Cheap alternative to Beauty Flash Balm

[BlueberryPancake]

I used to use Beauty Flash Balm when I was working and had money to spare on expensive beauty products but now broke and looking for a cheaper alternative. Any product out there you would recommend that act in a similar way?

i get mine on ebay, miles cheaper

nothing else works as well IMO

cyb- do you put moisturiser under or over the beauty flash balm?

When I was using it (!) I'd put it under moisturiser (if needed) and make up.

So it was eye cream, balm, and tinted moisturiser plus a bit of make up.

I've heard good things about a Superdrug own brand one, but can't remember what it's called.

right thanks

Someone on here (cod?) reckons it's basically vaseline.

Just how good is it? (Desperately needs to update skincare regime)

gg I moisturise, apply BFB then starigt away slap make up on top while its still dampish

I always look better with it, but dont want to rely on it too much!

Blueberry, a cheaper alternative, they say, is Supedrug's Natural High. I've never tried the clairns one, but am happy with the superdrug one. At the mo it's half price too, so only £1.95. Worth a try, I think. I put it on under moisturiser.

no its bascally witch hazel
neve mentioned vaseline

I use Beauty Flash Blam, but have no idea what it's for. I bought some Clarins products recently and they gave me some 1/2 size samples. What is it for?

witch hazel, sorry. It's eight-hour cream that's basically vaseline.

it is NOT witch hazel

this is witch hazel

lol

I love it and deffo look better when I'm wearing it but try to restrict myself to once or twice a week. I didn't like the Superdrug one - too sticky. Dp got me mine for Christmas when they were doing a set which had a full size BFB and a full size hand cream plus a few other bits and pieces, so it worked out at really good value overall.

It's not moisturiser - the lady from Clarins told me I was using it wrong and wasting it.

She said you're only supposed to use it a few times a week, and you DON'T rub it in, you just smooth it over like foundation.

I had a facial a few weeks ago and she mixed a bit of foundation with BFB and the effect was lovely and I've been doing that ever since.

yes mixing it with fopundation is great, I only have mineral or solid foundation atm though

Deffo don't rub it in - it goes all flakey.

this is quite a good site for cheaper Clarins
