📱 Best Platforms
eBay, Poshmark, Mercari
📖 The Hustle
TJ Maxx and Marshalls carry authentic high-end beauty brands like Tarte, Too Faced, Anastasia Beverly Hills, and MAC at 30-60% off retail. Buy unopened products with clean packaging. Popular palettes, lip sets, and skincare bundles sell fast on eBay and Mercari. Check that the product is not expired and the seal is intact. A $40 Too Faced palette bought for $16 at Marshalls easily resells for $30-35.
🚀 First Step
Visit your nearest TJ Maxx or Marshalls, check the beauty clearance section, and scan 5 unopened brand-name items with the eBay app to check sold prices.
🔑 Keys to Success
- Only buy products with intact seals — opened beauty products cannot be resold on eBay
- Check batch codes online to verify products are not expired before buying
- Gift sets and holiday kits sold after the season have the deepest discounts
