1. A TikTok-famous "Soft" perfume rollerball that'll have you smelling like a walking, talking, sugar-filled bakery — all for only $6. It has a hint of sweet citrus, and plenty of reviewers compare it to the smell of warm sugar cookies. Plus, it even reminds reviewers of the popular (and VERY expensive) "Pink Sugar" perfume. 👀

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Like so many, I found this scent on TikTok. I was a bit skeptical at first but finally got around to trying it. First off, this scent smells amazing! Almost every time I've worn it, I receive compliments. It has a sweet smell, almost like warm cake or sugar cookies with a hint of lemon. With such an affordable price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone curious about trying it." —Chrissy

Get it from Amazon for $4.50 (available in two styles). 

2. A pair of "Dreamlux" leggings reviewers can't help but compare to Lululemon thanks to that buttery soft material — but, like, a lot cheaper. They're perfect for running errands, lounging around, or even hitting that squat goal at the gym — because yeah, they're just that comfy.

Amazon

I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My "I'm not like other girls" bit is that for some reason I am always comfier in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They slide on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, "Am I still wearing them??" I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear a legging, and I'm happy to report after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. 

Promising review: "Super comfy. I usually don’t write reviews, I tried this first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for every day and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" —Criselle Johnson

Get them from Amazon for $29+ (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 22 styles). 

3. A Baccarat Rouge 540-inspired moisturizing body wash with white jasmine, red currant, and sweet amber so you can smell as ✨expensive✨ as you feel.

Amazon, Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

See what BuzzFeed Writer Emma Lord has to say about this: "I bought this after being peer-pressured by all the lovely reviews and I'm happy to report it lives up to the hype. The scent is lovely — it has depth with a hint of floral, but it's light and not at all overpowering. My favorite thing about it is how easily it pairs other scents, because I am a body mist gremlin who swaps out her scents every day. The lather is also deeply satisfying and I feel quite refreshed and squeaky clean without ever feeling dry."

Promising review: "Cremo's body wash is nothing short of exceptional. If you’re a fan of luxurious fragrances, this product will quickly become your new favorite. It boasts an incredible scent that perfectly mimics Baccarat Rouge 540 — a fragrance renowned for its sophisticated and captivating aroma. What sets this body wash apart is not just its stunning scent but also its longevity. The fragrance lingers beautifully throughout the day, ensuring you stay enveloped in that luxurious aroma long after your shower." —Ralph D. Thompson II

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three other scents). 

4. A 🍒cherry bag charm🍒 you can clip onto your purse or keys because loving cherries is a personality trait at this rate, and honestly, why not embrace it? This looks pretty much just like the $95 Coach one, and even has a nice feel and weight to it (but like, wayyy less expensive). 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

You can see a similar one in this TikTok!

Promising review: "I was really debating buying the $95 one but figured I spent enough on the bag, so I decided to just get a replica for the cherry. I’m so glad I did! It looks almost exactly like it except for the slight change in hardware color. The quality seems great, and it looks sturdy. I love it! It really gives the bag an extra nice touch." —Oriana Pineda

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in two colors).

5. Atote bag people will ~swear~ is the Longchamp Le Pliage bag at first (and second, and third) glance — after all, it even folds up into a lil' compact rectangle just like it. It's the perfect bag to take along to the office, thanks to how sleek and professional it looks — plus, it's large enough to fit a laptop, toiletry bag, and everything else you could possibly need. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I absolutely love this bag!! I needed something to use when I’m traveling, especially for when I go to trade shows and meetings. I’ve always lugged my backpack everywhere and finally got fed up with it on a trip this past week. I also wanted something that was sophisticated looking and had a full zipper. I love the material because it’s easy to clean. It looks almost exactly like the Longchamp bag, too, which is the main reason why I got it. I’ve actually been using it daily by putting my small purse in it and am able to put other things in it as well (small jacket, water bottle, small reusable bag, etc.) It has two inner pockets, which are near the top of the bag. One is zipped, and one isn’t. It stays on my shoulder and doesn’t slip off, unlike other bags I’ve had. I’m curious to see how well it holds and for how long, but so far I’m very impressed and very happy with the quality!" —Kelsey

Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in four colors).

6. Or an elevatedlaptop tote bag because you deserve to strut into work in style. It's roomy, super versatile, and the perfect alternative to the Béis Work Tote, but a lot less $$$. Reviewers even say they like this one a lot better.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "It’s much more spacious than it looks. It’s very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag and find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, pencil case, two books, makeup bag, water bottle, wallet, lotion, phone and laptop chargers, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you carry it, it doesn’t feel bulky or cumbersome." —Su

"I had purchased the Béis bag in the past and have gone through four of them in one year. This bag is the perfect [alternative] but 100,000x better quality! The lining hasn't ripped like the past bags I've purchased, and it has great compartments and durability. This bag is a must for the quality, style and price!! I will never go back to another brand." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $34.86 (available in 10 styles). 

