Everyone is different. My skin is just as happy with Aldi as it is with more expensive stuff. I am currently using Boots no 7 Protect and Perfect and really like the products.

I can tolerate the cheaper stuff, in that I don't have a reaction, but I do definitely notice the difference in the appearance and feel of my skin.

So annoying isn't it! I always think oh I'll try again so I can save money then my skin goes beserk and I end up having to wait ages for it to get back to normal

I have sensitive skin, by now I should have shares in SpaceNK and Cult Beauty. I use Oskia Sunday Riley and Aurelia. None of them cheap all other addictions have had to cease!
