I got a $6.99 beauty buy from Trader Joe’s – it’s brand new and such a good scent dupe for a $52 cult favorite
A BEAUTY influencer has stocked up on an inexpensive Trader Joe’s dupe for a cult-favorite $52 body oil.
She thought the Trader Joe’s oil had a close scent for the more expensive name-brand treatment.
Arielle (@ariellecalimquim) took viewers on her shopping trip in a video shared with over 500,000 followers.
“I visited Trader Joe’s the other day and look at the new beauty products I found,” she said.
“They’re carrying a full size of the Brazil Nut body oil. If you got this in their little Christmas set, you know how good it is,” she said.
For a limited time, Trader Joe’s is bringing back the oil in a four-ounce size, formerly offered only in a two-ounce version in a holiday gift set.
“It’s such a scent dupe for the Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Firmeza Oil. This is such a good find,” she said.
The $6.99 oil clocked in at a mere fraction of the price compared to the $52 Sol de Janeiro alternative.
Arielle also picked up a Valentine’s Day-themed lip treatment set which included a chocolate and berry-scented lip mask.
“I got this as a little gift for Valentine’s Day. They smell really good and they were super hydrating,” she said.
People shared their reviews on the latest Trader Joe’s products in the comments.
“The body oil is GREAT! The fragrance is lovely but not too strong and the oil feels super moisturizing,” said one fan.
Others were glad that Trader Joe’s reprised the oil after the seasonal Christmas drop.
“I bought 3 boxes of that oil and lotion set. Addicted,” said one viewer.
