I buy my beauty dupes at Trader Joe’s – the hand creams have similar ingredients & scents as $30 tubes of L’Occitane
ONE beauty lover has revealed their favorite bargain buys from Trader Joe's.
They especially raved about the hand cream steal that can rival a much more expensive brand.
Reddit user Lopsided_mastrodon_78 gave a rundown of all of their dupe deals.
"The Daily Facial Moisturizing Hand Creams have similar packaging, ingredients, and scents as L'Occitane hand creams," they said.
And that was just the beginning.
"The Daily Facial Sunscreen is a dupe for the Unseen Sunscreen from Supergoop for a fraction of the price," they said.
They also explained how the affordable store carried products similar to another brand - Sol de Janeiro.
"The Salted Caramel and Pistachio body care products from Trader Joe's smell identical," they said.
"The body wash and scrub are fabulous."
Other users also spilled the beans on their own Trader Joe's beauty product secrets.
"Just purchased today - a dupe for the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. This was my first time seeing this," said one Redditor.
"It feels a little bit lighter than the Laneige, but nice and moisturizing, and has a pretty amount of shine the way Laneige does," they continued.
"I'm a makeup artist and even though it's a moisturizer, I often use it as a lipgloss. And the vanilla scent isn't too strong and fake-sweet like vanilla can be sometimes.
"Laneige is generally around $20, this was $5.49 if memory serves."
"The honey moisturizer duo - wish I would have grabbed more. Hopefully, it returns soon," said another user.
It seemed that skincare buys weren't the only steal either.
"The shea butter and coconut hair serum - I think it's my favorite hair product ever, I use it on both wet and dry hair," wrote one shopper.