7. A lingerie bodysuit with an elegant lace pattern and plunging neckline to make you feel ~sexy~ without having to drop $$$ on that expensive Victoria's Secret set you've been eyeing. Believe me, that special someone in your life will surely love it. 😉

Amazon

Promising reviews: "Ok wow! This is a Victoria's Secret or sexier style of lingerie...and for a great price! My husband is going to love it!!! It also has clips on the bottom to just open haha and the lace is so beautiful you would never believe it's from Amazon; it really looks like it is from an expensive lingerie store. WOW!" —Cielo

"From material to size to price, all are TOP TIER!!!! Unbeatable price for such amazing quality material; super soft and comfortable fit! Ordered white for my bridal boudoir shoot and will ABSOLUTELY be ordering every other color!! If you’re debating whether or not to order…ORDER IT!!! By far my favorite lingerie I’ve EVER owned!!" —Destiny

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and six colors).

8. Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion reviewers compare to more expensive brands like Philosophy and Bath and Body Works. This lotion is alllll over your socials thanks to the lightweight, long-lasting moisture — and the fact that it smells like paradise in a tube.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I was worried after some people said the scent was a bit strong, but as someone who is usually sensitive to smells I'm extremely happy with this. Not only does it feel amazing and super creamy, it smells SOOOO good. I love that it feels like expensive body butter and the smell literally lasts all day. 100% recommend" —Carley

Get it from Amazon for$3.99+ (available in two sizes, five other scents, and multi-packs). 

9. A classic herringbone necklace so those strangers you pass by at Starbucks think you ~actually~ spent $13,000+ on a gold necklace. This is so close to the Tiffany HardWear version, no one will believe you were able to snag it for only $20.

Amazon

Promising review: "I’ve been thinking about purchasing the Tiffany version of this necklace but when I saw this one, I decided to purchase it. So glad I did. It is beautiful and very substantial. When I first put it on, couldn’t believe the weight, in a good way. Feels and looks expensive, and the color of the gold is perfect, in my opinion; not too yellow or orangey. Love, love, love this necklace!!!" —FAXA10

Get it from Amazon for $15.19 (available in six styles). 

10. A ~weightless~ liquid cream blush that'll give you a gorgeous, soft, dewy finish. It's easy to blend on your cheeks, and you'll fall in love with how pigmented, long-lasting, and buildable it is! AND apparently (you didn't hear this from me), it's giving Rare Beauty a run for its money *sips tea*.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "The color is so unbelievably beautiful. I’m so glad I picked it. Compliments my skin and hair tones. Just creamy and easy to apply. You also don't have to worry if you applied too much. I like a good sheer blush that isn’t like paint. So creamy and pretty cool container, but kind of a weird applicator. It needs to store it upside down or something to get all the product to drip onto the sponge." —Kyla

Get it from Amazon for $6.39+ (available in three shades and in sets of three). 

11. A seamless, compressive ribbed bodycon jumpsuit oh-so-freakin' similar to the Skims jumpsuit that has dominated your FYP lately, but for like a fraction of the price. It's the perf 'fit for a low-impact workout, a casual outing, or simply modeling for your Insta story. No one has to know that you got it from Amazon.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "RUN. Don't walk. I never write reviews but legit as soon as I put this on, I knew I had to share with the world. So surprisingly thick (no fear of see-through) and stretchy. The ribbed texture is fun and gives that extra snatch effect." —bmg

Get it from Amazon for$19.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 10 colors). 

12. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment for anyone who wants a frizz-free, silky look without paying exorbitant salon prices. Just apply it to wet hair, leave it in for five minutes, and say goodbye to the damaged look your hair has been sporting after years of abuse at the hands of bleach and flat irons. Many reviewers even say this is comparable (or even better) than the pricey Olaplex No.3. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them! 

Promising review: "Like many others, I tried this as a replacement for Olaplex. Honestly, Olaplex never had a great effect on my hair and certainly wasn’t worth the price. This did an unreal job on my hair!! I was skeptical (tried a little bit first because I was petrified it would burn off my hair and I would end up bald!) but lo and behold, it was magic! My hair is so strong, silky, and healthy looking after just one use. Plus, you can’t beat the price! Have already ordered another box. I should also add I have curly/wavy hair that’s been colored to a light brown. Buy it!!" —BB

13. An oversized hoodie, because why pay for an Abercrombie Essential Popover hoodie when this is basically the same thing for so much cheaper? You're gonna wanna snag one (or five) of these ASAP.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I think I like this hoodie better than the Abercrombie Essential hoodie! So soft, and the quality is amazing. Definitely oversized. I want one in every color:)" —Jen Schumacher

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 22 colors and sizes S–XL).

14. An interactive Petcube pet camera with a wide angle and night vision, for peace of mind since you'll have the ability to check in on your furry baby 24/7 — for like a fraction of the price of the famous Furbo. 

Amazon

Check out a TikTok of the Petcube in action. 

Petcube is a California-based small business established in 2012 that specializes in interactive HD pet camera products.

It's also app-enabled and can send you instant notifications, sync with Amazon Alexa, and even access a vet on demand if you notice any weird behaviors.

