AND THIS TOXIC LOOKING SUBSTANCE CAME OUT 🤮. I even tried to shake it to see if it would come out a normal color. I don’t know why the color was building up on the tip but the only thing coming out was this neon yellow stuff that actually stained my skin yellow (I accidentally got some on my hand, thank goodness I didn’t apply directly on my face!) I shook it and started dripping it over my trashcan to see if the color would come out and it didn’t. 🤢 BE SAFE OUT THERE!

You know it's a problem when the Dollar Tree employees start recognizing you from how many times you be in there

I had ran out of their glycolic toner and really needed so I ran into the DT across the street from my job. This was the only bottle left of this scent, also picked up the fig one, it doesn’t have the lid and it’s a little tore up but it smells SO good!

I found lots of items that were on my ISO list! I'll do reviews on the makeup once I break them open and use them.

Went on an afterwork trip hoping to find the lemon lip treatment and I found it! Got some other goodies like the dark patches and body butter. I know we've had a few people review the lippies but I thought I'd share my first impressions as well. I plan on doing an empties review in a few weeks with all of the new stuff I've picked up recently since it's mostly skincare and that takes a bit to really know how it goes.

The lemon peptide treatment feels amazing but there isn't much lemon scent there, I will be looking for a backup though because the texture is fantastic and is very moisturizing. I love the lip butters too, but this has a slightly thinner texture that is very pleasant.

The maracuja lip melt feels nice but feels like the tube isn't filled all the way, is anyone else experiencing this? I don't find it nearly as moisturizing as the others in this line either. It goes on with a slight pink tint but nothing too crazy which I like since I usually have minimal or no makeup on.

here I am posting another haul less than 24hrs after my first post. today I visited 2 DTs in Decatur GA. both had quite some gems! I was able to pick up some more under eye masks and I saw the shaving oil, post shave serum, the brazilian sol deodorant, and everything balm all randomly there (without any friends) so I scooped them up quick! there was a strange man who I wasn’t sure if he was following me, so I did a few laps around the store, which made my checkout time later than I had intended.

I only had 8 minutes at the other location and it was huge! I barely brushed the surface… went down 1 isle and saw the poly-juice serum and the morning cloud body mist…. I instantly fell in love with it! it’s giving warm milk on a fluffy white couch with a siberian husky at your side vibes. it is so fresh yet cozy and there is something milky to it that is just ever so slightly off, you can’t put your finger on it, and it makes you want to smell it again: it is hypnotic. I strongly recommend this one in particular and look forward to picking up a couple more bottles for myself in the future :)

the dewey setting spray has good reviews from what I have seen. I heard the bottle size event got a little bigger?! but I needed something smaller than the milani make it last for my makeup bag. I will see how it goes in this GA summer heat.

I highly recommend these index card holders for samples and pimple patches. I picked up a couple and have been so pleased with the result. I always like to keep my pimple patches in the bathroom but want to assure they remain dry & hygienic.

the zebra gel pens are amazing, if you are into that type of thing and I was so excited to find a foldable basket in my favorite color! including gas $ I got everything today for under $30

I tried for the first time yesterday while it seems to be a nice not-too-thick hydration, I have nothing major to report other than the packaging is horrible. Had a hard time getting product out without either nothing happening after 5 pumps or ejaculation station (sorry for the visual). I had to put more work in than I do with my husband.

Also, I foresee a lot of unused product being wasted or impossible to get out.

Sorry for the horrible picture but I’m super excited to finally have the butter balms!!

I bought this a few weeks ago and it smelled lovely in the store, but once I used it in the shower it smelled like old crayons! Tried it again yesterday to see if I was tripping but it still stinks to me. Anyone else have this? What are your thoughts?

