I recently went on a little shopping spree, and I've got to spill the tea on some incredible perfume dupes and other must-have items I discovered.
First things first, let's talk about the buzz: the Forbidden Cherry perfume dupe. You guys, I've seen so many people raving about this one, and I finally got my hands on it. The original Tom Ford scent is iconic but definitely a splurge, so finding something similar at Five Below was a dream. The bottle itself might remind you of those chic glossier perfume bottles, but it's the scent that truly blew me away. It's got that rich, sweet, slightly boozy cherry scent with a hint of almond and floral notes that makes it feel super luxurious. I honestly couldn't believe how close it was! If you're looking for an affordable alternative to get that sophisticated cherry vibe, you absolutely need to try the Vaile Forbidden Cherry perfume. It's perfect for a night out or just when you want to feel a little extra.
But it's not just about the Forbidden Cherry dupe! Five Below has a surprising array of other fragrance bottles. I saw a display with scents like Violet, Crème, and Bloom – these are fantastic if you're looking to build a scent wardrobe without spending a ton. They're great for layering or just for a quick spritz when you're heading out the door. It's like finding a whole list of affordable perfume dupes you didn't even know existed!
Beyond perfumes, I was seriously impressed with their skincare section. My basket ended up overflowing with new skincare finds! I spotted everything from a gentle gel cleanser, which is always a staple, to a hydrating mask with exfoliant pearls that sounds perfect for a spa night at home. And for those of us obsessed with anti-aging, they had a collagen cleansing balm, an overnight collagen mask, and even a glowy oil face serum and glow drop products. It’s amazing how many options they have for different skin concerns. I also picked up some body cream jars in lovely pink and purple shades – perfect for keeping my skin soft and smelling great.
And can we talk about the adorable accessories? I grabbed a cute bow case that came with a watermelon-scented hand sanitizer mist. It’s perfect for clipping onto your bag and adds a little bit of fun to your everyday essentials. They also had a great selection of lip treatment tubes in rose, mint, and espresso mint, plus multi-packs of lip revival balms in strawberry, juicy peach, coconut, and watermelon. My lips are going to be so happy!
Finally, for makeup, I found a whole row of cream blush tubes in shades like flash, midnight, fluff, and bounce. Cream blushes are so in right now for that natural, dewy look, and these were super affordable. Overall, my Five Below beauty haul was a huge success. If you haven't checked out their beauty aisle recently, you're missing out on some serious gems, especially those amazing perfume dupes!