Promising review: "Unbeatable for the money. I needed a way to keep an eye on a new 4-month-old puppy who kept digging holes in my yard. I didn't expect a lot for $39, but I was pleasantly surprised. The video is quick to get started and very clear, zoom is quick, and the night vision actually works. I haven't used any of the other features yet, but these alone make this a great value! Far exceeding what I expected." —Rick Grisham

Get it from Amazon for $12.49+ (available in multipacks and with a subscription). 

15. A three-pack of vintage-inspired sunglasses to make you look like you dropped money on RayBans, but sans the crippling worry of accidentally dropping 'em. No need to fear losing these bad boys while lounging poolside at that fab resort you booked — these glasses are not only super cute but extremely affordable, so you can keep a backup pair (or two) for the days you misplace these at the tiki bar. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’ve been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great, and with the price point, I don’t have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" —Jessica M

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $18.99 (available in 16 sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs). 

16. An affordable longline sports braif you've always wanted the Lululemon look, but you don't feel like dropping 💸💸💸 on the name brand. The look and material are so comparable to Lulu, no one will believe you were able to snag this from Amazon. Time to get one in every color.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "LOVE. It is super comfortable to wear and is great for supporting my chest when I go on a run. Doesn't collect sweat. Very nice and cool material for hotter environments. I have it in so many colors because I love them so much. HIGHLY recommend!" —Cheyenne

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+(available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 29 colors). 

17. A quilted purse that's really giving ✨Chanel.✨ It's luxurious, has quilt stitching (be still, my beating heart), three compartments, and is super sophisticated-looking. You'll find yourself reaching for this bag on every occasion. The best part? This bag won't cost you a whole month's rent. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I purchased this bag because of the Chanel look and I’ve gotten lots of compliments on this bag. I’m glad I purchased it." —Carrollpickard

"I needed a new everyday bag and wanted it to have a kinda upscale look without having to spend too much. I'm so pleased with this purchase. It is now my favorite every day bag. It's not too big (I don't like carrying big bags), but you can carry a nice amount of stuff in it. The color is nice and feels sturdy. I plan on buying a couple more colors!" —Brittany

Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in 16 colors).

18. Or a chain purse if you've always salivated over the thought of owning Gucci's Dionysus bag, but your bank account says ✨no.✨ This has the same chain style and front clasp, so no one will even be able to tell the difference — don't worry, I won't spill your lil' secret.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Let me spill the tea — it's giving major Gucci vibes! This bag is a total [alternative], and I'm here for it!!!!! It's super cute, perfectly sized, and I'm completely obsessed. The snake print design adds that touch of luxury and edginess that I crave in a purse. Whether I'm rocking a casual look or dolled up for a night out, this bag pulls everything together like magic. The chain detail? For the price, it's everything. Talk about a chic statement piece. If you're all about that Gucci-esque style without breaking the bank then get ready to turn heads and have everyone wondering, 'Is that a Gucci?' Oh honey, it's a fashion secret we'll keep to ourselves." —Rita

Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in 21 colors).

19. A Renpho percussion massager with five different heads and speeds so you can use it all over your body. You can give yourself a great deep muscle massage at a much more affordable rate than the TheraGun that's been sitting in your cart for the last few weeks.

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Helps with pain relief and massage in pressure spots I wasn't able to get before. I had access to use a TheraGun before and haven't noticed any difference between items, and it's at a much lower price point. Whatever extra TheraGun features there might be, I haven't needed and the heads are interchangeable between TheraGun and this. Very happy with my purchase." —tauntaun

"I used a TheraGun for about a month and although it was great, this unit is better suited for my needs. I found the TheraGun to be too powerful on the lowest setting and bulky to handle. Some people prefer a lower setting than the 'professional' brand offers. This unit is also easier to handle when massaging my partner than the TheraGun. This gun goes from a comfortable low setting to very powerful on the highest setting. Much better fit for me and my partner, plus it's got a solid battery life." —Pierremoe

Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in eight colors).

20. A 20-pack (!) of extra-thick magic cleaning pads that will erase any crayon, pen, or scuff marks from... well... just about anything. Walls, floors, tubs, sinks, cars, and shoes — even the decrepit chandelier in the foyer can be cleaned with a lil' bit of elbow grease, some water, and these magical sponges. It's pretty much just like Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, just  ✨cheaper ✨.

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "These are the best. Sooo much better than Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Won't buy those anymore and these will last me a very long time. I scrubbed and they got everything clean and didn't break apart!!! Can even reuse if I wanted." —miguel mendez

"I own a cleaning business and have spent a small fortune on the name brand. I clean everything from condo rentals to long-term lease/residential rentals and I have had to clean unimaginable NASTY, I mean 'pics or it didn't happen' kind of nasty, and these cut right through it. These work just as well as the name brand, if not better, and they seem to last a little longer!" —Keisha Marie

Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $14.95.

