Sticking to a makeup and skincare budget has never been easier, thanks to Dollar Tree. At the bargain retailer, most products go for just $1.25 a piece, especially in the beauty department. Hypothetically, you could replenish your whole skincare routine for as little as $10 total—most name-brand items cost more than that individually. And the same goes for makeup. Dollar Tree is also a hub for dupe products. Most recently, TikTokers found cheaper yet identical versions of Elizabeth Arden, Milk Makeup, and Sol de Janeiro items. See which name-brand dupes you need to stock up on right here.

“It honestly does remind me a lot of the Summer Fridays’ [balm],” she continued. “I’m kind of obsessed with this, and for only $1!”

TikToker @mainstmuse struck gold during her latest Dollar Tree shopping trip. She stocked up on multiple products from the brand Power Stick, whose fragrances have been widely dubbed as dupes for Sol de Janeiro.
The first two items can be used in the shower, before and after shaving: Non-Foaming Shave Gel and Post-Shave Cream, both of which come in the Brazilian Mist scent. They are made from vegan formulas without parabens or dyes.
“I’m buying both of those,” she declared after conducting an in-store sniff test.
She also grabbed Power Stick’s Aluminum-Free Deodorant and came across three new shower gels. They come in the scents Brazilian Mist, Santal Woods, and Amber Rouge, all of which are said to smell like Sol de Janeiro. Of the three, Santal Woods ended up being her favorite.
