    I mean it might be a little bit uncreative in beauty influencers eyes but Elf is showing us that good quality (sometimes better than the OG) can be affordable for everyone. And on top of that Elf is cruelty free which most of the high end brands they’re duping sadly aren’t.

      Fully agree. I also just want to add that i find it a little strange/hypocritical how much love elf is getting for duping while revolution got so much heat for it.

      @veggielovinaccountant 2 місяці тому +1

      @@judeli9237 generally speaking, being vegan means no animal cruelty. It does not mean a “clean” or nontoxic environment. We literally strive to just use products, or cosmetics in this case, that have no animal products in them or have been tested on animals. That is the kicker for many of us. Lots of brands will not use animal products in their formulas but will test on animals before selling to market.

    The only way I can afford the new “ viral” products is through dupes. So, yes I appreciate them and I depend on your reviews 😊

  • @user-lf5oz9ki8z
    @user-lf5oz9ki8z 4 місяці тому +218

    At 53 years of age, I really don't care about all the trends in makeup. I love watching you younger folks play with the makeup, try out the trends, and just have fun, but unless I believe a trend will actually enhance my own look, I don't bother jumping on board. I DO love the product reviews, especially the really good ones where someone reviews day-long or even week-long wear, and most definitely how it wears on mature skin like mine. (Here's a hint... If a product looks really good on mature skin, it will definitely look good on younger skin.) As for dupes, I have mixed feelings. I know the original creator, usually a high-end brand, paid for all fo the R & D and deserves to recoup that, but I also believe that some/many of these high-end brands are grossly overpriced for what you get (Tom Ford, I'm definitely looking at you!). We all deserve affordable beauty! So yes, I will often buy the dupe before the original just to save myself some money. If the dupe looks great, I'll stick with it. If the dupe just doesn't quite cut it, I may test out the original. Foundation and powder are especially challening for my mature skin, so that's the one exception to my rule. I'll usually splurge on the high-end brand first, especially since I can get color matched. It's so hard to get the right shade from the drugstore.

      @fabhuntress9813 4 місяці тому +18

      I could not agree with you more! I love watching trends, but I have spent years making my 'perfect' look, something I feel enhances my natural features. It takes something groundbreaking to change up my techniques, not products❤

    • @annenewcomer6626
      @annenewcomer6626 4 місяці тому +10

      Agree with your remark on higher end foundation. Finding the right shade and formula is very important to me. Hard to find shades that are not too yellow at the drug store. I mostly stay with my tried and true. I did order a Westman Atelier stick foundation in the correct shade (yeah for that).

    • @viannam5483
      @viannam5483 4 місяці тому +8

      Agree with everything you say ( I am also a mature gal who wears make-up0. My crystal ball says a lot of cosmetic companies will put themselves right out of business in the near future. There is a price-point at which the consumer will no longer feel like experimenting knowing there's a 50/50 chance the product will end up in the trash.

      Amen! I will be turning 53 next Saturday, and I can relate to everything you said. I am on my 31st year teaching and have a husband and two daughters in their 20s. I cannot afford to buy high-end products unless it is a special occasion or release that I feel like I should treat myself too. That is few and far between. I am not setting out to impress anyone except myself, and I have worked so hard over the past year to raise myself if I can do that by using affordable priced products and still a few of us though, I look 1 million bucks then I have reached my goal. I cannot wait to use birthday gift cards for Ulta and try out perhaps a full face of ELF products, praying that I look as fabulous as dear Allie does! ❤❤

      I agree with you 110%!! Mature skin girls, 50 y.o. like me, have things we will buy that's pricey (i.e. foundation, powders, etc.). I don't care about a trend. I just want it to work. E.L.F. is a great brand & I love most everything they put out. I'm not gonna pay a war price for something that's drug store pricing, *THAT WORKS* !! I can't afford all these *TRENDS* !! TBH.

    After watching your video, I found out that Bare minerals is discontinuing, my holy Grail foundation! What a shock, and the sudden fear that I was going to have to be on the search again for something that matches and works equally as well stressed me out. We happen to drive by Ulta and stopped so I could grab something really quick. since I had just seen your video, I pushed the ELF section and zeroed in on the foundation. Had never tried it before but figured what did I have to lose. Did a quick shade match and decided to get the halo glow to use instead of the Bare minerals primer I generally use. Waited until the weekend to try it and so far I am blown away. It is not sticky, greasy, does not pill on my face or rub off. The shade matched perfectly, and the blush, bronzer, and translucent powder went on smoothly overtop. To say I am pleased as an understatement! For only six dollars I could get six of these for what it cost me to buy one of my holy Grail! I also got two of the new lip plumper that are dupes for the tarte Maracuja lip plumper. Not quite as sold on these as they were super soft and chunks came off on my lips instead of gliding across like the Tarte plumper. I am going to try them several more times to see if by chance it gets better. What do you think about them? Thank you so much for this video because now I want to purchase more.ELF products and try doing a whole face with them.❤❤ Love you, dear Allie!!!

