You’re gonna gag when you try my $16 dupe for a $46 Too Faced foundation – it’s longer-lasting & looks more natural
A BEAUTY lover has stunned many people after revealing an affordable dupe of Too Faced’s popular Born This Way foundation.
He showed how strikingly similar a $16 drugstore foundation looked on his face compared to the $46 makeup product.
Alessandro (@mualesandro) boasts over 1.1 million followers on TikTok, where he shares his honest opinion of beauty products.
He looked in good spirits as he revealed drugstore makeup that’s “better” than high-end.
“Girl, let me save you some coin and put you on to a drugstore foundation that’s better than your high-end fave,” he said.
“If Too Faced’s Born This Way has been your s**t since 2016, you’re going to f**king gag when you try Revlon’s Illuminance foundation.
“Just because Born This Way is three times the price, it doesn’t mean it’s better.
“Trust me b***h, the Revlon foundation not only looks more like skin but it’s also way more long-lasting.
“When you first apply them there’s not much of a difference but after you finish the rest of your makeup you can tell Born This Way is a little bit heavier.
“The Revlon foundation just melts right into your skin and doesn’t emphasize your texture.
“You can definitely tell outside in natural lighting that the Revlon side is smoother.
“And things just start going downhill for Born This Way as the day goes on.”
Too Faced’s Born This Way has a 4-star rating on Sephora, where it costs $46.
Target customers have given Revlon Illuminance Skin-Caring Foundation a 4.3-star rating.
It’s priced at just $15.99 and sold in a variety of colors.
Alessandro applied Too Faced’s foundation to the left side of his face and the Revlon foundation to the right side for comparison.
He kept the makeup products on his face for a full day to find out which one was the most long-lasting.
“It’s only been around four hours and you can already notice that the Revlon side is less oily,” he said.
“After nearly 11 hours, with no touch-ups, it becomes very clear that Revlon’s Illuminance foundation is f**king supreme.”
Almost 6,000 people liked the video and many people took to the comment section grateful for his review.
“You’re a lifesaver! I meant… money saver,” one person wrote.
