People ask me what’s on my cheekbones – my drugstore makeup champion is better than Charlotte Tilbury
A BEAUTY lover has revealed the drugstore dupe that gives them an enviable glow.
They said the inexpensive buy is similar to a product from a high-end brand, but it works better.
Redditor opened up about the beauty find while commenting on a post about affordable dupes.
"I have a few drugstore champions - among my overwhelming luxury brands stash - but the one that I can truly say is a dupe because it really is clear whose footsteps they tried to follow is Elf Halo Glow Liquid Filter," they said.
"It's not a dead-on dupe, but to me, it's better than Charlotte Tilbury HFF," they continued.
The makeup item they were referring to is the brand's Hollywood Flawless Filter.
"It's much more a dupe for Auric Glow Lust which was also clearly inspired by the OG - Charlotte Tilbury HFF," they said.
They believed that both buys had surpassed the Charlotte Tilbury product.
"[They are] thicker, plushier in texture," they said.
And that wasn't all.

They explained how the dupes were also less metallic but more blurring.
"[They] work better mixed into and under foundation [and] also alone," they said.
Another feature also raised eyebrows - in a good way.
"[They] are subtler as a pointed highlighter but definitely still glowy," they explained.
"I had people who know makeup ask me what's on my cheekbones."
The affordable is available in 12 shades and sells for $14.
The glow-boosting buy is described as offering a "soft-focus" social filter effect.
It can be worn on its own, with foundation, under makeup, or even as a highlighter to "illuminate" the high points of your face - it's no wonder the Redditor had given it high marks.
The find is said to be ideal for dry, oily, and combination skin.
The dupe was certainly a deal compared to the that sells for $49.
The original poster added that they were also a fan of another makeup find - the Iconic London Radiance Booster.
While some people thought the item was a "dead-on" dupe for Auric Glow Lust, they had their own thoughts on the makeup matter.
"I feel that it's more in between Charlotte Tilbury HFF and Auric Glow Lust," they said.
Other beauty lovers shared which makeup finds had left them floored.
