5 £5 or less Bargain Beauty Buys

I thought id do a little feature perhaps once a month or something with products that cost less than £5 that are great value for money.
After all everybody loves a bargain and when you are on a budget then its great to find things that don't cost the earth.


Oil Balancing Cleansing Wipes with Tea tree £1 for 2 packs Primark

These wipes are pretty good for oily or spot prone skin. They do the job just as good as any and at £1 for 2 packs they are ideal for stocking up and saving a few pennies. I don't think any wipes will do the same job as a cleanser but for late nights and quick fixes these are great.


 W7 Africa highlighter £1.99 See post here

Pretty highlighter that is suprisingly good quality for such a cheap price. Read my post for pictures of it on the face.


Sleek blusher in Pan Tao £4.30 

Sleek blushers are such amazing value for money. Pan Tao is a beautiful peach/orange shade which is such a now colour for cheeks.
The pigmentation is just as good if not better than most high end brands. I think this is limited so if i only had a fiver left i think I'd put my money on this one.


 Sleek True Colour Lipstick Peaches & Cream £4.00

A second Sleek product and a new one to me as i only got this shade last week but again the formula is brilliant and i would expect to pay a lot more for this than £4.00
Peaches & Cream is proving to be one of the most popular shades and i can understand why. Full coverage, stand out peachy but with a brightness somehow, its almost a pale coral if that makes sense. Non drying and lasts well too. Gorgeous.


W7 Honolulu Bronzer £1.99 Savers See post here

Last but not least the amazing bronzer that costs just £1.99. Nothing else to say that's not been said in my post. If you can get one then grab it before they sell out.


I'd love some feedback as to whether or not you like this post so i can decide if t make it a regular feature or not ???

    Are the W7 products available only from Savers or can you get them other places as well? I have no idea where my nearest Savers is, lol.
