products and they are really good, and very affordable. Would love if you could do a video on their products!! 💜💙
Ok.. just finished watching & I gotta say I am really happy the drugstore dupes lasted as long as the high-end cause without you I'm not sure I would've learned that! I can't thank you enough for doing these kind of videos cause I sure can't (& won't) spend that kinda money on those! I believe these cosmetic companies have sister companies that market the same products under a different name. Some of us just can't spend that kind of money to root them out! I love when you take us with you! I want to see more of products in real daylight GAWD I wish I was young again & had so many fun choises! Much love & success to you sweetheart!❤😘
I was able to guess which side was high-end right away. Your cheekbone looks more defined, and your eye looks brighter. just generally more polished on the high-end side.
Everyone of these videos that I watch, the highlight always gives away which is high-end for me. High end highlighters are always smoother and prettier under youtuber lights.
Zabrena mentioned a dupe for Viseart.. Beauty Treats in Natural matte. It's $2 at FiveBelow and it is AMAZING!!! Looks exactly the same and blends beautifully!
The Jesse's Girl liquid liner is another dupe for KVD Trooper that many actually prefer. It's available online & @ Rite-Aid, has a similar brush tip & is ~$6.
Sunfish OutOfWater I too prefer the Jesse's Girl. For me, it's as a dupe for the Stila because they actually have several shades, including brown. The Nyx only offers black.
The dupe side of your face looks better than the high end side.. both look great of course, but the dupe side a bit more natural in my opinion.. I'm buying all of the dupe products today lol..
Great video, Jessica! I just tried the Epic Ink liner for the first time yesterday and TOTALLY agree! I was shocked!! Also agree on the Essence mascara. I'll have to try all of the others. Thanks for sharing!
When you mentioned the Nyx eyeliner I was like YES!!! I had the SAME experience w the KVD, dried out quick, but my epic ink I love it so much. I've recommended it to everyone I know
I can't believe she said that the hard candy palette is a dupe for viseart😂 viseart is like the highest quality, Stephanie Nicole made a really informative video about them. I'm all for dupes but idk I feel like some "dupes" are bs.
Rosie Baker talc is not a bad ingredient? What matters is how the shadow is pressed. Shadows at every price and every quality have talc. Do some research lmao cmon
Alyssa it's a filler. In a high end product the first ingredient shouldn't be filler. I use Tarte Amazonian clay palettes and they are highly pigmented and don't have filler as a top ingredient (and it's nowhere near $80)
Tara Cullen yes talc is a filler but that doesn't mean it's a low quality product. The quality has a lot to do with the % of pigment and how it is pressed. I encourage you to watch Stephanie Nicole's review of the subculture palette. She discusses ingredients, and she is credible because she herself works in the pro beauty industry on the manufacturing side.
Alyssa...totally agree. The Viseart palette is my favorite along with KVD Shade and Light. There's no palette high end that comes close to this amazing quality, let alone in the drugstore. Dupes are fine, esp if the original is too expensive for some people but, lets be real, Hard Candy is not that great of a brand. I feel like WnW eyeshadows are wayyy better for drugstore prices. Even NYX has great eyeshadows although, a little on the highend for drugstore.
It's "...less than half" THANK YOU for saying it correctly! You are the first person I have heard that has. I'm not OCD about a ton of stuff but grammar is a soft spot for sure!! 😂😂😂😩 Love your videos! ❤️
Hi Michelle! I don't mean to be a stickler about things and I know you meant no harm but saying you are "OCD" about some small common thing like grammar is insensitive to people who actually have Obsessive Compulsive disorder and creates a damaging stigma and misinformation around the disorder itself. For example, imagine someone saying there are so "schizophrenic" or "autistic" about something small when they are diagnosed with neither. I am diagnosed with OCD and it is very life-ruining for me and sometimes keeps me in my room for days and weeks at a time because I feel I cannot go outdoors or interact with anyone (including my family). When my symptoms are more severe, I feel I must shower over 15 times a day to and dig holes in my skin and face for hours at a time. OCD is not just some common nitpicking about grammar or liking to be organized. Thank you for reading this 💙
I always enjoy Jessica's videos! Most of the dupes she recommends that I buy are spot-on. I have come upon one exception though. It is theWet N Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Lipstick. I used it one day and my lips were dried out from the moment I put it on. I felt like I was in the Sahara Desert. I wound up taking it back to the store even though the product itself says that it's not drying, I totally disagree. Keep your receipt if you decide to try it
laura gellar diamond dust highlighter is also iridescent-ish two tone. its pinky/ white. so stunning like the becca one she talked about. It's still pricey but gorgeous.