21. A set of aesthetic wrist and ankle weights because *yes*, you absolutely CAN look cute even with weights literally strapped to your wrist. And all without having to sell out $50+ on a set of trendy Bala Bangles??? You're gonna be the trendiest person at your gym.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

The weights are covered with a sweatproof, skin-friendly silicone layer that's comfortable, and the adjustable elastic band helps you get the right fit. You can even remove weights as well if needed!

Promising review: "I love these! So great for yoga or mat Pilates. I like that they are 2 pounds each, which is the perfect weight, and you can even take off weight as well. I use them every week for my workouts. Very durable band as well!" —Robyn

Get a pair from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two sizes and 14 colors).

22. An adorable, roomy duffel bag, incredibly similar to Herschel's duffel (but, ya know, waterproof), that will be the perfect accessory for your weekend trip, with the added bonus of being cute enough to not clash with your perfectly curated 'fit.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "This bag is amazing!! It’s the perfect size for all my gym stuff. Clothes, shoes, water bottle, pre-workout, headphones, toiletries, etc., and it can be made smaller or bigger height-wise with these little buttons they have on the side that you can snap down. Very cute. It also has some inside mesh pockets to help separate things better. If you're thinking about it, just buy it! You won’t regret it." —Sarah Brackenrich

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two sizes and dozens of colors).

23. A 6-quart Dutch oven that will elevate your kitchen aesthetics, but won't hurt your wallet like the chef-beloved Le Creuset. This baby heats up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and cooks everything evenly, so it can withstand a bunch of different cooking styles — no problem! Use this baby to cook up some rice, soup, stew, or even some sourdough bread. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I have used this several times now using oven heat at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. No chipping of enamel or any other problems. It works as well as the Staub, maybe better with the enamel interior. Considering the low price, this would be my preferred Dutch oven." —David

"Le Creuset? Don't know her. I have always wanted one of these enamel-covered cast iron beauties, but they were expensive even in outlet stores. I saw this guy after finding a stew recipe that went from stove to oven, and I got it. I am DELIGHTED with this purchase! I've cooked in it several times, including a chili recipe tonight that had to reduce by half. It left a ridiculous ring on the inside, and that sucker wiped right out. I haven't burned or scorched any of my foods and it's pretty, too!" —HerRoyalHighness

Get it from Amazon for $32.01+ (available in three sizes and 10 colors). 

24. Essence's Lash Princess Mascara for those of you who would love a way to get the falsies look for $5! This mascara is incredibly affordable, incredibly volumizing, and lasts the entire day — plus, it comes off so easily, no smudging or makeup remover required! Say goodbye to the days of shelling out for more expensive mascaras like Too Faced Better Than Sex, L'Oreal Telescopic Lift, and many, many more — this one is infinitely better.

Mallory Mower / BuzzFeed

Like many of us on the BuzzFeed Shopping team, my colleague Mal Mower is a huge fan of this mascara: "It was one of my first BuzzFeed Shopping list impulse purchases! I was sold by all the wild customer images (it feels like this stuff makes lashes illegally long!) and positive reviews. I was *so* excited to get my hands on their brown version! I have naturally light lashes and red hair, so black lashes look really unnatural on me. I've loved using the brown and having a color that better complements my skin/hair. You can see my before and after photos above. This stuff is magic."

Promising reviews: "The best I’ve tried so far and I used Dior, Tarte, Two Faced, you name it. I always have a problem with brand-new mascara because they have too much product on the brush, especially first few uses, and my lashes stick together. I didn’t have this problem with this one. I could layer it without any product starting to fall off or my lashes sticking together. And I love that they don’t test on animals." —Detti

Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in black or brown).

25. A set of satin pillowcases that are gentle on hair, meaning you're less likely to experience tangles or frizz, no matter how much you toss and turn. And no, you don't need to spend as much as you would buying the popular Slip pillowcases. 

Amazon

BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Maitland Quitmeyer says this is her go-to satin pillowcase: "I have two Slip pillowcases, and several of these, and actually the Bedsure ones wash up much nicer and retain an incredibly silky smooth feel after dozens of trips through the laundry. They're the only ones I'll buy going forward, and I recommended them to my mom and now she's in love with them too!"

Promising reviews: "I ordered these pillowcases just to see if they could compete with Blissy. Well, they can. I have washed them three times and they came out great. They seem to protect your hair and skin. So, I’m very happy with them." —EMc

"Arguably, they’re softer than my more expensive ones! They did arrive very wrinkled but a quick wash and dry and they’re shiny and wrinkle free. I like the envelope closure a lot more than competing brands zip closure." —Hannah Watkins

Get a set of two from Amazon for $6.99 (available in standard, queen, king, and body pillow sizes and 35 colors).

26. E.l.f. Poreless Putty Primer, with tea tree and vitamin E to smooth out the appearance of wrinkles, blur pores, and get that whole IRL filter look. Plus, it hydrates your skin, lasts all day, and is a lot cheaper (yet incredibly similar to) Tatcha's Silk Canvas primer! Time to make this a staple in your makeup routine.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

This stuff is gold. I'm relatively new to the Poreless Putty Primer fandom but now that I'm here, I'm not leaving anytime soon. This makes SUCH a difference in how my foundation goes on, and it makes it look as close to poreless as I think is humanly possible — and maintains the smooth look for many hours! Just be sure to let it sit for a little bit before applying your foundation.