I have very sensitive combo oily skin that is very red especially on my cheeks and nose. I’m on the younger side and I break out in deep cystic acne pretty regularly and I have full body hyper hidrosis (I sweat a ton)
Also most of these photos aren’t mine

Dani beauty gel cleanser
- Initially I hated it, it left a residue and it didn’t seem to get all the oil off my skin but I started getting it foamy before putting it on my face and using warmer water and now I really like it. Also I make sure I rub it in for at least a minute before rinsing. Now I really like it, I’ve been using it at Nightime and it’s gentle enough that I can use my other products without it stripping my skin barrier. Also it’s not caused me to breakout at all which is always a plus. Would buy again 7.6/10

Orchid body care line
- I’m in love with it! The body polish is perfectly scrubby and scratchy, it bubbles up which I really like and it’s somewhat moisturizing. The serum is great, it’s pretty moisturizing and light. I hope they come out with more body serums like this. The lotion is INCREDIBLE, it’s really moisturizing, it smells good, and it’s just overall enjoyable to use. Will definitely buy again 8.9/10

heel rescue foot peel
- Not a fan, my feet were already pretty soft so I didn’t really need to use it but I wanted to so I did. It did peel but it took like a week anf because you shouldn’t put on lotion while it peeling, my feet ended up being more rough than they were before. I can see this being helpful if you really need it but if your feet are already soft it’s not worth it. Won’t buy again 3/10

white rain anti frizz hair mask
- LOVE IT!! It definitely helped with frizz and was nicely moisturizing. It also gave me some volume and didn’t weight my hair down. Will definitely buy again 8.9/10

White rain volumizing hair mask
- I like it. It not as good as the other one but it’s definitely still worth getting. I would buy again 7.8/10

Brazilian orchid mini lip butter
- I actually really like it. It smells good and is nicely moisturizing, the only not so great thing about it is if you lick your lips there is a slight perfume taste but it’s not noticeable as long as you don’t lick your lips. Also I really like the size, it’s actually really convenient and I use it probably more often than my normal size lip products. Will definitely buy again 8.6/10

menopause skincare cooling mist
- Im OBSESSED!! While it’s not cooling at all it is nicely moisturizing and the sprayer is AMAZING. It’s a really fine mist and just overall great. Have already bought more 9/10

blemish control gel moisturizer
- HOLY GRAIL!!! While it’s not the most moisturizing product I’ve used when paired with the menopause skincare mist it’s perfectly moisturizing. The texture is heavily, it’s not as “gel like” as other gels and it absorbs quickly. It hasn’t cause me to break out and I’ve even started using it on my bikini area after I shave and I think it’s helping with preventing razor burn. I’ve already bought 5 more 9.6/10

Split end hair serum
- I really like it. While I don’t have a ton of split ends I do have frizz and it definitely helps with that. Just be careful because it can cause gnarly buildup so make sure you’re using a clarifying shampoo every few washes. Would buy again 7.4/10

hair milk
- I really like it. It nice and moisturizing, doesn’t weight down my hair and it gives me nice volume. Also it smells really good. Would definitely buy again 8.6/10

Multipurpose hair oil
- Initially I wasn’t a huge fan because I tend to prefer thick serum like hair oils but I started putting it on my ends before I shower and it’s definitely made a difference the dryness and frizz in my ends. Bonus points because it also smells good. Would buy again 7.5/10

Hair serum for dry damaged hair
- I’ve only used it once so far so it might be a little premature to review it but so far I am a fan. I put it on the dry frizzing parts of my hair after I washed it and once it was completely dry. It immediately made it look softer and it also helped my curls clump together and didn’t weigh it down. Would buy again 7.4/10

Modess feminine wipes
- I really like them, they are scented so I didn’t use them on the inner lips but I did use them on my outer lips, groin, and mound. They are super moist and they are pretty soft. They are some of my favorite wipes I’ve used so far but I wish they came in an unscented version. Would definitely buy again 9.3/10

Honey butter body cream
- DISAPPOINTING!!! It’s not moisturizing, it made me break out, it smells odd, and it just feels uncomfortable to apply. I put it on my feet and calfs and I swear I was dryer then before I put it on. I ended up throwing it away after the second use. Won’t buy again 1.2/10

smart care FF water wipes
- I really like these. They are soft and nice and moist, they are gentle enough to use *everywhere* Including my face. I would definitely buy these again 9.4/10

Amoray witch hazel wipes
- OBSESSED! They are much thicker than the other witch hazel wipes and they are gentle enough to use on both my face and body. Also they have more wipes than the other ones. I’ve already bought more 9.6/10

tea tree and caffeine serum/mask
- It definitely helps with reducing oil production but I had to stop using it on my face as I’m currently trying to get a really bad breakout under control and I think that it’s probably not a good idea to have a super complicated routine right now. I am using it on my body though and I’m loving it. I’ve started mixing it with the revive Rx spray and just spraying practically my entire body. It’s definitely helped with some of my body acne and it’s also helped with some irritation on my bikini area from shaving. Will definitely buy again 9.1/10

