About this app

Working on your skincare routine on a budget? No problem. Our free app makes it easy to compare affordable products to your favorite prestige brand makeup & skincare buys so you can decide whether you want to switch to save or stick with the cult favorite. See swatches in the app done by makeup & skincare geeks. They compare products with the kind of vim and vigor someone might save for a triathlon… or a Netflix marathon (we don’t judge).

Our community of dermatologists, estheticians and makeup/skincare experts compare products side-by-side and share real results on things like color, wear time, and more. Give us all the makeup reviews, please! We also report on ingredients and share labeled swatch photos so you can see the products in action. Wondering what the best clean makeup is for your virtual date on Friday? Ask everyone in our Community section. Or check out our “Clean Beauty Faves” section for our favorite clean skincare and makeup.

We’re here to help you discover new products while you shop. Take your pricey routine and search for affordable equivalents by companies like The Ordinary, Milani, Acure, The Inkey List, Versed, and CeraVe. We do it by pulling makeup and skincare products from trending brands like Tatcha, Sunday Riley, Too Faced, Tarte, Drunk Elephant, and Glossier and put them to the test against rumored dupes (and you don’t have to keep these rumors hush, hush).

Join our community and have some fun discovering new makeup, skincare, and ways to save. We’re female-founded and on a mission to help you find the best products for your makeup & skincare budget!

Only do two comparisons at time and they are not even for what you asked. It's mainly comparing expensive brands and then once in a while they throw a cheaper one in but that usually isn't that cheap either. I thought this was going to show me some good deals instead you get 2 reviews and 2 comparisons of some product that may or may not be what you want it for well good luck to whom ever this app is for but it's not for me. Thanks and have a wonderful day.

Brandefy is an amazing resource for finding affordable dupes of pretty much any premium skincare product you can think of. I ordered their dupe of the $165 Skinceuticals CE Ferulic serum for around $40, and the ingredients were literally identical and I've had consistent results between the two. I highly recommend this app for any and all skincare lovers, especially those who love a great value!

Having trouble figuring out this app clicked I wanted make up and skincare took the time to follow EVERY BRAND THEY HAD ON THE LIST and thought this was kinda like a dupe finder but all I've seen is the same 3 products on the home screen, there's no category for just browsing you have to physically type in a product and half the products I've searched they have nothing on Kinda disappointed if they spent half of the time on the app that they do on Instagram I feel like it would be so much better
