7 Dollarama Beauty Products From Popular Brands That Are Way Cheaper Than Big Box Stores

Who doesn't love a good deal?! 💰

Senior Writer

Thrifty shoppers already know that Dollarama is the way to go for most of your everyday needs, but did you know that you can score huge savings on brands that cost way more at big box stores?

I went on a journey to Dollarama and some other big box stores recently and did a little price comparison, to see just how much you can save on beauty and personal care items.

A Four-Pack Of Schick Razors

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $4 ($7.97 at Walmart)

Details: You pick up four razors for $4 at Dollarama, which is $3.97 cheaper than Walmart. A dollar per razor is an excellent bargain.

Dove 2-in-1 Shampoo And Conditioner 

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $4 ($8.49 at Shoppers Drug Mart)

Details: It's more than double this price at Shoppers.

A Wet N Wild Mascara

Details: Get your lashes looking thick and lush and save over $3 at Dollarama.

A Wet N Wild Lipstick

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $1.50 ($4.33 at Walmart)

Details: Save yourself $2.83 by purchasing this at the dollar store.

Two Nivea Lip Balms

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $3 ($5.49 at Shoppers Drug Mart)

Details: Winter is coming, so stock up on lip balms at a cheaper price than at Shoppers.

A Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $4 ($10.49 at Rexall)

Details: Get your brows looking thick and on fleek while saving $6.49.

Revlon Hair Dye

Sarah Rohoman | Narcity

Price: $3.50 ($8.49 at Rexall)

Details: If, like me, you've been going gray lately and choose to cover it up, save yourself almost $5 by shopping at the dollar store.
