Have you ever been browsing around the Dollar Store and found some amazing beauty finds? Lately I have been seeing lots of great name

brand finds. 

Feel free to post any beauty, makeup, skincare, nail or hair care finds here!

@Mellmars1185 I wish I was still young enough to be able to wear chintz-y shoes and not get a foot ache!

[Mellmars1185]

@greeneyedgirl107 i was thinking they would make good house slippers hehe. I can wear those for walks anymore. 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@Mellmars1185 good idea!

The Dollar Store is my go to store for cotton balls. I ran out of shaving gel which was only $3.50 each. The nail polish remover was $3.00. I picked up these makeup wedges for $1.75 which I plan on using for my nails.

*EDIT* I saw there were 2 Hard Candy eyes palettes left there. I wish I took a pic. There were maybe 16 shadow shades. I resisted. It was really pretty. I have never tried eyeshadow fron that brand.

@Mellmars1185  Oh good finds in store😃

[Mellmars1185]

@Cissy63 Thank you! I was happy to find the products I was looking for. I ended up with some extra chocolate hehe

Nice dollar store haul @Mellmars1185! Great job resisting the Hard Candy palettes.

I did a little digging on the company. They seem to have a partnership with Walmart. Their primer won an award from allure last year.

[Mellmars1185]

@JoSometimes Nice! I remember Hard Candy from their nail polishes. Back in the early 2000's (I think). They had these cool nail polishes with rings on them. I couldn't find them in Canada. I saw them in all the magazines.

Not exactly a dollar store but they were a dollar each!

Also, if anyone is interested in getting into at home gel manicures, Dollarama carries a UV curing light for $4.00. (Forgot to take a photo.)

@JoSometimes Great finds for $1.00! I can't wait to see how the mirror polish looks.

Dollar store hauls don’t count for low-buys right?

I went to one of those indie dollar stores out of curiosity. Unlike the big chains, you really never know what’s inside these. I’ve been looking for toe separators for pedicures, sponges to try ombré manicures, another cheap brush for manicure clean up, and a compact mirror I can keep with my makeup stash. This dollar store had them all!

The real star is the purple glitter topper. I avoided the LA Colour creams but I really liked the copper topper, so I thought I’d give this purple one a whirl.

They had an entire stand of some obscure but really pretty looking polishes. I opened one that had red and white glitters to check its consistency and caught a big whiff of some really wicked solvents, so I put it back.

@JoSometimes  Good finds at the indie store!  

[Mellmars1185]

@JoSometimes Nice Dollar Store finds. I really like finding the small Dollar Stores. You really never know what you are going to find. That is the most fun part. You got some neat nail items. The purle polish looks fun. Is that mirror in the shape of a cat😺?

[JoSometimes]

@Mellmars1185 It does look like a cat, but I think that’s just a happy coincidence. The wire is supposed to be the stand.

I've been wanting something like this!  $1.25

@greeneyedgirl107  Oh so cute!

[Mellmars1185]

@greeneyedgirl107 This is super cute! I like the shape of these types of hair clips. I find they hold really well. I like the white fur 🤍

[JoSometimes]

@greeneyedgirl107 That clip is so cute and fluffy!

[greeneyedgirl107]

I notice a Dollar Tree went into what used to be a CVS in a neighboring town.  I'm super curious how it compares to the small one by my work.   It's one of my fave destinations now!

Oooh this is a fun thread! @Mellmars1185 

I love the random things you can find at the dollar store 😄

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Thank you! Sometimes I am so impressed with what I find. I see some great DYI projects done with items from the dollarstore aswell. My go to item is the bag of cotton balls I use to remove my nail polish and eye makeup.
