Can't afford Clarins skincare any more - any ideas ?

[sazlocks]

Have used Clarins for a while but two kids and one salary less later there is no way I can afford it. I am just getting to the end of the products I have so I need to find some new ones.
I have combination skin, a bit wrinkly in the eye area ! and a bit dry on the cheeks. Any suggestions about brands that might be worth trying - looking for skincare and make up.
thanks

Boots botanics have a lovely face scrub, serum and moisturiser for very good prices!

I love Superdrug's naturally radiant range and it is very good value.

Simple for daytime and a big tub of e45 for night time! Don't spend much on toiletries me.

I switched from Origins serum to Boots Botanicals (after seeing it on one of those 'spend less' programmes) and love it! Paid around £4 for it - bargain of the century!

(I have very sensitive skin so am doubly chuffed as I didn't react to it.)

Embryolisse is the moisturiser of choice for most makeup artists. It's not 'cheap' but for around £15-20 you get a lot of product and a little goes a long way. Otherwise, sorbolene with 10% Vit E for cleansing. Aloe vera straight from the plant for eye cream (it's the principal ingredient in most eye creams/gels) and 30ml of cold pressed apricot oil mixed with 10 drops each tomato seed/turmeric oil for antiaging serum. Shake up and massage in about five drops of this on damp face just after cleansing.

Yes I agree Clarins is now very expensive especially, now the cost of living as risen. However, there is a good alternative which I've been using the last 12 months. Kiehl's it's not supermarket price but it's not as high priced as Clarins. I've seen results and it's good for lines and helps to keep the skin firm and younger looking. Same quality as Clarins. Good luck I hope I've helped
