Imported beauty products

[borntobequiet]

Is anyone else making sure they have backups of cosmetic and other beauty products imported from the EU, in case of a no deal situation? (I suppose that even products manufactured here depend on imported ingredients, so perhaps I should stock up on those as well.)

I've got at least one of everything we use in case prices go up or there's an issue with stock. Haven't thought specifically about where things are made, just stocked up generally.

I've got extras of cosmetics and toiletries. Price hikes worry me along with supply issues.
I've made use of 3 for 2 at boots and Clinique offers earlier in the year.
The nappies we use are made in Belgium so got a good supply of those.

Clinique, Estée Lauder etc were always loads cheaper in the US than in Europe and my Mum always stockpiled when she went.
Even if Brexit happens which, let's face it seems more unlikely with every day that passes, no changes will come into force other than the pound crashing until Dec 2020 by which time the cosmetics might have gone off.
Oddly, (not cosmetic related necessarily) I live in Italy and many Italian products (Inc food) are cheaper in UK shops than Italian ones. Exact same brand!

Havent my DH travels abroad for work and for years he'd get me Clarins/Clinique etc as it was so much cheaper but these days the exchange rate is so bad that there's not much in it.

I found the Clarins products I use were more expensive in France than here last year. I’ve got a couple of extra bits but can’t afford to really stock up.

Now you have me pondering. I hadn't even thought about this possibility.
