What is a dupe?

A dupe or “duplicate” product, is a product that’s a cheaper alternative to or very much similar to another, often much more expensive product. This vernacular is often used in online makeup communities/forums and blogs.

What’s the criteria for a product to be labelled a dupe?

A dupe product (at least on SkinCareDupes.com) is so-called when the product has the same active ingredients as the original, when it works the same way and offers the same results at a cheaper price.

Why do people search for skin care dupes?

Dupes in skincare are sought after for many reasons, the most common are when:

* You love a product but don’t love the price and want a cheaper alternative

* You love a product but it’s hard to find, sold out, not available, discontinued or can’t be shipped to where you live

* You love a product but one or two ingredients don’t suit you or your skin for whatever reason (allergies, reactions, fragrance, feel, tests on animals, etc.)

* You love a product or ingredient & are curious to find similar products with the same formula/ingredient that will give you the same results

* You’re away from home (travelling, moved to a different country) and need a product you can buy locally that’s similar to one you love
