Since its launch in September, Rihanna‘s cosmetics company, Fenty Beauty, has made award-winning strides in diversity and representation. But one thing that it isn’t known for is affordability. The brand’s most recent example was its just-launched Body Lava, a shimmery and dewy body oil, which was dragged for its higher-than-usual price. However, fortunately for us, one fan seems to have skirted Body Lava’s $59 price tag and DIY-ed a dupe for much less.

Recently, Aleah, a Fenty Beauty fan, went viral for the genius way she duped Fenty Beauty’s Body Lava using baby oil and some powder highlighter. Aleah’s hack began by pouring a healthy amount of of Artist Couture x Jackie Aina’s highlighter in La Peach on a cap, which she transferred to a piece of paper and poured into a bottle of baby oil.

After a few shakes, Aleah was left with a glittery peach-gold oil ready to be rubbed on her body. The video continued with Aleah spreading the concoction on her décolletage and neck, which left her with a shimmery sun-kissed glow that looks like she just came from a tropical vacation. “Beauty on a budget  we flourishing all summer sis,” she captioned the video.