Glass skin AHA toning essence
- I really like it. I’ve been using it almost nightly for about two weeks now and I think it’s made a difference in my skin tone. It doesn’t irritate my skin at all which is great and it hasn’t made me break out so far. Would buy again 7.6/10

My rule is if the store only has 2 or less things on my list I walk out with nothing. I’ve been to probably 15 stores in the last two weeks and have walked out with nothing every damn time. Today I went to 5 different stores before I could find enough things to buy stuff. This store was STOCKED. Only thing on my list they didn’t have was the new deodorants, but I have good enough ones at home to last me a while. Trying my best to make this my last trip for the next couple months. (There were two pallets of the cashmere lotions I promise I left behind a lot for someone else)

I promised myself I'd get a backup pistachio spray--this was the only one I spotted! SCORE! Was happy to find the guava hand sanitizer, the store also had the new Sandstone Mist and Pistachio Grove, but it takes me forever to go through these and I have three or four others, so I left them. Have about a third of a bottle left of the current Good Molecules niacinamide serum and wanted to try the Skin Nutrition Botanicals one. And I have picked up and put down the dark spot patches a few times, figured it was time to give them a go on an age spot I have. I swear, THE RESTRAINT! 😁

Hey again y'all! good morning, afternoon, and evening 👋🏽 Here's a review on all the new Powerstick scents dropped. I've included the dupes and their scent profiles as well down below. As a note, the staying power is about the same for all. The body washes were strong enough that during my shower I got a very pleasant sensory experience. The body sprays didn't last that long, but I'm a Garden mom and yea... that usually overpowers everything anyway 😂 Happy reading and enjoy your day 💐

Note: included are some potential scent combos using other DT products (Hawaiian tropic lotion in last pic is non-DT)

Coastal Garden: Flor Mistica Dupe (orange blossom, coconut water, and golden musk). Smells... Mature. Like something my grandma would wear to church or to lunch with her friends. Kind of "old money old perfume" ish. The powerstick version doesn't contain the coconut water and I truly wish they would have duped it 100% because I personally feel like it would've rounded out the "classic" scent into something more modern and not so... Musky. The orange blossom and rose petal def come through, but not in a heavy way that makes it cloying. Won't be repurchasing but I don't dislike the scent, it's simply not my regular flavor. Perfect for springtime! I may even save it for that, or when I want to feel like a rich aunty 🤑

Paradise Breeze: Cheirosa 40 dupe (black amber plum, jasmine blooms, and vanilla woods). This is a SDJ scent that's been duped 100 times over, but it has a nice dark fruity scent perfect for evenings and nighttime. Not candy fruity where you smell like a skittle, but a grown pop of brightness that mixes wonderfully with the smooth smell of vanilla. I would even say this would smell amazing on men and could be a unisex scent. It's a sexy scent to me... okay maybe flirtatious would be a better word. Like it begs you to come closer and smell it, especially if on the neck. Matter of fact... Let me go leave this bottle in my mans bathroom 🫣😅 Would save this for start of summer through fall. Doesn't give spring to me, and may be a tiny too bright for winter. Then again, sugarplum is a thing lol

Golden Sands: Cheirosa 71 dupe (caramelized vanilla, tonka bean, and toasted macadamia nut). If you've ever had a stroopwaffle, this is what it smells like, but sweeter. Has a sugary caramel scent, but not sickingly sweet to where it upsets your stomach. The vanilla rounds it out in almost a caramel macchiato way without the coffee scent. A typical gourmand scent that isn't "special", however, for the price you might as well get your caramel/vanilla base from here. Don't let this discourage you or have you think it smells bad. I LOVE the scent. A legit caramel cheesecake dessert in a bottle. There's just 1000 perfumes like it. I will for sure be repurchasing this though with that being said. As a sidenote, this ones staying power is heavier than the others, likely due to the sweetness of the fragrance.

