She did a side-by-side comparison to show how spot-on the makeup dupe was.
Monica (@mangomoniica) shared the beauty find in a video with her TikTok followers.
The influencer compared Tarte’s $24 Maracuja Lip Plump in the shade White Peach with Elf’s $8 Pout Clout in Just Peachy.
“Can you tell which side is the Elf side and which side is Tarte?” she asked.
For a third of the price, the influencer noted that the dupe was a great deal as viewers could pick up three of the Elf lip pens for the cost of just one Tarte product.
“The left one is the Elf in Just Peachy and the right is Tarte Maracuja in White Peach,” she said.
“The Elf looks a lot more pigmented but let me know what you think.”
Her viewers shared their thoughts on the lippie comparison.
“Elf for sure. Very small difference and for the price, definitely Elf!” said one commenter.

A few viewers took Tarte’s side, explaining that the texture mattered to them.
