    Drunk Elephant's marula oil is a must for days when our skin craves simple hydration without all the extra ingredients. So when we saw a Trader Joe's version of the product for almost $60 cheaper, we were intrigued. On this week's episode of What the Dupe?, Matthew puts both face oils to the test over a few days. Keep watching to see his full review and to find out if the TJ's formula is a worthy stand-in for the luxury stuff. Then, let us know which dupe-worthy product to try out next.

    In case people don't know, Trader Joe's often just slaps their label over existing higher-priced products. They do this with many of their food items This could be one of them. Don't be fooled by higher-priced products, especially if they have the same ingredients!!! I use TJ's, Unseen Sunscreen which is exactly like Supergoop and many of their other products. I love Trader Joe's!

    Hi there. I used drink elephant marula oil when I bought the Littles in the cute orange bag. Fell in love and have been looking for a substitute ever since! Then today I found it at Trader Joes! Gosh they have such great stuff ll!! …then it led me to looking for a comparison where I found your wonderful video. Thank you so so !I would love to see a lab analysis of both. I think it would be very interesting.

    I just turned 60 and yet I still have *very* oily T-zone facial skin. I bought a bottle of TJ Marula oil to use on the not-oily parts, but I found it too heavy and greasy. Instead of returning it, I'm now using it as a mix-in with my body lotion and I also apply it to my very dry cuticles. It works great for both uses!

    I got the drunk elephant travel bag recently because I had a friend raving about how good it was, so I started trying vit too and I do like it but I agree definitely don't like the price either. Guess I'll be going to Trader Joe's.

    I use Tretinoin at night. Will this oil be fine to use with?

    • @AllAboutLyrics12
      @AllAboutLyrics12 Рік тому +4

      I use Marula oil to soften the dry patches that happen from using tretinoin. A little tiny bit of oil over dry patches and under makeup helps a lot. Im not sure about using it with tretinoin, but if you were to use it it would have to come after the application of tretinoin for added moisture. Hope this helps
