Love Benetint, have used it for years, but am too poor for it now. Can anyone recommend cheaper copies?

Thanks.

Haven't found a decent copy but I do rate Max Factor cream blush (the bright pink one) as a different but equally good dolly looking blusher.

I used to 2true Superdrug range Benetint copy, it smells like washing up liquid. Bleurgh. Was a bit too watery too.
There was something similar in a Glossybox a few months back, it wasn't a copy of benetint but a similar stain type thing. I remember it being good, I'll root around and report back :o.

I bought one in POUNDLAND, I shit you not. It is brilliant, same rosey perfume, same colour, acts exactly like Benetint.

It was Jelly Pong Pong Lip Frosting!
It's very lightweight, has a great dewiness to it when on the cheeks - definitely more posietint than benetint though.
It smells great too, it's pink and though shimmery when on the finger, the shimmer is very fine and more like Becca Shimmering Skin Perfecter than sparkly. It's loovely.
Not too drying on the lips, quite balmy.

The Bodyshop used to do a half decent one but don't know if they still do as I never go in there. I got the one I had as a magazine freebie.

I use the bodyshop one.

I've seen the Poundland one, certainly worth a try.

Thanks all, some good tips here. Will have a look in Poundland, a pound is sounding good!

The Jelly Pong Pong stuff sounds gorgeous Snapes.