Omg how do you not have 4 million followers?? You speak intelligently and it's obvious that you care about what you do. I found you by accident but I am so thankful I did! My dupes are: the Milani eye primer instead of smashbox, the rimmel stay matte instead of smashbox. I know I have others I can't think of but those are a couple I use all the time.
$42 for that Smashbox primer!?!? i better be able to prime my walls with it too
Carrie Aubin 🤣

Carrie Aubin they aren't even good lol

Carrie Aubin 😂😂😂
I don't normally comment, but I had to say....I absolutely love how descriptive and thoughtful you are! 😍 You and EmilyNoel are my favorite reviewers! Love you Jessica! 😘
Bria Haynes ya I agree they don't push everything they try on u.
Bria Haynes those are my top 2 too!!!
Bria Haynes agreed :)
Yes! My two favorites on UA-cam! They should do a collab sometime!
Yes. I even thought of Emily when she mentioned the Bobbi brown undereye concealer and the Pixi one since I've seen Emily mention both in the same video as being similar . (As well as the benefit one she loves of course!)
The elf comes with 0.04oz and the Laura Mercier comes with 0.14oz. Essentially, you could buy 4 of the elf powder, have 0.16oz and only pay $12. Way to go ELF!
Tabitha K I do love that elf powder
Tabitha K I've used it everyday under my eyes for a year and I'm not even half way done with it
I absolutely love the Elf under eye setting powder! I have been using the same container since December and am not even halfway through. I have zero creasing when I use this. Great dupe!
Tabitha K amazing !
For some reason the second elf powder I bought has glitter in it, I don't know if this is normal?
Do a back to school teacher face! Would love to see your day to day looks. I'm a fifth grade teacher also. I don't have time to reapply anything during the day and would love to see your tips!
straberri1979 what's that about!!
That's a great idea!
straberri1979 I'm an art teacher and I hardly have time to reapply makeup. I always have some sort of bold look cause it's something I enjoy and it's like art! That's a great idea!
I like this this idea!

Lauren S yessss
I honestly think the side you used the cheaper dups on looks way better :)
TranceDivine same
TranceDivine high-end sidr looks way less harsh
TranceDivine it's also her brow shape on both eyes are totally diff the low end said brow is shaped way better that's the only reason it looks better
Melissa Luna it's just the brow shape an being it's a little darker making it look better, good brows do wonders haha
I think the low end shadows looks way better not harsh at all just warmer and it shows more.
I LOVe your genuine excitement for makeup
Sonia Kashuk has a dupe for the Viseart palette and it's pretty much a replica. It's called Eye On Neutral Matte-02 and it's seriously one of my staple palettes!
MioMaiaRaia yeah I passed on the Viseart too, for me its similar to the KVD one
Love the SK dupe but I wish the orange was more vibrant! xx
Still more expensive
Beauty treats has a pallette identical to the viseart pallette for only $2!!!!! And it's extremely pigmented I found it at a five Below store but they have it online to but I'm not how much is online
PRO TIP: to make liquid lipstick way less drying, put a thin layer of face oil or coconut oil on the lips while you're doing the rest of your makeup, then apply the lipstick! It will go on SO buttery, stay on longer, and look flawless! Wet N' Wild is my fav, especially the color "Rebel Rose" It's the perfect nude! ♥️
Walgreens has No. 7 too. Some stores are also starting to carry NYX
Thank you for the Kat Von D dupes!! Praise you woman! 😫
Boots, which runs No.7 formed a parent company alliance with Walgreens ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walgreens_Boots_Alliance ) so No.7 is basically now Walgreens' house-brand. It's nuts!

