TikTok: Is it worth it?

Most teenagers find themselves scrolling endlessly on TikTok every night before bed. Recently, TikTok added a shop that is easily accessible to all app users. It includes products like the infamous Sol de Janeiro perfume, Pixi On-the-Glow blush stick and the Rare Beauty soft pinch liquid blush. So, how does it compare to other online shops?
On-the-Glow Pixi blush is a formula mixed with aloe vera, ginseng and a distinctive mix of fruit extracts. These all combine to make the perfect shade. It is also packed with multiple vitamins for antioxidant benefits. The tinted moisture stick comes in three shades, ruby, fleur and juicy. Ruby is an intense red, fleur is a soft pink and juicy is a subtle orange. These shades come packaged in a tube like shape with 0.6 ounces of product. On-the-Glow Pixi blush is typically applied on the cheeks, but is also a great use for color on the eyes or lips.
Pixi is celebrating their 24th anniversary since releasing their brand in 1999. Their products were launched in a boutique in Soho, London. It started off as a local business with just a few makeup products. The newly released On-the-Glow blush stick widened their brand awareness. Pixi products can now be found online and in store at Ulta Beauty. It is also in stock in multiple stores worldwide and on the viral TikTok shop.
MARKET.live is one of the many shops on TikTok with a 4.8 star review. The shop sells mainly makeup products and the On-the-Glow stick is one of them. The stick is sold for $18 with free shipping and a delivery time within five to 11 business days. All three shades of the On-the-Glow stick are available for purchase in the TikTok shop.
Ulta Beauty is a widely spread business across the United States. It is a reliable source for many influencers and individuals. Their products can be accessed easily online and in store. Ulta Beauty advertises thousands of brands like Dior, Morphe and Pixi. The Pixi On-the-Glow stick is available to purchase for $18 each. In store, the only extra fee is tax, but Ulta Beauty online requires a purchase of $35, or more, for free shipping. Standard shipping is the most common with an additional $6.95 added to your total. With estimated tax and standard shipping, the total is $24.95.
Overall, both shops sell the same product and all three shades for $18 each. In fact, the only difference between the TikTok shop and Ulta Beauty online is the price for shipping. TikTok shop has a variety of products from different sellers. Rugs, pens and even water bottles are available for purchase. All listings on TikTok shop are relative to the verified product. Sometimes even identical and the Pixi On-the-Glow blush moisture stick proves that.
