HIGH END ist am ENDE ❌ | Diese Alternativen sind BESSER ! | Maxim Giacomo

Does it always have to be high-end? In 2026, there are hardly any reasons to spend a fortune on makeup. In this video, I'll show you my absolute drugstore favorites and affordable alternatives (dupes) that easily outshine expensive brands like Charlotte Tilbury or Rhode. We'll explore how to create a perfect, soft-focus finish with budget-friendly products like the Essence Silky Blur Foundation or the treasures from Kiko Milano, without making your skin look heavy. I'll also share my current go-to three-product combination for the perfect skincare prep. ✨ Products Mentioned & Highlights: Skincare Base: Why the combination of Haruharu Wonder Black Rice and Purito Moisturizer works better than expensive hyped-up products. Foundation Favorite: The Essence Silky Blur Hydrating Longwear Foundation for only €5. Water-based glow products: Lightweight textures from Physicians Formula and By Terry for mature or dry skin. Kiko Milano must-haves: The Radiant Fusion Baked Powder and the Long Lasting Wet & Dry Eyeshadows (my secret tip for blush!). What are your favorite Kiko products?