happyfacefries boots is actually owned by a Boots-Walgreen partnership but i guess in the States they're selling their products elsewhere. its so unfair that we aren't getting all the great US products!!
SuperReezyBaby Target carries No 7
I was BLOWN AWAY when she revealed which side was the drugstore! I genuinely thought the drugstore side was the high end side! Especially when it came to the bronzer, blush, and liquid lipstick!!!
Please do a video on your current skincare routine!
I got it wrong as to which side was which low/high. I thought the cheaper side looked a touch bettet
Me too !!!!
Thank you for being so thorough!! Not only talking about the dupes, but showing them side by side, testing application, and wear time. Jessica is the best!!!
That red lip though!
Ashley Sherrick I absolutely love when she wears a red lip.
Jessica, can you review please LA Girl HD Pro Coverage Foundation?
Christina Merry I love it!! I just wish it lasted longer.
I used to have oily skin and know because of a treatment my skin is very dry and that foundation saved my life. I find that it looks better after like an hour of use because thats when stops looking cakey. I love it and I really recommend it. However, if you have oily skin stay away from it. 😘
that is my go-to
Christina Merry i had to buy 3 back ups for that! my fav!
Whats LA Girl?
There's a dupe for the Viseart palette you can get from 5 Below, from a company called BeautyTreats - dead on dupe and I like the formula better.
Thank you for not only finding these dupes, but for wearing them side-by-side AND especially showing us how they wear in real life. So many times I've owned things people say are dupes, but in my experience the lasting power isn't even close to other products they're being compared to and in the long run I end up so frustrated I just give them away. This kind of video is so helpful and valuable. You rock!
No7 is owned by Walgreens, so if you're looking for a product by them and you can't find it in Target or Ulta, try them
I've gotten No7 products from ulta; I ordered it online though.
whitefrost2012 I thought No'7 was owned by Boots. Also if so, why would they sell them at Target?
happyfacefries No7 is from Boots, and Boots is owned by Walgreens. I'm assuming it's sold in multiple stores to maximize profit, because Soap & Glory is owned by Walgreens as well, and it's sold in multiple places as well
whitefrost2012 Boots was their own at least at one time and it's a UK drugstore, so really it is Boots. the Walgreens must have a parent company because Walgreens would not be licencing their product for another store like Target or Ulta.

+Safika Aisyah thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are becoming my favorite youtuber! I love that you do so many drugstore videos and give us all these dupes. You give really good descriptions of the products and never fail to impress me.
Beauty Treats makes almost perfect dupes for the Viseart pallets.
Katy May LA Girl too
Judy girl which one? Are you talking about LA colors or la girl?
Shayri Garg she clearly said LA Girl
Katy May Whoops my bad. LA Colors from Dollar General
I found your channel maybe a month ago. Watched one video. For the last three days ive watched nothing but your videos. You are so down to earth honest and I love your channel. Just kudos girl
Can you do a video recommending your favorite beauty vloggers that you like to watch?
Hannah Guerrero probably not a good idea because people always think they should choose your friends or who you like.
You always put my in such a good mood Jessica. You've been one of my favorite youtubers for such a long time. Keep doing what you do!!
The only difference I could really see is the cheek products, which is how I guessed correctly which was high end.
Felisha Albert I agree, I could only tell because of the highlighter; because the drugstore concealer looked better as her dark circles showed through the high end side. It's because I don't have much faith in Bobbi Brown that I immediately guessed it was high end.
Felisha Albert I actually think that the cheeks on drugstore side looks better than the high end one. It seems better blended, blush and bronzer wise.
Felisha Albert i think it's lighting issue....there is a shadow on her drugstore side as seen on the inner eye- top of bridge of nose. I just think with balanced lighting it would be equal
Felisha Albert Same. The more prominent highlight tipped me off.
Best dupe video I've ever seen on youtube, already a fan of your videos but this one was great. The "how they wear all day" portion was great because sometimes make up swatches/applies the same, but then you wonder how it looks at the end of the day. You covered all of this!
