Best Value for Money

xxlplease

Here we can share our experience of geeting good quality products (clothes, cosmetics etc) for very little money.

My latest discovery:

Essentials from Boots; make-up remover and toner each for 2€. Fragrance free (blue) or cucumber (green) very gentle for my sensitive skin and great value for money . Before I was using quite expensive products and I didn't find them better at all.

Boots Coconut and Almond shampoo/conditioner/leave in conditioner/treatment are all amazing. My hair is in much better condition since I've started using them. And at less than €2 each (plus there are normally offers on too) you can't go wrong! Even my hairdresser can't get over the difference in my hair.

Sounds great, I am going to try it as well

Tesco's coco butter body moisturising cream.

Its about E2.99 and its actually the best Ive ever used - beating dermologica, clarins, e45, etc. I have really dry skin on my elbows etc, but I noticed a difference straight away. And it lasts ages.

Boots Oil Of Evening Primrose Moisturising Crème Bath, its only around €1.50, but its really nice, and leaves your skin really soft and moisturised. I have sensitive skin and it never causes a bad reaction. I would actually prefer it over more expensive brands. Long baths FTW

After trying millions of mascaras i can now swear by this one. Lash Mania by Essence..and its only €2.99. Gives great coverage and volume-highly recommended.

Yess ^^ I have that mascara too its brilliant! I also have the one in the orange tube, Maximum Definition and it is really good

The little nailpolishes are brilliant too, and they have tons of colours. I can't stop myself from getting a new one when I'm in the chemist. I used be addicted to Mavalas nailpolish, but now its the essence nailpolishes

I got bronzing pearls in Aldi recently and they're brilliant I think they were 2.99 or 3.99 they give a lovely natural glow on brow bones etc.. The brand is Suhada.. oh and their concealer pens ( Like the Touch Eclat ) is brilliant too and very reasonable

The Aldi concealer... is it only in one colour? I went into a couple of Aldi's and both of them only had the one colour

I +1 the Aldi concealer. I have used YSL Touche Eclat religiously for 4 years and only used my mam's Aldi one when I had run out. I found the consistency much better and easier to apply.

Its slightly creamier than the YSL and spreads easier. So I have stopped spending €30 on YSL and switched to the Aldi equivalent for €4.59. Bargain!! :D:D
