Mercadona/spanish buys

I'm in the canaries for a few days and wondered if anyone could recommend any bargain beauty buys? Im near a decent sized Mercadona, and have heard their skincare can be good, but no idea what. There's also the usual Fundo Groupo (? Yellow elephant!!) shop nearby too.

Thanks

Ooh, off to Google primor. Ha I love.Mercadona, but there's also a HiperDino too, love a good wander round a foreign supermarket! Thanks all, I have lots of inspiration.

I thought Mercandona was Spain and HiperDino was Canaries?!

There is also Mercadona in the Canaries, as well as Lidl, Aldi, Carrefour...Hiperdino is the local one in the Canaries and can't be found in mainland Spain. Other Spanish regions have their own regional supermakets as well.

Sorry..I know it’s not beauty but the Portuguese tarts..holy god! Delicious and like 50c. In fact most of their pastries are delicious. The tuna filled one!
My mother lives in Spain and I love shopping in mercadona when I’m visiting.

If your skin has atopic tendencies they now have a moisturiser called CALM in bottle with dispenser. The first time in my life that my skin is in really good condition. I also use the ReGen cream and ditto my face, where my skin had a tendency to peeling it is really plush now. Depends what age you are. I am 51, so there. O and the bergamot hand rinse, love it.