I don't know if it's a dupe because I've never used the Bobbi brown corrector but I use the Nyx under eye peach corrector and I really like it.
i just have to say i really appreciate your videos you are very witty and have great manners, you are a role model and i could watch you all day and recommend to all ages! when i worked in sephora i felt confident to let people know i watch you! you get straight to the point and very knowledgeable and seem like you put a lot of work into this, needless to say i hope youtube pays you well and you keep up the great work girly
I have the Bobbie Brown corrector and I have the Pixi.. I picked up the NYX Dark Concealer and it is more emoliant then the Pixi.. Pixi feels dryer to me.. anyway I love the BB and the NYX much better..
Susan J. D'Amico I actually don't like the NYX one because while the color is nice, it's too emollient for my skin and creases almost immediately. Crazy how some products work totally different for some people.
Honestly your high end side shows more dark circle than your drug store side, not sure if it's the camera or shade issue with the two concealers but drug store side look better : )
MsLindaY I think because the pixi corrector had a bit more color to it :) I love their products, plus they're creulty free!
MsLindaY . Agree with your observation.
I think it was the high end powder actually! Because it went kinda blue once she put that on I noticed.
Jessica, this look is SOOO gorgeous!
I’ve really never seen you wear this type of makeup look and you look absolutely stunning as always!
Thanks so much for sharing!💕
L'Oreal LASH PARADISE is THEEEE BEST...ever.
Amen,Vicki!!! I havent touched my Superhero mascara since buying the lash paradise!! I'm obsessed!!
Vicki Noble It doesn't work for me ! I hunted and hunted for it . Really bummed me out!
Tracy Frederick really thats interesting, may I ask why? What formula did you use reg or waterproof?
LulyTubee I got both. I think it's more my expectations than anything. I like my lashes extra anyway.
Tracy Frederick do you have any lavender or cedar wood oil? I use
both in all my mascaras because they supposedly help with lash growth/inhibiting your lashes from falling out. However, one of the best uses I've found is that with dryer formulas (and lash paradise is quite dry right out of the tube), it thins the formula ever
So slightly. Give it a try- just one or two drops!
"No cheating" lol... Jessica is so sweet! It's easy to tell she is a teacher. She cracks me up. 💕
Do you think that 15$ is too much for a drugstore primer? I feel like the price lines are blurring a bit. I am not judging just wondering opinions?
I agree. Fortunately you can always get the drugstore versions on sale regularly while the high end rarely does.
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 you should see the prices in Australia! I did a comparison the other day and L'Oréal Miss Manga Mascara was $21.95 AUD and Tarte Gifted mascara was $29.00 AUD from Sephora! I've decided, as a result, not to use the term affordable makeup anymore.
Tilikum1983 Tilikum1983 Drigstore prices seem to be creeping higher and higher... I do use coupons quite often and can get some great deals that way.
so very true the prices here in Australia are crazy, even Elf is three times the price and some brands up to 4 or 5 times. it is truly ridiculous and so unfair
Vic_ VB I agree! I have learned to stack my coupons , weekly deals and Extra Bucks to buy drugstore brands from CVS. Otherwise, it ain't gonna fly.
Your videos make me so happy. I find it so admirable that you work a full time job along with making these videos! Love your honesty and transparency! Also I can't wait to see a house tour! 😍
Some times the "copy cat" palettes are from parent companies. So if say you found a palette from L'oriel that is pretty much a knock off of Urban Decay, L'oriel is actually the parent company of UD. There are others like that, but I'm not exactly sure at the moment who all is the parent company of who.
I really love the viseart vs hard candy dupe! Even though the colors are not the same, they are pretty similar. Also love your makeup look! When you mentioned, Essence and eyeliner I thought of the Essence superfine eyeliner pen(the non waterproof one). It is $3-4 and its like the KVD liner. It may smudge faster but are really similar.
beauty treats, $5.00 dope for that viseart zabreena has the comparison video
I like these videos but I like watching you because you are just so natural and that is refreshing. Thank you and God Bless
hi jessica,would you please do a review about milani baked blush?because in my country,that blush just become a huge boom among the woman and i'm very curious about it and you're the beauty gurus that i trust the most..btw,great review as always..😍😍
Dewi Hapsari They are stunning! I have 3 of them & love them! Luminso is one of Kathleen Lights fav blushes!
