A MOM with a keen eye for a bargain has revealed her favorite dupes of popular beauty products.
She confessed that watching other TikTokers make great finds at Dollar Tree has her in a “chokehold.”
Katie Lawson (@klblog) boasts over 10,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares shopping hauls.
She went viral on the social media app when she revealed Dollar Tree’s range of products that could be mistaken for being from pricier beauty brands.
“Why pay $10 plus for something you can get for $1.25,” she said.
Katie was impressed when the first item she spotted in the store were dupes of Olay skincare.
“They had the cream cleanser, hydrating moisturizer, and then the nighttime cream which I know a lot of people use,” she said.
Olay’s night cream ranges in price from $15 to $35 at stores such as Target.
Olay’s moisturizers also cost up to $35.
“Next they have something very similar to Welly,” Katie said.
“These are first-aid kits, they’re 21 count and great for your purse.
“I love all of the prints they have.”
Cuticle oil, eye patches, dupes of Vaseline sticks, and a “viral mango candy” also caught her attention as she browsed the shelves at Dollar Tree.
“Then some Cetaphil dupes,” she said, picking up the products.
“We have the gentle skin cleanser and the moisturizing lotion.
“I found a retinol serum and then an eye-puffy serum stick.
“These next three are probably my favorite finds, they’re Glow Recipe dupes.”
Katie held up a night moisturizer, a serum, and a toner formulated with watermelon extract and hyaluronic acid.
She said the watermelon scent in the products smells “exactly the same” as Glow Recipe products.
Glow Recipe’s watermelon pore-tightening toner costs $35 on their website.
“It’s actually insane,” Katie said.
“And moving on to some Eos shave cream dupes, they have vanilla lavender and coconut cream.
“These go on so smooth.”
She finished the shopping spree with body washes that were strikingly similar to those offered by Native, as well as blemish patches, and hair clips.
“Stop what you’re doing and run to the Dollar Tree now,” she said.
Over 1,300 viewers liked the video and many vented about being unable to find the products in their local stores.
“Wow, you hit the jackpot,” one person said.
“Can’t find the Glow Recipe anywhere in KY,” another said.
“I cannot find the Glow Recipe dupes [cyring],” a third wrote.
“All Dollar Trees are not created equally so our store may never get this stuff,” another commented.
“I noticed your DT looks like a department store, ours looks like a junk store. I hate to go there.”
