People overlook the name-brand makeup at Dollar Tree – the secret to look out for, to bag Rimmel and Maybelline cheaply
A MONEY-CONSCIOUS woman has shared a stealthy secret that many people might miss at the dollar store if they don’t pay attention.
She said that people might commonly overlook name brands like Rimmel and Maybelline at your local Dollar Tree that give you a bang for your buck.
A budget-friendly TikTok user known as Babysuit (@babysuitbabysuit) has shared a deal for affordable beauty products at the dollar store.
She showed viewers in a video what not to overlook at your local Dollar Tree, and how to save money on quality makeup.
Babysuit panned across several aisles to show the vast selection of lipsticks, blushes, BB cream, foundation, and more.
“I feel like something that people would definitely overlook at Dollar Tree is when you see these really generic packaging for cosmetics. These are actually name brands,” she said.
There was L’Oreal Paris lipstick, Rimmel blush, Maybelline lipgloss, Rimmel lipstick, and several other popular companies shown, like Wet n Wild.
“You just have to look out for this really crappy packaging that has name-brand cosmetics in it,” she explained.
The best part is that the items are only $1.25 each at the discount store.
She detailed in the video caption that the products are repackaged from their original wrapping and then resold at a cheaper price, which not everyone is a fan of.
The comment section was filled with conflicting opinions.
Some people appreciated the beauty tip, while others were hesitant.
“My dollar store doesn’t have that much but I’ve found a few. Love it,” a viewer commented.
“My only hesitation is on the back it states it’s not packaged by the manufacturer, so you don’t know if it’s handled in a sanitary way,” another added.
“It’s a gamble. I have purchased really good lipstick at 99 cents and dollar stores. Sometimes they are expired though too,” a woman shared.
