66 | We Tested Trader Joe’s Skincare Dupes… Here’s What Surprised Us

Trader Joe’s skincare dupes are all over TikTok… so we tested them. In this Beauty Lab Podcast episode, we review Trader Joe’s skincare products that people say are “dupes” for popular brands like Drunk Elephant, SkinCeuticals, Clinique, Supergoop, Farmacy, Laneige, and L’Occitane. We share what each product felt like, who it may work best for, and the price comparisons that honestly shocked us. And reminder: “dupe” means similar look/feel/ingredients — not necessarily identical formulas. Which Trader Joe’s skincare product should we test next? Drop your favorites in the comments.
