Beauty fans rush to get their hands on a £1.99 Sol De Janeiro dupe – this one isn’t from Aldi or Lidl
A BEAUTY fan has shared a new dupe of the viral Sol De Janeiro fragrances and it’s 80% off.
The savvy shopper took to social media to rave about the new beauty dupe.
While many have found similar ones at Aldi and Lidl, which have received rave reviews, this particular dupe was much easier to obtain as it is not a limited-time product.
Didova Reneta revealed on Facebook: “Sol De Janeiro dupes in Farmfoods, £1.99.
“The smell is unreal.”
She shared a photo of the fragrance she received from brand Enliven, which was similar to Sol De Janeiro’s fragrance 68, which retails for £20 in Boots.

The Fresca Blooms fragrance contains 150ml of product and costs just £1.99 at Farmfoods and has notes of jasmine and caramel.
The original designer fragrance is described as having notes of Brazilian jasmine, Pink Dragon fruit, ocean air and a touch of Tropicalia Vanilla, illuminated by Sun Musk.
Not only did she say the scent was incredible, she also said it lasted on the skin for ages — and others shared the same sentiment in the comment section of the post.
And if you don’t have a Farmfoods near you, many said you could also get the scent in Morrisons.
The new collection consists of three scents, Fresca Bloom, Tropical Bliss and Brazilian Moonflower.
Tropical Bliss is similar to the designer’s first fragrance, 62, which has scents of salted caramel and pistachio.
Brazilian Moonflower has notes of jasmine, amber and pear, just like Sol De Janeiro’s new fragrance 58, which also has notes of amber.
The post was a hit on the Facebook group, Extreme Coupons and Bargains UKwith more than 2.5 million members.
People were quick to share their thoughts in the comments.

Best Beauty Dupes
Fabulous’ Beauty Editor, Tara Ledden revealed the cheaper version of your favorite beauty products you should have in your cupboard.
“According to new research from Elf Cosmetics, a whopping 55% of us would like to spend less on our beauty routines, so it’s no wonder there are millions of #dupe videos on Tiktok.
“While some dupes are easy to spot because of their appearance, they often fall short when it comes to content.
“In fact, some of the best dupes look nothing like the luxury product they’re a dead ringer for — and trust me, they’re the ones you want.”
REAL: Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer, £32.50 DUPE: Natural Collection Bronzer, £3.50, which is a saving of £29. The Natural Collection Bronzer is available in more shades, although there is no mirror in the compact.
REAL: Hydro-Grip Primer for Milk Makeup, £35 DUPE: Elf Power Grip primer, £10. These two share a similar green shade and the same long-lasting, mattifying properties – although Elf’s is so popular it’s just as difficult to obtain.
REAL: Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick, £28 DUPE: L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Satin Lipstick Beige A Now, £8.99. The shades of these two lipsticks are almost identical on the lips, although Charlotte Tilbury’s is matte, but the L’Oréal Paris Lipstick has a satin finish – which actually makes it more comfortable if you wear it all day.
REAL: Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation, £40 DUPE: Lasting Perfection Matte Foundation Collection, £6.99. While they don’t look the same from the outside, the formula, consistency, and staying power of both foundations are quite similar — unfortunately, the collection only comes in 20 shades versus Estee Lauder’s 60 options.
REAL: Shinier Boys Brow, £20 DUPE: Essence Make Me Brow Gel, £2.50. There’s an entire Reddit thread dedicated to this dupe, so you know it has to be good. They both have a waxy consistency and added fibers to make brows look fuller. I have to say the color range at Boy Brow is much better, but if you are brunette there are plenty of Essence color options to try.

“I have the blue one, it’s sooooo delicious!” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: ‘Who makes me spend money now? money.”
