Scroll Instagram or TikTok and just try to not get the shopping fever. Just. Try. It’s next to impossible to avoid getting lost in the sea of products that our favorite influencers recommend. After all, one of the best parts of social media is following non-celebs who know what they’re talking about when they show off their latest hauls. But, as relatable as our fave accounts may be, a lot of the goodies they share are expensive, right? Enter these amazing Amazon alternatives to pricier name brands.
These just-as-good-if-not-better finds are the perfect way to snag all the best trends out there without hitting a snag in your budget. And we’re not hating on the name brands, either! They’re name brands for a reason, of course. But if you’re looking for some excellent quality options that can save you money, these Amazon alternatives are the way to go.

Lip Glow Oil
No one expects a DIOR product to be inexpensive, so we weren't surprised by the $40 price tag for their fabulous DIOR Addict Lip Glow Oil. We just don't always want to pay that $40. This $6.95 lip oil is being raved about, and at that price, you can get all 4 for less than one tube of Lip Addict.