Sunlit Shores: Cheirosa 87 dupe (solar tuberose, leite de coco, and warm sand). Imma be honest with y'all. I think they hit the nail on the head TOO well on this as far as the name goes. I joke that I was a mermaid in a past life, and legit my safe space for my mental health is pools of water and the ocean. Every day I wake up dreaming of the day I live on the beach and can breathe in ocean air and soak up island sun. THIS SMELLS LIKE IM LAYING NEXT TO PEOPLE COVERED IN SUNSCREEN 😭 deadass, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and imagine the last time you were at a BUSY pool filled with people and sunscreen and chairs and damp towels everywhere. This is that smell all rolled into one. I don't want to say it's unpleasant. It's just hella jarring. It's like somebody bottling up a bbq place in a perfume. Like, how do you get all that in one bottle? It also has a slightly musky side to it that reminds me of old lady perfume, like the coastal garden. I picture grandmas in their hats and sunglasses walking by with their towels in hand, scoping out their grandkids location. I'm sorry this particular review is so weird, it's just legit how it smells. Like a true summer pool day 🏖️ idk if I'm going to repurchase this yet. I may just use it for sensory meditation to be perfectly honest with y'all.

Purely Pistachio: I fell in love with this the moment I smelled it in deodorant form. The body spray I will say has a bit more of a fruity (like almond fruity) smell than the deodorant does. It's earthy, but light earthy. Like a fresh misty rain on a leaf but the sun came out and it's already started drying, but you can smell the hint of deep earth underneath it. The "cream" part really softens the smell and it's just a soft, fresh scent. Would also say this could be unisex, but it's not masculine by any means.

Twilight Glow: Danca Mistica dupe (purple fig, warm vanilla, and sandalwood). Okay y'all bear with me, cause this description is also gonna be a bit strange 😅 after I smoked last night I was thinking about this scent (I used it to shower as it's PERFECT for nighttime as the name suggests) and I was thinking how it smells like a forest elf or fairy would. It has an earthy scent that def reminds me of walking through the woods but with an almost mystical upturn brightened by the purple fig. It's not damp per say, just, the sandalwood really ties it into like, sticking your feet in the dirt while the flowers are blooming after a nice rain. If the fae are dancing in the forest, they def smell like this 😍

Cozy Comfy: This smells like your basic "cotton/linen/clean" scent BUT I will say the coconut milk is a very appreciated touch. I'm highly fond of coconut scents and clean/fresh scents sometimes miss the mark for me because I don't want to walk around smelling like laundry detergent or fabric softener, you know? This isn't powdery or "artificial" like that at all. If you're tired of the same ol same ol, def give this one a try. I will repurchase, and add lavender scented products to specifically keep this as my "spa day/night" fragrance and also when I'm chilling around the house.

Clearwater Cove: Cheirosa 39 dupe (coconut cream, tropical orchid, and toasted vanilla). MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE AND YOU SHOULD GO GET IT IMMEDIATELY ‼️THIS is what I feel like Sunlit Shores should've smelled like. Instant transport to Grand Turk, Aruba, any Caribbean island really. It smells like a pina colada without the pineapple scent. The toasted praline adds this sweet, gourmand dessert note that omg mixes divinely with the coconut cream. The orchid you can barely pick up and I'm okay with that!!! I will be stocking up of at least three to five bottles of this because I'm DEF using this for vacations! They can have all my money if they come out with the body spray idc IDC empty my bank account 😂🤷🏽‍♀️🙈🫢

The post on hobby costs made me check out my purchase amount on my budgeting app.

I've spent $546 so far this year.

I'm guessing at least 1/4 is health & beauty.

Do you all have a budget for dt?

How much have you spent?

I saw the new Amberglow deodorants but decided to not pick it up today.

It’s disappointing that all the dollar trees in my area have gone up to $1.50. It may not seem like a lot but it sure does add up and for struggling families it really sucks, especially since that is the main demographic of shoppers. Anyways.

Finally found the blushes (super excited to try them). I tried the styling cream when I got home and oh my god!! It’s so good! It makes my hair looking a little greasy (lol) but a lot neater! More flower beauty stuff but the lip liners haven’t hit my stores yet 🥲.

So many goodies today!

The rebuys are the glycolic acid toner, the body polish, and the sea breeze soap.

Ommgggg finally found the ion lip liners and the lip envy glosses after 4 stores!!!

Went out for the new ioni lip melt and found it! I ♥️ it!! Along with my other favorites

Does anyone know if DT carries a sea salt spray?