Promising review: "Okay so first nothing will make you 'poreless' but this stuff is amazing. Will even out fine lines and help with super porous areas; my T-zone [has really visible] pores and this definitely gave me a boost in confidence. I would highly recommend. Especially to those not to familiar with makeup, this is a game changer. Honestly it works better than my $30 primer from Urban Decay and lasts all day. I am oily so I usually blot some powder on later in the day but if you have dry skin this could be the ultimate game changer!" —Olivia

Get it from Amazon for $10.

27. A pair of Cushionaire cork-bottom sandalsif you want that Mayari Birks feel but without that higher ticket price. They're incredibly flexible, so they're comfortable to wear for long walks across the beach or through the outlet mall. They have over 75,000 ratings on Amazon, and reviewers basically swear by them!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought these sandals before a three-week trip in Europe; I didn't want to pay for Birks but did want something in similar style with good arch support. I was a little skeptical about the low price but gave them a shot...and they were the MOST comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I walked over 120 miles in them in three weeks on our trip and never once had foot pain. They broke in so quickly and were very supportive from the get-go — and still are! Highly recommend." —Han Lin

Get them from Amazon for $24.48+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 21 styles).

28. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks to give you soft and supple lips for less than half the price of the popular Laneige lip mask. These masks use ingredients like berry extract and vitamin C to target dry and cracked lips while you sleep. There are three different scents, so you can share them with friends — or hoard them all for yourself.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

For reference, the Laneige lip mask contains 20 grams of product, while each of these measures 5 grams, or 15 grams for the entire set. So even with product sizes taken into account, these are a much better deal! 

Promising review: "It’s been four months since ordering this and it’s now part of my nightly routine. I can’t go to bed before putting this on. I highly recommend this! And it’s worth it to get the three-pack. The flavors are not overly sweet and I think my favorite is the berry. I like it more than the Laneige night lip mask. For me, Laneige absorbs pretty quickly and in the morning I feel like my lips are dry again. With these, my still lips feel moisturized in the morning. It has a thicker consistency. I used to get dry/peeling lips pretty often as I’m outdoors/in the ocean a lot. However, since incorporating this in my routine, I haven’t had peeling lips in a long time. Loooove these!" —Angela

Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (available in five sets). 

29. L'Oreal's illuminating Lumi Glotion for those of you who want that perfect "no-makeup" look. You can use this in place of foundation or simply add it to your existing makeup look for a bit of a glow. Plus, it's under $15, so it's the perfect substitute for the pricier options like Glossier Futuredew and Drunk Elephant's D-Bronzi Drops. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Similar to the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops but half the cost!!! Definitely has more shimmer/glow to it." —Taylor Luckhardt

"This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I apply after moisturizer and makeup, highlighting under my eyes and brow bones. Not too sparkly, just makes me look like I’ve had enough coffee. Seems to last through hot and sweaty Florida days, so that’s a plus. I’ve tried other luminizers, and for me they are usually too sparkly or weirdly colored. I tried an $$ Glossier one that remained strangely sticky the whole time it was on my skin." —DLW

Get it from Amazon for $13.98 (available in six shades).

30. A fanny pack to keep your most valuable items strapped close to your chest — it's necessary while you weave through a busy mall or an overpopulated airport terminal. And it's striking just how closely it resembles the Lululemon belt bag. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’m SOO impressed with the quality of this bag! I’ve worn the Lululemon belt bag and I gotta say, this is pretty similar. Almost identical, except the Lululemon is a tiny bit smaller size. The Lululemon one also has a plastic zipper but this Amazon one is metal. I prefer the plastic but this one is OK. It might be better than Lululemon JUST for the fact that they have so many color options!" —Em

Get it from Amazon for $12.98 (available in 39 styles). 

31. A pair of stylish teardrop earrings so much cheaper than the (very) expensive Bottega Veneta ones that look exactly like them. These gold-plated earrings may look heavy, but reviewers swear they're lightweight and perfect for those with sensitive ears. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! If I didn't know any better, I would have said these are the Bottega Drop Earrings. I personally love the smaller ones. I have not ordered the larger ones yet. Smaller ones are truthfully the perfect size. We love a good alternative because who has $800+ to spend on the Bottegas." —Brittany

Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 11 colors, two-packs, and an extra-large size). 

32. Amidi corset dress to make you feel like you're a modern-day princess just taking a walk through the woods. It has a back cinch and a front tie, basically all the same features as the TikTok-famous House of CB Carmen dress (but you know, not $225) — your little heart will be aflutter at the sight of this cutesy dress. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Check it out on TikTok.