Dewi Hapsari luminoso is my favorite shade in that line & I love that formula more than all of my high end blushes
hi,thank you so much for your reply..i think i'm going to buy the shade luminoso and dolce pink since i've heard of many beauty gurus review about it,so curious!!..thank you girls! xoxo
hi sarah,thank you for your reply..i cannot wait to buy the shade luminoso and dolce pink,i heard the dolce pink is similar with nars orgasm,is that true??thanks again girls!! xo
Dewi Hapsari. dolce pink looks nothing like Orgasm but ...dolce pink is just pink where orgasmn is peach toned pink
I was wicked happy with this video and you looked so beautiful in natural lighting. you have a Instagram?
She does. It is jambeauty89 I believe.
Definitely feel the drugstore side looks better and lasted longer. And I have to say, Thank you, Thank you, Thank for doing updates without filter. It has given me perspective on my own make up look and trying to achieve perfect flawlessness
I love your Dupe videos. Being in Canada though,NYX is at least $5 more per item so kinda takes some of the fun out of drugstore finds.
Love your look today 😎
Have you tried the nyx dark circle corrector? It is pretty good, a little less orange than the pixi one. And not too dense, blends really good.
I legitimately think the drug store side looks better.
I love this! The high end vs. drugstore caption at the bottom of the video was a nice touch 💕💕💕
I don't see the Models Own highlighter at all. but that Becca one is everything ❤❤
Congrats on 400 K, you're one of my favorite beauty vloggers, even though my skin tone is way darker than yours. You make very good recommendations on what to buy and what not to buy.
I cannot get any color payout from the Hard Candy palettes. I've stopped spending money on them.
Heather Pier I consider them to be just a trash brand now. kind of sad since they were high end at one time
happyfacefries I agree, they are total crap products now. I can't make any of their products work so I stopped purchasing them entirely
happyfacefries they were high end?? I had no idea
Helen Mejia lol, yeah, back in the 90s, then they went away and Walmart must have bought them
I bought that Hard Candy pallet and got zero color payoff. It was so bad I threw the pallet in the trash. I've never been as disappointed with any makeup purchase.
YESSS that NYX liner is amazing, completely blew me away when I bought it last week. I didn't think a liquid liner pen could be so smooth, opaque, and easy to apply. And another big YES to the Essence Princess Lash, I've been using is for a while now and it never disappoints, I recommend it to anyone who wants amazing volume but is sick of paying over $20 for high end mascaras.
This video is for me because I'm a drugstore addict who's too stingy to buy a 30 something dollar primer 😂
Yay! Glad to see you did check-ins for wear time. That is the make or break for differences between high end/mid range and drugstore
I appreciate it when brands are not duping the exact same colors. To me
makeup revolution is all about plagiarism and I hate that when the product was completely copied in a cheaper way. I don't know why they are not sued yet.
Ziwei He formula changes.
it's legal to copy concepts in fashion, they just can't make the packaging/formula exactly the same.
Yes!!! I absolutely LOVE that NYX liner! I replaced my Kat Von D liner with it and I like it better. No one believes me when I tell them how great it is!
I love the essence mascara, but can the packaging get any tackier?
ivanete roark Well its a cheap brand like Wet n Wild or NYC, its tailored to young girls just getting into makeup who don't have money for nice products with classy packaging.
I actually love the packaging lmao. You should look at wet n wild lash renegade (sp?) It's bulky and unnecessary. I hate it, but the mascara is so good!
Jessica, i adore your videos!!!!! I love even more how your husband loves you in your moo moo!! My grandmother bought me some and my husband loves when i wear mine too!!!! Lol i had to rewind that piece like four times to hear you say it because it made my life, lmbo!! You're, hands down, in my top three favorite youtubers!!!
Jessica, I really need to clean my house. But I need to see your video before! xD
Helena, LOL! I'm in the same situation!
The ELF dew stick that I bought on your recommendation is a dupe for the Clinique highlighter chubby stick. And it's also a cruelty free alternative
I love love these videos!! For the life of me I cannot find a dupe for the Too faced Sweet Tea Bronzer and the Nars Blush in Torrid!!Please if you have any suggestions, I'd love to know!!!
