Dollar Tree shopper's hack to find high-end makeup in discount store: 'What a time to be alive'

A discount store shopper has shared how she found some popular name-brand makeup products for affordable prices at Dollar Tree.

Diane, who was shopping at one of the store's Tennessee locations on July 26, showed her followers how to keep an eye out for expensive makeup items hiding in unbranded packaging on Dollar Tree's shelves.

The content creator spotted various kinds of Stila liquid eyeshadow, lip gloss, and liquid lipstick - which go for as much as $24 - while in the store's makeup aisle.

The hack left Diane and other TikTok users shook, with one commenting: 'What a time to be alive.' 

Diana was excited to finally find products from Stila Cosmetics - a company that sells artistry-proven and cruelty-free makeup.

The content creator first spotted its liquid eyeshadow, which are currently worth between $12.50 and $25.00 on the makeup company's website.

Dollar Tree had at least two Stila liquid eyeshadow shades, one being elevator pitch.

Diana also got her hands on three shades of Stila lipsticks: Perla, Carmelo, and Baci.

The shopper called the colors 'really pretty' before putting them into her basket.

The products, which are formally called Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick, are available to purchase on the company website anywhere from $12.00 to $24.00.

However, Diana claimed that the lip and eyeshadow products in the Knoxville store cost $1.25 each.

Diana posted her video just one year after a blogger and Dollar Tree expert named Kim posted a TikTok video that showed named-brand products in different packaging.

Kim advised viewers to 'look out for black and white packages' at Dollar Tree as they are allegedly name-brand products.

She used two products as examples - Wet n' Wild Glitter Eyeliner and Jelly Highlighter Illuminateur from Rimmel London.

The Wet n' Wild Megawear Very Black Mascara is currently available to purchase on the Dollar Tree website for $1.25.

However, like Stila products, the Rimmel London item is unavailable on the store's website.

LA Colors, Ioni, and Candy Moyo are makeup brands that shoppers can purchase at Dollar Tree online now.

Diana also purchased a bottle of Dapple dish soap, Dapple disinfecting spray, and PowerHouse foaming dish spray

Dollar Tree TikTok responded to Diana's video by calling the products 'great finds,' and other users were also impressed to see they were available to purchase there.

'I've always wanted to try Stila Cosmetics, especially the eyeshadow sticks or the liquid. I guess I got to go to the dollar tree,' commented a TikToker.

Other TikTok users approved of the dish washing products, but one person warned Diana to watch out for her mug.

'I tried my Stila and it really stays put! Good find on the dapple dish soap,' wrote a TikTok user.