Dollar tree, dollar general,family dollar, Ollie's, and a couple times a year I ball out in Walmart lol and kind of stock up for the year, but even then I stick with Venus razors, retinol, good hair care, bath products, skin care vit.

    It's like Zara vs high end brands... questionable? Yes. But I'm grateful these options exist!

    As long as there is super expensive high end makeup there will be a place for affordable dupes. I see your point as a content creator that it can seem redundant at times. But as a social worker on a fixed income ELF is such a go to for me now. As much as I would love to buy the original high ends (sometimes) I just can't justify the cost a lot of the time. And as others have mentioned I also love that this is a cruelty free option at the drugstore. It's been really interesting though watching ELF evolve over the years--I used to mostly just look to them for cheaper brushes but now I would say they are one of the strongest drugstore lines.
    Also they have a new tubing mascara that is said to be a dupe for Thrive! Haven't been able to get it yet but heard good things so far.

    I usually buy the dupe (especially elf’s) if I’m interested in the original product but don’t necessarily want to spend the money if I may not like it… I’ll look into reviews on the dupe to see the feedback and if it really is worth getting. IF I like it, I may try the original or sometimes I just stick with the dupe. If it’s a product that I think I’ll enjoy right off the bat, I’ll just get the original. It doesn’t bother me that companies like elf are really only focused on the dupes especially if they’re good at it!

    I cannot afford high end. I use what works on my oily mature skin. The reviews are what help me. I tried some of the elf products due to reviews for my skin type and they worked well on me. If they are a dupe it doesn't matter because I haven't used the other product. I am glad for the review so thank you.😊

    Hi Allie, I like elf products, dupes can save you money, however at times prices for dupes are creeping up higher ,close to the high end price points, especially in Australia with elf. I like your new lighting setting it give you a warm glow, I also like the check in future Allie,can you please do a in natural light look ,when it comes to foundation,it gives us a true effect. Love Katherine xoxo

    hi Allie, the new camera and lighting are on point! Also, I'm totally into the idea of dupes (though I've tried very few especially after doing a no-buy year for 2023)... I'm excited to try the new e.l.f. products now that I have a low-buy beauty budget this year. .. I'm curious how the mascara and blush wore thru the day.

  • @piperhanriot8978

    I hardly wore makeup in my 30's and 40's, however now in my early 50's and now going through menopause, I changed my skincare and makeup products, which in turn has got me more interested in makeup in general. I usually do some research, however I have bought and tried a few of the Elf products from your video and I do love them and I am happy to purchase a dupe, especially if the quality is just as good as the high end product and of course for the cost. With regard to foundation this is the only exception, as I do like to get the right colour for me and I am lazy when it comes to buying two cheaper ones in different colours and mixing them, so foundation is the one product that I would rather buy the high end one if the cheaper dupe does not have my skin colour.

    I'm about to go to college this year and for high school me starting out makeup for the first time a few years ago, e.l.f. is one of my most favorite drugstore brands and i love that they're duping so many high end brands. Its affordability gives so many of us who can't afford to splurge on so many high-end products access to high quality formulas. I'm on my third e.l.f. hydrating concealer i think going on my fourth, it's my holy grail as well as the halo glow liquid filter. e.l.f. is bae 😌

    • @navijha122
      @navijha122 4 місяці тому +1

      I will say tho, the only thing about dupes is if I want a high-end product and I get it, it seems e.l.f. comes out with the dupe for it very soon after so I'm like ughhh I spent so much money when I could've gotten the dupe instead! (It's okay tho still love e.l.f.)

    Thanks for testing these products. It's their new business model and it has taken their previously slumping sales to a much higher level. I'm personally not into specifically shopping for dupes because I have sensitive skin and am often afraid low-cost makeup will break me out. I have some e.l.f. makeup, but not a lot.

Funny because I just picked out some of Elf’s $2 lip liners you mentioned and I like them so far given how affordable they are!! Also, have to ask, what nail polish are you wearing in the video- I didn’t see it mentioned today 🤣

    @daisydee2368 4 місяці тому

    I’m so glad you posted this video! I have so many thoughts, I agree with you on the fact that they get more hyped because they are dupes. I think it does a disservice to the original product in most cases because sometimes they are better. Also, I agree with wanting more innovative products not every product line, having the same things. But some are just so much better and a better price point. Like the lip oils I will never stop using and the halo powder. But the blush and contour wands and the poreless primer are not for me.

    I love a dupe! And I love dupe videos. Personally, I don't know why anyone would spend a lot of money on any makeup product when there are so many good drugstore products. And you don't feel so bad buying more than one shade of something if the price is low. I am enjoying elf more and more. I also am hooked on that L'oreal Paris True Match Nude Serum Foundation. It truly doesn't settle into lines and wrinkles. Keep bringing it Allie !

      I will argue that usually buying affordable products could lead to being wasteful because it convinces you that you can buy one more or two more products, when really you don’t even need too because most likely you won’t even use it. Granted I’m not saying that’s the case for everyone that buys affordable products but that’s. usually what ends up happening, we live in a consumerism society, we have the tendency of buying more than we need but we do it anyways because it’s “ affordable “.
