As Taylor Swift's Eras Tour prepares to grace Liverpool's Anfield Stadium again tonight (Saturday), fans are eagerly shopping for their last-minute outfit essentials. With tickets alone costing a small fortune, many Swifties are on the hunt for budget-friendly ways to recreate Taylor's iconic looks. 

One signature element of Taylor's style is her classic red lip, a staple throughout every performance of The Eras Tour. While she has professed her love for luxurious lipsticks from the likes of Pat McGrath Labs, NARS, and Mac, let's face it; these brands aren't known for their affordability. 

Sandbach Nub News told here how one student at Sandbach High School and Sixth Form college is raffling a box of Taylor Swift merchandise to raise funds for a conservation trip while nearby Holmes Chapel Partnership has extra tickets have been added to Harry's Home Village Tours after Taylor Swift's UK tour gives a boost as revealed here .

Maybelline Superstay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick

Retailer: Superdrug

Shade: Exhilirator

While many of us can only dream of splurging £33 on a Pat McGrath lippie, even if we could, the exact shade Taylor wears is out of stock pretty much everywhere. But fear not, as this Maybelline dupe is virtually an exact match, and comes in at less than a third (30%) of the price of the original. 

This liquid lipstick dries down instantly to a long-wearing matte finish, ensuring you can sing your heart out, sip your drinks, and snack on your favourite concert treats without worrying about a makeup emergency.

Shade: Kate Moss #001

One of the standout features of this lipstick is its impressive staying power, giving its luxury counterparts a run for their money. Designed to stay put, it ensures you won't need to worry about touch-ups, allowing you to enjoy your day to the fullest.

Priced at under a tenner, it's an affordable way to feel 'Gorgeous' on a budget. 

Sleek MakeUP Luxe Lip Satin Lipstick

Whether you're heading to the Eras Tour or will be lip-syncing her greatest hits at home, it will undoubtedly make a great addition to your makeup bag. What's more, once your celebrations have drawn to a close, you can apply this colour sparingly for everyday wear. 

Revolution Satin Kiss Lipstick

Retailer: Superdrug

Shade: Ruby

Revolution's 'Satin Kiss' lipstick is truly the stuff of (wildest) dreams. This lipstick has gained acclaim for its resemblance to Mac's popular 'Ruby Woo', a shade often reached for by Taylor Swift.

Priced at just over 20% of the original, it's a savvy choice for fans looking to capture her hallmark style without splurging. 

Five Expert Tips For Perfecting Your Red Lip: 

The beauty experts at LatestDeals.co.uk have brought together five tips for making that red lip last all night long: 

1. Prep with Lip Liner: Before applying your red lipstick, outline and fill in your lips with a lip liner in the matching shade. This not only provides a base for your lipstick to adhere to, but also helps define the edges for a precise finish.

2. Hydrate with Lip Balm: Start by moisturising your lips with your favourite lip balm. Allow it to fully absorb into your lips before applying lipstick. A well-hydrated base ensures a smoother application and prevents the lipstick from clinging to dry patches.

3. Apply with Precision: Guilty as sin of applying your makeup heavy-handedly? Or do you experience shaky hands? In this case, consider using a lip brush to apply the product with precision. Start from the centre of your lips and work outward for an even application. 

4. Set with Translucent Powder: For extra staying power, lightly dust your lips with translucent powder after applying lipstick. This helps set the colour in place and prevents it from transferring onto clothing and cups throughout the day. 

5. Touch Up as Needed: If in doubt, keep your lipstick and lip liner handy for touch-ups throughout the day. Gently blot onto the faded or smudged areas for flawless lips all night long.