Promising reviews: "Bought this dress because I always wanted to get the House of CB dress but didn’t want to pay over $250 for it. It’s honestly so good! I got the size large in this since they didn’t have my normal sizes, which are small to medium (I have a bigger chest, so I tend to size up). But since this has a corset back, I was able to cinch it up really tight and it fit perfectly!" —Chris Herfurth Kennedy

"Beautiful, stunning perfection. This may be the best thing I've ever bought on Amazon. The corset in the back makes it fit like it was made for me. It's double-lined and not see-through at all, even though it's white. The straps are adjustable, the slit is a good height, and the fabric is slightly stretchy. I cannot say enough good things about it. It did come slightly wrinkly in the skirt, but nothing that a good steam won't fix." —Shoshanna

Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in 20 colors/styles and sizes 0–14).

33. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water that will gently cleanse your skin and lift away even waterproof makeup, along with dirt and excess oil. Reviewers even prefer this to Bioderma, which is more than double the price. 

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I was skeptical about this product at first but I am so glad I decided to buy it. It really removes my makeup, even waterproof mascara with ease. It has no smell and doesn't leave my face oily. It reminds me of my Bioderma that I got in the UK. And for this price, amazing!" —Kat

"I've been using makeup wipes my whole life because I didn't even know this existed. I saw it in stores but nobody ever told me what this was. This is literally amazing, buyreusable pads and this and you're set for life. I'm really upset nobody ever told me what this stuff was. I don't understand why makeup wipes even exist...this cleanses your face, takes off your makeup. Nobody should not know what this stuff is." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.97.

BTW, this is our budget pick for the best makeup remover!

34. Slingback heels so similar to Chanel, you'll find yourself triple-checking the price just in case! You can pair 'em with slacks or a cutesy lil' dress — you'll basically be radiating luxury.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This Chanel [alternative] is very in style right now. I wear them to work a lot with dark denim and a blazer. Or white jeans and a blazer. The heel is not too high, so it gives my 5’4” frame a little lift but not too much to get achy feet. I like the sling back because it stays on without blistering or moving around, and adds extra interest other than my solid black or nude pumps I wear to the office every day. I’m a size 6 with a narrow foot and these were true to size. I’m sure I’ll get many years out of these shoes. They are a staple for the wardrobe without the hefty Chanel price tag. Love them!" —ND

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in sizes 5–12).

35. And a pair of slip-on loafer mules with the iconic gold clasp that'll have your friends swearingggg they're Gucci. Sophistication, meet an affordable price tag. Yeah, you def need these ASAP.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Such cute shoes that are maybe even better than the designer inspiration! I ordered a 37 and usually am a 6.5. They fit perfectly. The footbed is more padded than the designer version. Leather is soft and comfortable on the foot. Sole is not slippery." —Emily Wilson

"The shoes come very nicely packaged! These are my favorite shoes, once you break them in they are like BUTTER. I have bought two pairs myself, I own them in black and in white. My mom has them in black and wears them to work every day; she wanted to have a backup pair bc she loves them SO much. My brother wants to get a pair, too. LOL. I could not recommend these shoes more; I get so many compliments…people even think they are Gucci!" —Caroline King

Get it from Amazon for $49.89+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 10 colors).

36. A faux pearl choker so dainty and elegant, Vivienne Westwood herself will be impressed by how ridiculously similar it looks to the real one. Snag one of these to add a bit of "ooh la la 🥂" to any 'fit you throw together.  

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Run, Forrest, run!! Don’t walk!! This is a perfect Vivienne Westwood [alternative]. I bought this when I didn’t have enough money for the real one, but unless you do a microscopic closeup of the two, this necklace is the literal perfect [copy] of the original. It feels pretty weighty and doesn’t tarnish easily. The size is also perfect and the color matches the real one better than the other ones in the market. The packaging was also super cute and protective." —Ziaaaa

Get a two-pack (gold and silver) from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two other styles).

37. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress sure to be your go-to piece any time of year. It's a gorgeous and simple dress that you'll find yourself slipping on every time you have an event where you wanna feel ✨fancy. ✨ Plus, it's so incredibly similar to the popular Skims one, but affordable enough that you can actually buy one in every color.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Reviewers agree that if you want it fitted, size down.

Promising reviews: "I saw this girl wearing this exact style of dress with a Skims tag on the back, and honestly, it made me so grateful that I purchased this dress instead. It looks exactly like the Skims version, and I could be biased, but the material of this dress looked better than the Skims one. If you want it to be a little snug, I would definitely recommend sizing down one size from your normal size. So freaking comfortable and made out of thick material." —Kaitlyn

"I have the Skims dress in black and wanted to look for a cheaper version, but read reviews and some said that it is a bit looser than expected. I would agree that the small is a bit loose. If you want a snatched look, definitely get a size smaller, as it is very stretchy. I'm 5' tall so this is a bit long on me, even when I wear heels. In comparison to the Skims, the material is smoother while Skims has a ribbed texture. You honestly can't tell the difference. Good bang for your buck, if you ask me!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in sizes XXS–XL and eight colors).

