Drugstore Makeup As Good As High End?

Hey Beauties!

Today we are talking about more affordable options - dupes! I'm going to show you some low-priced products which work the same as highly-priced high end makeup.

Firstly, I have some lip product dupes.
The first one is this Makeup Revolution lipstick in a shade Rebel With a Cause. The lipstick has a satin finish and it's a dark pinky purple shade - the same as Calvin Klein Delicious Luxury Creme Lipstick in Desire. Makeup Revolution has a tiny bit more purple in it so CK one looks a little bit more rosy, but you cannot really tell once it's on the lips. And the Makeup Revolution one is only 1£! (It is also said to be a dupe for MAC lipstick in the shade Rebel (how obvious), but I don't have this one, so I can't insert swatches). CK Lipstick is 8£ on Amazon.co.uk

Other lip product dupe is strickly a colour dupe. Catrice Colour Infusion Longlasting Lipstain in the shade Red & The City is a dupe for Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Balm in the shade Roomiest Rose (6). These are burgundy reds. Althouth colours are veery similar, formulas are not. Catrice lip product is a lipstain, which makes it more matte and longlasting, but it's quite drying on the lips. I don't recommend this if you have chapped or sensitive lips and the Clinique is actually moisturizing itself as it's a balm, however, it's quite pricy, so if you want to save some money you can check out the Catrice one. Catrice Longlasting Lipstain: 2£. Clinique Chubby Stick: 17£. (The one in the photo is a mini one).

The next dupe is 10 times cheaper than the high end product! That's a price difference! It's E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer and it's a dupe for Artistry Tinted Moisturizer. These have similar formulas, the Artistry one is a tiny bit lighter on the skin but they both look the same applied. E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer in the shade Ivory is similar to Artistry Tinted Moisturizer in Tint 2. E.L.F. Tinted Moisturizer: 3$ (around 2£). Artistry Tinted Moisturizer: 20£.

The last dupe is Makeup Revolution Iconic 1 for Urban Decay Naked palette. Makeup Revolution actually does more dupes (they have ones for UD Naked 2 and Naked 3 as well), where they make identical shades! The best thing about this is that the quality is the same as well! Makeup Revolution eyeshadows wear very nicely and they're longlasting. I'm sorry, but I don't have UD Naked anymore, so I can't insert picture as I don't want to use anyone elses, but here a link for the palette: http://www.urbandecay.co.uk/naked/naked-palettes/naked-palette. Makeup Revolution Iconic 1: 4£. Urban Decay Naked palette: 38£.

That's it for todays post. I really recommend trying these products if you wanted to get the more expensive option, but couldn't afford it! Please comment down below if you have anything to say! Maybe you have found your own dupes? Share them with everyone!

Bye!

The Best Affordable Makeup

Hello everyone!

Today I decided to talk about some very affordable and veery good quality products. This is a good way to save money, because these products do wonders but won't hurt your wallet. I've chosen some extra affordable products, which are one of the cheapest in the drugstore. Let's get started!

So the first product really worth mentioning is High Lights by Technic. This brand is not very popular or known, but one of the easiest way to get it is from fragrancedirect.co.uk (not promoting this website at all, I've just found some very good deals there haha). This gives you wet face look, it doesn't have any glitter or shimmer, it's just a beautiful sheen. You can even apply it before foundation or mix it in it to achieve that dewy face look. It has that nail polish applicator and is said to be a dupe for Benefit High Beam. Price: 2£.

The next thing I recommend is again super affordable and it's Essence Lip Liners. These are around 1£ each! They aren't the most long wearing, but they are very pigmented and the most important - doesn't dry out you lips! I often apply them all over my lips. I have them in 5 shades and they also have a classic red one in Femme Fatale, a white shade and a pink in Wish Me a Rose, which seemed a little bit too unnatural for me, so I didn't buy it. But love all the shades! (Look at the photo and guess which one is my favourite haha)

 For some reason, the formula in the shade Cute Pink is not as good as it's a little bit harder to apply and the pencil is not as smooth.

