A savvy shopper has shared eight beauty dupes available at Boots that could save you up to £250.

Deal hunter Eilish Stout-Cairns has recently shared her top picks from Boots of various budget-friendly alternatives of beloved luxury brands.

The switched-on consumer has rounded up eight beauty dupes for the likes of Charlotte Tilbury, Fenty, Benefit and more.

The member of the money-saving community LatestDeals.co.uk, took to Instagram to post her finds.

The reel is already proving popular with users by amassing more than 400,000 views in 24 hours.

Eilish said: “If you love luxury beauty but don’t love the price tag, dupes are the way to go. Lots of affordable brands offer similar alternatives to your favourite pricey products.

"Boots is a great go-to when it comes to both high and lower end brands, so it’s well worth a look if you’re on a budget”.            

The deal hunter started off by sharing a dupe for the best-selling Charlotte Tilbury MagicCream.

She said: “The Revolution Pro Cream is a great alternative to the award winning Charlotte Tilbury cream.

"The real thing is an eye-watering £79 for the 50ml pot. Revolution’s is just £7.50, so it’s a fraction of the price”.

Moving on, Eilish said: “Boots has a Glow Essence Serum for £4.50 as part of their own brand skincare range. It’s a great alternative to Glow Recipe’s £33 serum."

“If you love the look of the Sol de Janeiro shower gel, but can’t face paying the £49 price tag”, she went on, “Treacle Moon’s Brazilian Ocean scent has a really similar scent for just £1.99 - such a bargain!”

A dupe for the popular Charlotte Tilbury Blush Wands, Eilish recommended: “Elf has the Halo Glow Wands in a couple of different shades for £9 each.

"I’d say that’s on the pricier side for Elf, a famously cheap brand. But, they’re great value compared to Charlotte Tilbury’s, which retail for £30 each”.

Then, Eilish showed a dupe for a popular mascara, saying “this Elf mascara is a dupe for Benefit’s Roller Lash. The Benefit mascara is £25.50 for the full size, whereas Elf’s is just £8”. 

Next up was a dupe for Rihanna’s beauty brand, Fenty.

She said: “Collection’s contour sticks are a dupe for the Fenty March Stix, which retails for £26. If you opt for the Collection stick, you’ll pay just £4.99, so more than £20 less”.

Another bronzer next, Eilish said: “The w7 bronzer is a dupe for the famous Benefit Hoola Bronzer.

"Benefit’s box bronzer is one of their most iconic products and will set shoppers back £30. For a budget option, w7 is the way to go at just £4."

And, finishing with one more w7 make up dupe, Eilish said: “The Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipstick is another one of their cult products, but it’s pricey at £27.

"For an affordable alternative, I recommend the w7 lipstick in shade Naked Desire. It’s a great option at just £3”.

Shopping the eight dupes over the luxury brands, you can save over £250.