LesR Kew A dupe for Nars Torrid is Loreal in Rosewood. and for the Sweet Tea bronzer, you could try the Physicians Formula butter bronzer in light. I googled it. 😉
LesR Kew I've heard that makeup revolution has a dupe for the Too Faced Sweet Tea Bronzer!! Idk what the name is though
Jessica Garcia I recently bought a Revolution highlighter and it is a straight dupe for the too faced love light highlighter. I got it at Ulta but haven't seen tee brand anywhere else. it's my all time favorite highlight
My second time to watch bc I didn't take notes first time. My phone has a list of just Jessica things I'm going to pick up, or already have. You've saved me a lot, & I have the best products! You really do the greatest videos. Always spot on, valuable content. You work to put together your videos, too, much more than some. You & Emily Noel. Always dependable, and very enjoyable & entertaining! I just love you! Thank you! ❤️
who else loves the drugstore side better
I love you Jess!! You are so not pretentious - you keep it real for us, and that's so important to me! Have you ever used any of the BH Cosmetics products? I have quite a few of their products and they are really good, and very affordable. Would love if you could do a video on their products!! 💜💙
Love these dupes! Viseart said that it's pronounced "viz - eee- art" in a Stephanie Nicole video. :)
Talacocheta no, they said it was Vize-Art
Ok.. just finished watching & I gotta say I am really happy the drugstore dupes lasted as long as the high-end cause without you I'm not sure I would've learned that! I can't thank you enough for doing these kind of videos cause I sure can't (& won't) spend that kinda money on those! I believe these cosmetic companies have sister companies that market the same products under a different name. Some of us just can't spend that kind of money to root them out! I love when you take us with you! I want to see more of products in real daylight GAWD I wish I was young again & had so many fun choises! Much love & success to you sweetheart!❤😘
I was able to guess which side was high-end right away. Your cheekbone looks more defined, and your eye looks brighter. just generally more polished on the high-end side.
Amber Hays me too! Also you can see her dark circle on the left ( our right). I mean I love the pixi corrector but the Bobby Brown is A~maz~ing!!
Amber Hays Agree
also her highlight is glowing more on the high end side
I figured it based on her cheekbones too, it doesn't look she has much on from our right side, where as our left her face pops more.
jpmoral1 Her highlighter is how i could tell too. The drugstore side has less pigment.
Everyone of these videos that I watch, the highlight always gives away which is high-end for me. High end highlighters are always smoother and prettier under youtuber lights.
Zabrena mentioned a dupe for Viseart.. Beauty Treats in Natural matte. It's $2 at FiveBelow and it is AMAZING!!! Looks exactly the same and blends beautifully!
Marie-Claire Tewey the only bad thing is that I can't find it anywhere 😩
Girl, check beautyjoint, they have all things beauty treats
Jess, I am wearing the Essence Lash Princess today and thank you so much for recommending it in a previous video. I love it!
The Jesse's Girl liquid liner is another dupe for KVD Trooper that many actually prefer. It's available online & @ Rite-Aid, has a similar brush tip & is ~$6.
Sunfish OutOfWater I too prefer the Jesse's Girl. For me, it's as a dupe for the Stila because they actually have several shades, including brown. The Nyx only offers black.
I cannot remember if I've thanked you for touting the Stila liquid eyeliner. You were not wrong, girl, it stays perfect all day/night 🙌❤️
the only difference I can detect is the highlight, and I prefer the models own :)
megan walter I agree about the highlighter being the only noticeable difference...except I really like that Becca. I love an "in your face" glow!
The camera quality of this video is STELLAR. I can see everything on her face so well.. love it!!!
I could tell that left was high end bc the brow color is more cool toned, drugstore brow products tend to be warm toned.
Hi Jessica, Just a heads up, your link for the Essence Princess mascara leads to the NYX Epic Ink liner.
The dupe side of your face looks better than the high end side.. both look great of course, but the dupe side a bit more natural in my opinion.. I'm buying all of the dupe products today lol..
Great video, Jessica! I just tried the Epic Ink liner for the first time yesterday and TOTALLY agree! I was shocked!! Also agree on the Essence mascara. I'll have to try all of the others. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, you got SO many mentions in the comments of my 5 Reasons Why HUGE Beauty Influencers Have Made it On UA-cam video. You are so loved!!!!
