With the popularity of the sport of duping (it truly has become like a sport for many) on the rise, it is important to understand the process of finding a quality dupe for the right price. When I first discovered what dupes were and how life changing they could be, I had the hardest time finding good dupes that I didn't want to immediately return. I am going to take you through a step by step of my fool proof process.


The formula that I have created to find a quality dupe you are bound to fall in love with consists of 4 easy steps. The steps go as follows:


4 Simple Steps to Find Dupes You Will Absolutely Fall in Love With:


1.) It can be as easy as googling the product you are in search of a dupe for


If you know the name of the product you are searching for, often times it is as easy as putting the item name into the Google search bar. From pressing "search," your screen will then populate with the real item but also other items similar to it. My favorite thing is to go to the "images" tab so then I can see a picture of the product, the website it comes from, and the price. This is a smart way to see and compare options already picked out for you in a sense.



2.) Save time and let else do the work the work for you


Using apps like "LikeToKnowIt," following pages on Instagram, or even reading blogs like this one take away the need for you to spend hours scrolling and searching online. Many of the dupes that you find through these resources are normally going to be recommended by the platform posting about them. This is a trustworthy and time saving tool to love yourself and your wallet.



3.) Regularly search and scroll


Some of the best dupes that I have found have happened by accident. In my free time I enjoy scrolling through websites like Amazon, Nasty Gal, Forever 21 and Misguided. All of these websites are known for having affordable products while staying up to date with the newest fashion or beauty trends. Just through mindlessly searching, clicking, and scrolling through their websites I stumble upon some amazing finds. For example, I would have never found my amazing joggers that serve as dupes for expensive joggers that are currently in style from brands like Nike, Adidas, and Brandy Melville. The joggers are from Misguided and I would have never of found them if it had not been for my midnight scrolling.

4.) When shopping at stores always keep your eyes peeled, you never know what you might stumble upon for the right price at Target or Walmart...


Affordable, everyday shopping stores such as Target and Walmart have recently been stepping up their game when it comes to fashion and beauty products. It is always a good idea to go through both their apparel and beauty sections because they recently have had some great finds. For example, both Walmart and Target sell an amazing dupe for the Laura Mercier translucent setting powder. The powder is around only $6.00 and works like a dream. The link to the powder from Target is: https://www.target.com/p/airspun-loose-face-powder-2-3oz/-/A-53750508

I promise you all, use these four simple steps and they will make the beginning of your journey to find amazing dupes that much easier. Share with me any dupes you find using this process, I love to hear from you all!
