I have always loved saving money which is why the Dollar Tree is one of my favorite stores. You truly never know what you are going to find which makes it even more fun. I scored some pretty good beauty items that I think you will love too to save some money. Please enjoy!
#1 L.A. Colors Liquid Eyeliner
I have used liquid eyeliner in the past but not recently and really wanted to get some more. I saw this one and though why not since it’s only $1.00. I love the way it went on very smoothly. The brush at the end was also a good quality and left a straight and smooth line. It gave me the results I wanted so I couldn’t be happier compared to others that cost much more.
I will definitely REPURCHASE.
#2 L.A. Colors Nail Polish
I can definitely tell the difference between salon nail polish that cost $9.00 per bottle and something much cheaper at $1.00 per bottle. The more expensive brands do tend to last longer and not chip off as easily. But when I am wanting to try a new color but don’t want to spend a ton on something I may never use again, then the Dollar Tree is the way to go. I love bright colors for my nails, but sometimes want something more neutral or nude. The color pictured above looks awesome on my fingernails.
If I am wanting to paint my toenails before going to the beach, then it would be with my more expensive salon polish so it will last longer in the ocean and sand.
I will definitely REPURCHASE.
#3 Nail File Block:
When I found this one, I was so excited because it brought back so many sweet memories from my childhood that I had forgotten about. I hadn’t seen one in a long time and couldn’t believe I could ever forget about it. My Mom had one when I was little that I would always use when I was playing manicures with my sister. I never really knew what all the different surfaces were for, but I felt so big using it.
I like this file a lot, and don’t get me wrong it worked great but not sure how noticeable the difference in my nails is after using it. It still made me feel better after using it. I will definitely use it when taking the time to give myself a good manicure.
I will definitely REPURCHASE.
#4 PUMICE STONE:
I have bought these many times in the past from beauty supply stores and always loved them. I will usually keep one in the shower to use while I’m showering to keep the heels of my feet soft all the time. Squirt some baby oil gel or shower gel and you are ready to go. Your heels will be baby butt soft.
This one has the same great quality even though it only cost $1. Compared to those in the beauty supply stores, it isn’t a ton cheaper but still saves me about $3-$4.
I will definitely REPURCHASE.
#5 Hot Oil Hair Treatment:
I like to do hot oil treatments on my hair occasionally because I do use straighteners and curling irons on my hair daily. My hair definitely felt moisturized while I was using the treatment in the shower. After I blow dried my hair, I honestly didn’t see a noticeable difference. I do feel that my hair is healthier than it has been in the past but just not sure that it’s the hot oil treatment doing it.
I will LEAVE them next time.
#6 REVITALIZING EYE PADS
Mark didn’t realize I had put these on after washing my face one night, and I was sitting on the couch beside him. He looked over giving me the funniest look like, “What do you have on?” I was very interested to see if these would actually work because during the Spring I do tend to have puffy eyes with the pollen and allergies.
While I was wearing them, it felt very cool and soothing which was really nice. As far as it actually helping in appearance, I can’t honestly say that I saw a big difference.
I will LEAVE them next time.
I hope you will find these beauty scores are perfect for you too and will also save you some money which is never a bad thing. Let me know in the comments below of some of your recent Dollar Tree finds so that I can check them out too.

Bethany, I’m coming over from Up All Night Blogging! This is a great post! I frequent our Dollar Tree and often wonder if, even though it’s only $1, a beauty buy is worth it. I too just purchased the same brand nail polish you mentioned at our Dollar Tree and was happily surprised. I’d been looking for a bright color for spring and I actually found it in this brand for a buck where I hadn’t been able to find that shade in other more expensive brands. I found it stayed on nicely and looked great. I recently invested in a top coat (not something I previously used) and it’s helping my new China Glaze color stay nicer longer so I’ll try it next time I wear the LAC shade as well. Great blog. I’ll be back.
It is so good to have you. I will have to check out that top coat too. It sounds awesome. Great minds think alike with the dollar store nail polish.
Excellent review Bethany.
Sorry to hear that the eye pads didn’t work. I haven’t tried those, but I have tried cucumber slices, and they didn’t work well for me either.
Hey that’s not your fault. At least I only paid a dollar for them after all. That’s the great part about the dollar store is that you don’t have to worry about wasting a lot of money if you want to try something new.
Maybe the eye pads just don’t work for everyone’s skin type. I, on the other hand, have found that they work better than any other product I have tried for the bags under my eyes!
That’s so good to know. Glad that you have found they work for you.
I love the Dollar Tree. That nail file looks awesome! I used to have one like it, but that was yearsssss ago. I will have to go peruse the shelves of my local DT and look for it!
I do too. That nail file is pretty awesome and only for $1. My Mom had one years ago too, and I hadn’t seen one like since then until now. I hope you find one.
I need a new pumice stone. Thanks for the review and recommendation.
You are so welcome. I know you will find it useful, and they work just as good as the more expensive ones.
You could put all of these things in a cute basket (which you can also find at the dollar tree) and use it for a bridesmaid gift or whatever else you need. Looks great and people don’t realize you didn’t pay an arm and a leg for it!
That is such a great idea too. Thanks for sharing that.