38. Or a ribbed square-neck, long-sleeve maxi dress, also incredibly similar to the Skims one for a fraction of the price. It's soft, it's stretchy, and it's uber comfy, so you'll find yourself reaching for this piece almost every single day.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’d been looking for a Skims alternative — I have the Skims dress, love it, and wanted it in another color. Ordered a size large, which is my normal size, and it fit perfectly! I’m so very happy with my purchase! Literally half the price of Skims and it's identical! If you’ve tried the Skims dress, go ahead and order, you won’t be disappointed!" —Savvychique

Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and nine colors).

39. Maybelline's Cheek Heat gel-cream blush that's about one-third the price of Glossier's Cloud Paint and gives a nice touch of color to your cheeks with only a dot or two. It's super pigmented, buildable, and ridiculously easy to use. Seriously, no one will even be able to tell the difference between this and the more expensive option.

Emma Lord / BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: "I'm a Glossier Cloud Paint stan, so I'll continue to buy it, but I love this affordable alternative, too! It spreads on super easily and can either go on sheer or build for a bolder effect. I got the Rose Flush shade and enjoy it for ~everyday wear~ since it's so easy to squirt a bit on my fingers, swirl it into my cheeks, and be on my merry way. It lasts all day and looks super natural to boot!" 

Promising review: "This is a great, cheap alternative to Glossier Cloud Paint. It’s less pigmented and blends more easily, so it looks very natural." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $5.57+ (available in six shades). 

40. A sleeveless halter bodysuit so you don't have to overpay for a closet staple ever again. Its buttery soft feel reminds reviewers of the famous Skims one, with some even claiming that they prefer it to the name brand! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Some reviewers said that they were able to skip wearing a bra with it!

Promising reviews: "Okay this is so good. I had the Zara bodysuit identical to this, but it quickly got stretched out, so I tried this one out. It is 10 times better than that one. The fit is perfect, it hugs you just right, and is supportive enough that I won’t wear a bra. Also, not see-through at all! Amazing. Need in all the colors." —Dawn E.

"Saw these in a TikTok, and I took a chance. The sherbet orange one looks just like the picture, and it’s double-layered material, so it’s not see-through. It’s smooth material and lays flat. Will def buy more." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $19.97+(available in sizes XS–XXL and 29 colors). 

41. A cubic zirconia cuff that'll have strangers actually thinking you spent (wait, checks notes) $17,000 😱 on the Cartier Love Bracelet. Not only is it less than $12, but you don't need to screw it on — unlike the way too ridiculously expensive version.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is a product where you can’t say “you get what you paid for” because it really looks sophisticated. It doesn’t look cheap. I bought this because the Cartier love bracelets are very expensive and I don’t like doing the screw because I don’t plan to always wear them since I have a little kid and sometimes it’s uncomfortable. If you want a Cartier love bracelet [alternative], this is it! Easy to open and close. Very flawless. Why did I just think about this!? Lol." —Shiexil

Get it from Amazon for $11.03+ (available in three finishes, nine other styles, and five sizes).

42. And on that note, a cubic zirconia ring because you've always wanted the Cartier Love Ring to match, but not the price attached to it. It's simple, it's elegant, and it's pretty much guaranteed to never go out of style. Time to get one in every metal.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "The perfect non-name-brand ring you can find, honestly. I wasn't looking for a Cartier knock-off when I found this ring, but I have had people ask me if it's the real deal. I honestly love this ring, though; the sizing was accurate, it is weighted well, none of the 'diamonds' have fallen off, and it hasn't tarnished! I've worn it daily for almost a year now and it has held up well. It has some very small scratches on it, but that's typical of most rings. For the price, I am super happy with this ring and I honestly can't believe how well it has handled everything I've put it through." —Eva Richterkessing

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three finishes, two styles, and sizes 5–12).

43. A classic pleated tennis skirt to make it look like you belong at a country club tennis court — no one's gotta know you've got a budget. Reviewers have compared these to Nike, Alo, and Aritzia — hello, bougie!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I LOVE this skirt! I have the original Nike one and they are identical. The only difference is that it doesn’t have a logo on it, but tbh, I prefer the no-logo look. It’s such a good buy and SO comfortable!" —Tayler

"I was skeptical at first but once it arrived! WOW! I love this skirt! I need one in every color now. Very comfortable, breathable fabric, and the skirts have secret pockets on the inside of the shorts! I really like it, and the length is perfect! Oh, and there’s a super cool thick band around the skirt top. It looks very nice I received a lot of compliments on skirt! Definitely recommend! ❤️" —VM

Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in nine colors and XS–XXL).

44. Or a high-waisted mini skirt that looks incredibly familiar (hello, Aritzia? Is that you?) and made with a satiny material that is sure to make you feel ~très chic~. This skirt comes in a bunch of different colors, so you can snag a bunch of 'em for the same price as a single name-brand one — and no one will even be able to tell the difference.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "It was the perfect mini length, not too short. Keep in mind this skirt is very high waisted, if that isn’t what you’re looking for. Ordered the white and it’s not see through if worn with nude underwear. I love it! Looks just like the one from Aritzia for $100. Might ordered another color :): —Sam Waldbillig

"I LIVE in these skirts. I am back to order more so I figured I would leave a review. These skirts make any outfit standout. Last night I paired the off-white skirt with a black turtleneck, scarf, and knee high boots. Let me tell you, it was giving ELEGANT. I definitely recommend these skirts. They also hold up over time and iron well. Fits true to size." —LarZ

Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 34 colors/styles).

