  1. @brittneealexus reviewing e.l.f. Cosmetics Bronzing Drops at 00:19 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Elf has a thicker consistency and the Dollar Tree one looks like it has more shimmer than the Elf one, but the colors are pretty similar0:19
    • It's a very orangey color, too much shimmer, and doesn't blend as well
    • See, the Elf one is rolling off
    • If I had to pick one I would probably use the Elf one just for the color being a little less orange tangerine-ish
  2. @brittneealexus reviewing Vaseline All Over Body Balm at 04:04 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Vaseline one is made with paraffin, so it's really slick or smooth, it glides3:46
    • The Vaseline one really is much better as far as a moisturizing stick4:04
    • It does have a little residue, like it doesn't absorb completely in the skin4:11
    • I would just stick with the real brand Vaseline4:29
  3. @brittneealexus reviewing Touchland Hand Sanitizer at 05:18 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Touchland one has a lot of things I can't pronounce, but it's a lot of lubricating... Moisturizing ingredients5:12
    • So not only is it going to clean your hands with the alcohol that dries skin out, it's going to put moisture back in if you care about that5:18
  4. @brittneealexus reviewing Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel at 08:47 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I was using this and I really like this, too. Just the fragrance was too much8:43
    • Smells like some sort of laundry detergent8:47
    • When I would wear this one I could only wear it at night because it was very heavy. It took a long time for my skin to actually absorb it9:29
  5. @brittneealexus reviewing The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors at 08:40 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I recently switched to The Ordinary because it has no fragrance. Fragrance really bothers me8:26
    • For me it works better because I have super oily skin. It helps control the oil a bit8:40
    • It's similar to this, but it's more of like a hair gel texture8:36
  6. @brittneealexus reviewing Extra Care Active Hands Hand Cream at 12:21 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Dollar Tree one uses mostly palm oils which melt faster but they can be drying11:46
    • The Dollar Tree one is a little thicker doesn't melt as fast. It's using mineral oil and mineral oil is used in a lot of hair products more so the cheaper ones. It's a really inexpensive filler12:21
    • The Active Hands one does not. It's going to absorb in your skin and kind of disappear12:40
  7. @brittneealexus reviewing Dollar Tree Claw Clip at 15:07 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The clips are the same actual clip. It's just the design that's a little bit different but I actually prefer the Dollar Tree one14:42
    • So this is more my style15:07