2015 Finds

Hello Beauty Lovers!

As the year is coming to an end and today is the last day of 2015 I thought I should recall on things which I've discovered and loved throughout 2015. This post is kind of monthly favourites but for a year - yearly favourites haha. I have some higher end and some drugstore products. I hope you enjoy!

So the first product which I found in 2015 and it would be a lot harder to live without now is PIXI Correction Concentrate in Brightening Peach. This saves my life! I have really dark undereyes because of sleep deprivation (it's really bad for you, please avoid it haha), but this concealer hides EVERYTHING. It conceals any blue-ish or purple-ish discoloration on your face. It's the best that I've tried and I really recommend you getting your hands on it. It's quite hard to get it, but it's worth it! Price: 14£.

Clinique as a brand. I've had only one product from Clinique before 2015 - a lipstick, which I loved, but I tried many more this year, including skin care and makeup and I loved every single product, so I won't get into details right now, but you'll definitely hear about Clinique on my blog in the future.

Mary - Lou Manizer by The Balm. I mentioned this in my last blog post, but I have to say it again - it is the best highlight that I've tried! It's so pigmented and it makes your face so glowy and illuminated. Love it! Price: 18£.

New Years Nails and Makeup

Hi Beauty Lovers!

As New Years is coming I've gone through my nail polish and makeup collection and I've chosen some things which I think would be perfect for the New Years Eve. New Years for me is glitter, sparkles, bright and bold colours and just doing something different. Of course, you don't have to go out of your comfort zone if you don't want to and I think you will find something useful in this blog post either way. I also have some very versatile products, so your makeup will be quick, easy and glamorous!

Firsly, some nail polish ideas:

Burgundy is always a great idea. I love wearing it in winter so New Years Eve is not an exception. I have this nice burgundy shade from Essie, which is called Shearling darling (love Essie's names!) and I have a matte option as well. It's Golden Rose Matte Nail Lacquer. I put the photo but mine doesn't have a name! I'm sorry for that, but it's just a redish burgundy. Essie nail polish is 8.5$ (or you can buy a limited amount of colours from fragrancedirect.co.uk for 3£) and the Golden Rose is about 4-5$. I have to say that the Golden Rose one chips faster than the Essie one.

I also think coppery bronze colours look cool. Make sure they have a sheen or glitter and you're good to go! This one is by Golden Rose in a shade 147.
 

 


 
Another great colour is dark grey. This particular one has tiny glitters in it so it makes it even more festive. It's from Astor, it's affordable and doesn't chip. That's all you need! This one is quite old formula, but you can find Astor nail polishes for about for 1-2£.

 Dark blues and greens also look very nice. Again, glitter and sheen makes it even more festive, but it's all your choice. These colours are from a lithuanian brand, so only lithuanians will be able to get their hands on it (by the way, these are super affordable and does not chip as you would expect), but Essie definitely has some colour dupes. For example, "Midnight Cami" (right) or "Stylenomics" (left).

The First Time

Hey Beauty Lovers!

I can't believe I'm finally starting a blog! This is my first time, but I've been thinking about this for such a long time, I've been accumulating all kinds of information about makeup and beauty so I hope you'll enjoy. So if you asked why I started this blog, I'd say that it's all because of my uncontrollabe obsession and unmanagable passion for makeup. I've been watching YouTube videos for ages and I can't stop.

So when it comes to my blog name - The White Beauty Fox - I can't explain how I thought of this name, because it kind of popped into my head. Anyways, it has a little bit of my personality in it - I was often called little fox when I was a child, probably because I've always been so curious. So initially I thought about naming my blog BeautyFox, but I added white, because white foxes are breathtaking and I love white - it's such a pure and modern colour for me - so I thought this name was more unique.

So my blog is going to be all about beauty, hair care, skin care, makeup, clothes and other girly things. If you come across my blog - please leave any requests and I'll be happy to write about anything that you're interested in!

See you soon!