45. A simple, gorgeous tennis bracelet to add some ✨sparkle✨ to your wrist, but ya know, without costing you the down payment of a nice house in the suburbs. This elegant piece looks just like Swarovski, and reviewers say it doesn't tarnish, so it's bound to last you a lifetime. After all, diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but cubic zirconia is her lover. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Soooo pretty. It’s 100% a Swarovski [alternative] for so cheap. Looks exactly like the photo, and I wear it every day." —Trysten Walters

"I just lost my very real gold tennis bracelet. I’ve heard good things about this company and decided to order one that looked like the one I lost. It just came in, and it looks as nice as my real one. I don’t know how it will do as time goes, but for $19, it’s a great buy." —Alina

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in three lengths, 14-karat gold-plated or 18-karat gold vermeil, and in yellow, rose, or white gold). 

46. Oversized square sunglasses that will make your friends think you shelled out the big bucks for Bottega Veneta, when really all it cost you was the price of two meals at Chick-fil-A. Plus, you won't cry when you accidentally lose a pair or scratch them up at the beach — which, let's be honest, is more likely to happen than not. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Love these so so much. I wanted the chic Bottega Veneta designer pair, but these look exactly like those for less than $20. Deal of the century. They are comfortable and extremely well made and I seriously can’t get over the price. I’m thinking about buying another color because I love them so much." —Kam

"I saw these sunglasses on TikTok a couple of months ago and finally ordered them. I’m so glad I did. I LOVE them!! They’re such good quality! And I love the way they look on. I’d definitely buy them again!!" —Sammie Batey

Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 14 colors). 

47. Eve Hansen Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum to make you feel like you just got a facial, when really all you did was apply a few drops of this lil' magic potion. It'll hydrate your skin, reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles, smooth fine lines, boost overall hydration, and create a radiant glow✨! Plus, reviewers even compare it to TNS Recovery Complex serum, which is literally over $200 for a 1-ounce bottle (YIKES).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "So far I have used about four bottles of this product. I use it like a serum and put a few drops on my face and décolleté before I apply moisturizer in the morning or night cream. I see the same outstanding results I did see with the TNS Serum — just for a fraction of the price!!!" —nana bendick

Get it from Amazon for $17.98.

48. A full-zip track jacket because dropping $100+ on that Lululemon Define jacket honestly does not seem like the best financial decision at this time — but honestly, why would you, when this baby is so similar and literally a fraction of the price?! And yeah, don't worry, it even has the thumb holes.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Some versions of the jacket have pockets, too!

Promising review: "TikTok brought me here! I saw many reviews for the Lululemon BBL jacket; however, I was not ready to spend over $100 on a jacket. I’m a frugal gal. I absolutely love this jacket; my boyfriend told me it looked great, and I got many compliments. Truly the perfect alternative for the BBL jacket!" —Bri Campos

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 15 colors).

49. An expensive-looking faux-leather belt that is sure to become the focal piece of your outfit. Is it actually Gucci? Perhaps not. But those buddies you meet weekly for brunch don't gotta know that. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This (to me) is catchier than the actual Gucci belt and also a great price. The design is sophisticated; the leather strap and clasp do not feel cheap. The leather strap is rigid, but not too rigid. The clasp has the two loops that clasp into the holes in the leather strap. It holds nicely and is comfortable to wear, put on/ take off. I felt that this accessory (when added to any outfit) can make any outfit pop! Definitely a great statement piece to own!" —helzbelz

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in seven colors).

50. Nyx Fat Oil Lip Drip, because why spend $40+ on that one Dior lip oil, when you can have basically the same thing for $9?! It's hydrating (thank you, vegan squalane), has beautiful sheer colors, and, despite the gloss, is surprisingly not sticky! Literally gorgeous. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have Fenty Cherry Treat, a lip oil from Dior, and several other brands that were $20 or more…and the Nyx Fat Oil is better! Same consistency as the others, but a little more color, which is a good thing. About as long lasting as any other thick lipgloss. It’s always awesome to find a less expensive [option] for the high-end products I like." —Jennifer

Get it from Amazon for $8.70 (available in 14 shades). 

51. A loungewear set for those of you who don't want to sacrifice comfort for style. You can lounge around confident in your fashionista status with a set that looks ridiculously similar to the Skims set the Kardashians are known to adore.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "No joke, these are pretty much exactly the same as my Skims lounge set for half the price. The pants graze the tops of my feet even when I wear them high-waisted at my belly button, so I think they’re plenty long. The robe is like wearing a blanket, but still looks put together. Anyway, I’m back here to buy a second color because I loved them so much!" —Jenna

Get the three-piece set from Amazon for $54.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 24 colors).
