BATTLE OF THE DUPES #5: Barry M vs. Rimmel

I have quite a few nail polishes in my collection and saw these two nail polishes next to each other and thought they looked like a dupe but polishes can dry differently when applied so would put it to the test.
Before applying the nail polishes I prepped my nails with my favourite base coat; which is Ciaté Nail Super Hero.

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #4: e.l.f vs. MAC

I love MAC lipstick in Velvet Teddy so I decided to look for a dupe and on Pinterest there were a few posts about an e.l.f product being a dupe so I thought I would check it out.

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #3: Benefit vs. Maybelline

All over Pinterest and Instagram I had seen people say that Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser is a dupe of Benefit POREfessional so I though I would put it to the test myself especially as I love using the Benefit primer and if I can find a cheaper alternative then that would be brilliant. Also the day that I tried the primer out was a busy day, I had to work for a few hours and then headed to a park for a friend's birthday with the family and all of this was on a hot day.
Before I applied the primers I put my usual moisturiser on which is Astral.

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #2: Armani vs. What If?

I love the Armani Si eau de parfum and would constantly 'borrow' my sisters - I have never had the eau de parfum so constantly spray it when I am in the store because I love it so when a friend recommended a cheaper product that smelt very similar I decided to try it out.

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #1: Barry M vs. Sinful Colors

For the month of June I plan to do blog posts every Saturday finding dupes for either expensive or limited edition products. Now when I test out products such as todays post I do half and half, I don't apply one nail polish on one hand and the other is the other polish what I do is alternate nails starting with Barry M then Sinful Colors then Barry M then Sinful Colors (I do it alphabetical).
Before applying the nail polishes I prepped my nails with my favourite base coat which is Ciaté Nail Super Hero.
