What Beauty Product Dupes Are Just As Good As The Real Thing?

Sometimes the $ version is better than the $$$.

Do you hate how expensive beauty products are? SAME! So in the interest of saving us all a little money, pls LMK what beauty product dupes you swear are just as good as the $$$$ version.

Some folks guarantee that Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water lifts makeup, dirt, and oil just as well as Bioderma.

Other people promise that Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer masks dark circles and reduces under-eye puffiness (because what is sleep?) just as well as Tarte Shape Tape.

Tons of reviewers rave that Essence Lash Princess Mascara holds a voluminous curl better than half a dozen high-end mascaras from Benefit, It Cosmetics, Thrive, Too Faced, and more!

OKOKOK now tell me about the beauty dupes you think everyone should know (as well as the pricier option that it's replacing) and why the budget pick is better than baller version (pictures welcome!!!). Your response may be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!
