Some products I like (Physician's Formula blush), but I am tired of hearing what Oprah uses and doesn't use (no offense, please).

some great dupe ideas.

by Chris213 Friday, October 5, 2012 at 07:11AM Report as inappropriate

Some of the products were definitely over the top in terms of prices for the average woman who has a budget and other people to consider as well. Not having children makes a huge difference in what a person can comfortably spend and their disposable income. There are some things here that dont interest me at all while others I would love to try. I dont think the Clarins product is that far out they are good quality and I do buy from that line, always watching for promotiond and "frequent shopper bonuses. Purchased correctly Shopperd Drug mart in Canada akk==llos significant points accumulation and they can then be redeemed fr product. I average about 400-600 yearly in cash at the store. This involves shopping during bonus times and since it includes everyday itemd l There are definitely great products out there and with promotional points systems you get

oprah? not impressed.

Oprah- eh whatever. Some products look decent.

I do not trust Oprah's choice in books or beauty products.

I'm not a huge Oprah fan, but I know her favorite things lists are famous so this was fun to read. I definitely recommend the Olay Pro-X as a budget version of the Clairsonic Mia. It's a little pricier than the Neutrogena Wave, but it does work very well.

I love splurge and steal ideas.

I love articles like this because they give you some really great ideas about alternative products to use for us kittens. I'm a girlie girl and really love all the products, but unfortunately I can't afford all of Oprah's favorite things, nor do I want them. I like to find my own things that are reasonably priced for me and my budget, and comparable to some of the ones that Oprah loves, if you will. It's all about personal preference, and I'm all for that. I like being able to find products with the same great quality but for less and that is my motto. All-in-all, I love all the great products and info!!!!! Keep it coming!!!!

oh I've been going back and forth between the wave and the Olay Pro-X scrubber i can't decide but its definately been on my wishlist for a long time. I love Oprah, what an awesome lady!!

I love the budget friendly alternatives! I will say that I do believe in my Clairisonic MIA. I purchased the MIA for about half the price of the original, and I love mine! If you don't want to pay for the MIA., pick up the Olay version for a very reasonable price!

great alternatives.

Oprah is such a junk peddler. Thanks for sane alternatives.

by krycekov Thursday, January 12, 2012 at 06:22AM Report as inappropriate

Wow! Fantastic affordable swap suggestions! But the Olay Pro-X Clairsonic wannabe is better (and more similar to the Clairsonic) than the Wave.

great thank you so affordable

I love how the luxury, plus affordable products were mentioned !

Wave was a huge waste of money. I'd go for the new Olay one instead.

by Piggie8 Monday, November 14, 2011 at 11:05PM Report as inappropriate

I love the Wave! In one use my skin was amazingly smoother and clean but not dry! Love LOVE it!

by GIJill Saturday, October 29, 2011 at 05:53AM Report as inappropriate

Thank you for the budge rated alternative!

by MissXu Saturday, October 8, 2011 at 02:27PM Report as inappropriate

Oprah is so over rated

by Bon_Bon Monday, August 15, 2011 at 01:53PM Report as inappropriate

Hmmmmm, usually I go on my own info. Plus, I need items that are in my price range.

by MissPurple Monday, August 1, 2011 at 01:07PM Report as inappropriate

LOVE this article! Like many women, I LOVE and respect Oprah's opinion! Thanks for this great article!!

Sorry Oprah but I'll take Lancaster sunblock over any you recommend! Just because they're the best,not that I have anything against Oprah:)

by selma Thursday, June 30, 2011 at 01:42AM Report as inappropriate

Wonderful tips. I will have to try these alternatives!

by LittleBunny Wednesday, June 29, 2011 at 05:36PM Report as inappropriate

Good to know that there are cheaper alternatives that still work good.

by sarahsuperstar Friday, May 13, 2011 at 07:29PM Report as inappropriate

This gig only is good if you are either in the audience during one of these shows or the manufacturer/seller of one of the items she picks, that's all.

i love to try out new bath items i love lushh!

I LOOOOOOVE Too Faced's pink retractable kabuki brush. It's super soft, incredibly dense, and cute.

by LipglossandSpandex Friday, April 8, 2011 at 09:46PM Report as inappropriate

i agree with the other posters: why is everything she endorses so expensive?! on the other hand, i would love to be in the audience for one of these favorite things shows!!

by mlenaei Tuesday, March 29, 2011 at 09:13AM Report as inappropriate

no one cares what oprah likes, she has all the momey in the world

by judyangel101 Wednesday, February 23, 2011 at 01:46PM Report as inappropriate

Oprah's opinion is of no interest to me.

by LittleBunny Wednesday, February 23, 2011 at 07:18AM Report as inappropriate

why do we all care what Oprah likes???

by Bon_Bon Monday, February 21, 2011 at 03:18PM Report as inappropriate

Too much money

by LittleBunny Tuesday, February 15, 2011 at 08:15AM Report as inappropriate

I love Nars but I just cannot believe that outrageous price! When I spent $20 on a brush I felt like I was being ripped off, lol. This is a fantastic article I am going to look into the loofah slices now.

by pynkNymphette Monday, January 10, 2011 at 10:01PM Report as inappropriate

I like these type of articles (for those of us who aren't the Oprahs of the world!). How insane to pay $75.00 for ONE makeup brush! Geesh!
