If you've got a 'Bodycare' shop near you they do a range called Technic. It's very reasonable and you'd probably get a lipstick, blusher and eyeshadow for £10. I use some of the range because some of it's suitable for vegans so I can vouch for it.

I love Beauty Rocket, not sure if its a .co.uk or .com. Someone posted it on here, a few have had bad results but I have ordered about 5 or 6 times and always got my stuff. Its all named brands and its good stuff. Good luck J xDebt free by August 2011 or sooner :A0

I agree - I've ordered from them too and have been really pleased with both the goods and the service (received my order after about 2 or 3 days of placing my order)
They had a big sale on but I am sure it finished last friday... postage is only £1.95 and they have a great little bashed tins section... I'm sure you'd be able to get more than a couple of items for your tenner!

You could try www.halfpriceperfumes.co.uk they do a few little bits of designer make up very nice! They also have lots and lots of offers on every week! Lovelly perfume aswell!
Otherwise try http://www.beautycounterdirect.co.uk/ They claim to have up to 70% off the premium brands...
There is also a post on one of the boards about the Virgin Vie sale..they do some lovelly stuff..
http://www.virginvieathome.com/
A last resort is always ebay I actually got my mum a Chanel gift set (minatures) for around 15 pound was gift wrapped aswell!
Hope all of this helps you.0 -

they normally tell you what is wrong with the item if you click on the details button - it depends what they've got in there ...sometimes the items can have scuff marks on them and then some have damage to the outer cardboard packaging (in which case you could take it out and put it in a pretty gift bag or something?).
It's not just the bashed tins section where there are bargains...The normal sections also have some really good ones - I reckon you'd get a couple of lipsticks, eyeshadow and a make up bag for a tenner!
Good Luck!

Ive used http://www.beautyrocket.co.uk/ loads of times. Can totally reccommend it for cheap, nice looking pressies. I tend to buy a couple of quality named items, put it in a gift box with a few other things (bar of chocs, book) for insant great looking pressie!November wins...a book, a designer handbag (worth £550 :T) and a game. I am now an addict and thank everyone for taking the time to share and post.
