Producs that arw cheap as chips but beauty gold?

[Allthingspretty]

I am seriiously impreased with;
Boots Botanics moisturiser SPf 15 sinks in lovely and doesnt leave my skin greasy

George at Asda gel nail polish -no chipping so far after three days

Superdrug hand cream is great and cheap too! There are some excellent perfumes around for under a tenner too.

Angels on Bare Skin exfoliating cleanser from Lush. Hero product. Maybe not cheap as chips (unless they are expensive gourmet chips ) but I'd happily pay double the price as it is so good and lasts ages.

Shea butter. A few quid for a big pot and it's gorgeous, especially slathered all over winter skin after a bath.

Dr Bronner's liquid soap. Again, not dirt-cheap, but certainly not expensive. Brilliant stuff. I use it in the shower, in the kids' bath, for hand-washing and sometimes for cleaning.

Garnier BB cream. Much much better than the Clinque CC one or the LRP BB.

Garnier gradual tan. Better than st tropez imo.

Olay spf 15 daily moisturiser. About a fiver for 100mls and i love it.

Asda spray suncream.

Collection Gel nail varnish from Superdrug. I think it's about £3 which seems to count as cheap as chips for nail varnish these days Idiot-proof brush.

Flexitol, especially the foot and leg moisturiser

Aveeno body lotion

Superdrug Vitamin E face oil

Radox

Tiny tube of Aveda Hand Relief - it's not cheap (about £6.50 for a tiny tube) but it is so lovely to use that it is worth it

Deep Heat

Max Factor cream blusher - the one that is bright, bright pink in the pot

Revlon nail varnish

I second Garnier BB cream as well.

And how could I forget my Boujois Healthy Mix foundation? About a tenner and it is going to be the first foundation I ever buy twice - and have tried lots of high end ones over the years including Bare Minerals and Bobbi Brown which are supposed to be the best. They isn't

False eyelashes.

Sudocrem

Corn silk powder
Boots face wipes (The cucumber /other variety)

Avon Skin So Soft Original spray oil not only moisturises but also repels mozzies. It's around 3.50 a bottle. My mum swears by it.

Sudocrem - clears spots better than any prescription stuff I've had (and I've had them all)

Bicarbonate of soda - spoonful mixed with any shampoo gets all the build up out of my hair better than clarifying shampoos

Rimmel concealer

Cheap conditioner - any kind for shaving my legs

Mach 3 razors - not particularly cheap but best razor I've used and blades seem to last ages. Much better than razors marketed for women

jamster you shave your legs with conditioner?

Neutrogena body lotion- often on offer @ £4.99 for 400 mls.

Collection (previously collection 2000) concealer

MUA and Sleek palettes- both really good pigmentation and quality for such cheap items

Carmex lipbalm

Barry M nail polish

Vaseline

Yup. Try it - it's loads better than shaving foam etc. Leaves your legs lovely and soft

Oh and it's hair conditioner not fabric conditioner!! Even I'm not that peculiar....

Thanks for the tip. Will definitely try it now x

I always use hair conditioner to shave my legs too, gives a lovely close shave.

Anything by MUA at Superdrug. Especially their eyeshadow pallettes and lipsticks (just £4 and £1 respectively).

I like the Bodyshop BB cream. It's listed at £12.00 but there's always a code lurking about, so the most I've paid is £6 with free delivery. It's fab.

Gliss products for hair are fantastic and so cheap, nothing more than £2.99.

The leave in spray conditioner is fabulous, better than any £10+ product I've ever used.

I second Angels on Bare Skin from Lush. I think a pot was £7 or so but it lasted me over a year and was brilliant for my skin.

Also, there's some facial wipes you can get from Savers in a blue and white packet, less than a quid I think, but they smell like Calvin Klein and are really refreshing.

Boots do a cucumber moisturiser thats less than £3 a pot and is lovely.

Agree with Vaseline.
