I found a Dollar Tree dupe for a blush that costs $13 at Ulta – I can’t tell the difference & it’s a tenth of the price
A BEAUTY guru has found a cute and more importantly, cost-saving cosmetic buy at Dollar Tree.
The price difference seemed to be the most noticeable distinction between the dupe and the name-brand version.
“I’m not saying they’re dupes. What I’m saying is that if you were wearing this but you lied to me and you told me you were wearing this I would believe you,” said Taylor Nelson (@taylornelsonofficial).
The beauty guru held up the two makeup finds in her hand, one on top of the other.
The first was a Physician’s Formula strawberry jam blush and underneath was the Dollar Tree dupe.
Both beauty buys featured strawberry motifs over a pink background.
The only difference seemed to be that the pricier name-brand blush had more realistic-looking strawberries while the frugal find featured pink and red versions of the fruit.
Taylor certainly couldn’t distinguish between the two.
“Both are so cute,” she explained.
She might not have been able tell the difference between the price tags told a different story.
The Physician’s Formula strawberry jam blush sells for $12.99 at Ulta Beauty compared to her $1.25 deal.
The buy was described as being as creamy and spreadable as your favorite jam – and with the same scent.
While the product had rave reviews, the biggest complaint seemed to be that also just like real strawberries, the fruit pattern did not last forever.
“Should have looked more into this but if you want it mostly because of how it it is, the strawberries rub off on the first use. I love cute makeup and I saw this and was obsessed!
“The pattern is just so adorable I had to have it. Don’t get me wrong, the color is pretty. Formula is good too so there’s nothing wrong with the product but I was so heartbroken because I bought it just for the look of it,” one purchaser shared.
“I bought this a bit ago, and I love it, smells good, and goes on well would buy again,” another satisfied customer chimed in.
Her fans were also in disbelief over the deal.
“No way!” exclaimed one shocked follower.
“Yas,” she replied.
“I’m definitely going to have to check this one out babe,” shared another enthused viewer.
“Love the strawberry,” a watcher agreed.
Both blushes were also subject to the same fading fate – but Taylor had a solution.
“I was so sad when my little strawberry babies disappeared on my Physician’s Formula blush!”
“I know, that’s why I have one I keep just to look pretty hehe,” she explained.
“The Dollar Tree one is good but the strawberries are only on top they wiped off the first time I used it,” another purchaser recounted her experience.
“So does the Physician’s Formula,” Taylor assured her.