+Jen Luvs Reviews oh WOW! I will check it out. Love you! My husband knows you as "the girl who does the makeup news" haha ❤️❤️ I love it!
Not sure if intended, but some of your dupes are cruelty free options for those non cruelty free brands 👌🏻
I have tried the essence mascara.. It was awful for me. Total clumps, wet tar mess. But you mentioned airing it out.. Maybe I will have to try that!
Who else think she and kathleen lights look alike?:O
Krizza Dilla 100% agreement!
Kristjana Diljá nope.
like cousins or something
I think they have similar facial structure.
No.. kathleen is much cuter...
When you mentioned the Nyx eyeliner I was like YES!!! I had the SAME experience w the KVD, dried out quick, but my epic ink I love it so much. I've recommended it to everyone I know
I can't believe she said that the hard candy palette is a dupe for viseart😂 viseart is like the highest quality, Stephanie Nicole made a really informative video about them. I'm all for dupes but idk I feel like some "dupes" are bs.
Rosie Baker talc is not a bad ingredient? What matters is how the shadow is pressed. Shadows at every price and every quality have talc. Do some research lmao cmon
Alyssa it's a filler. In a high end product the first ingredient shouldn't be filler.
I use Tarte Amazonian clay palettes and they are highly pigmented and don't have filler as a top ingredient (and it's nowhere near $80)
Tara Cullen yes talc is a filler but that doesn't mean it's a low quality product. The quality has a lot to do with the % of pigment and how it is pressed. I encourage you to watch Stephanie Nicole's review of the subculture palette. She discusses ingredients, and she is credible because she herself works in the pro beauty industry on the manufacturing side.
Alyssa...totally agree. The Viseart palette is my favorite along with KVD Shade and Light. There's no palette high end that comes close to this amazing quality, let alone in the drugstore.
Dupes are fine, esp if the original is too expensive for some people but, lets be real, Hard Candy is not that great of a brand. I feel like WnW eyeshadows are wayyy better for drugstore prices. Even NYX has great eyeshadows although, a little on the highend for drugstore.
You have such a genuine personality and I love your channel! 💋
Right side drugstore- left high end?!😍🤔
Great video! What brush did you use to apply the blush and bronzers?
It's "...less than half" THANK YOU for saying it correctly! You are the first person I have heard that has. I'm not OCD about a ton of stuff but grammar is a soft spot for sure!! 😂😂😂😩 Love your videos! ❤️
Hi Michelle! I don't mean to be a stickler about things and I know you meant no harm but saying you are "OCD" about some small common thing like grammar is insensitive to people who actually have Obsessive Compulsive disorder and creates a damaging stigma and misinformation around the disorder itself. For example, imagine someone saying there are so "schizophrenic" or "autistic" about something small when they are diagnosed with neither. I am diagnosed with OCD and it is very life-ruining for me and sometimes keeps me in my room for days and weeks at a time because I feel I cannot go outdoors or interact with anyone (including my family). When my symptoms are more severe, I feel I must shower over 15 times a day to and dig holes in my skin and face for hours at a time. OCD is not just some common nitpicking about grammar or liking to be organized. Thank you for reading this 💙
the highlighter dupe alone made the video worth it! Great job!
The drugstore side looked way better, and it was really pigmented
I always enjoy Jessica's videos! Most of the dupes she recommends that I buy are spot-on. I have come upon one exception though. It is theWet N Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Lipstick. I used it one day and my lips were dried out from the moment I put it on. I felt like I was in the Sahara Desert. I wound up taking it back to the store even though the product itself says that it's not drying, I totally disagree. Keep your receipt if you decide to try it
Holosexuals be coming at u that highlighter isn't holo girl it's iridescent
Brianna Gomez aha same when she said it was holo I cringed so hard
omg I'm so happy you talked about the it cosmetics mascara it's my all time favorite and I haven't heard anyone else talk about it

laura gellar diamond dust highlighter is also iridescent-ish two tone. its pinky/ white. so stunning like the becca one she talked about. It's still pricey but gorgeous.
