Most Montagne Jeunesse masques and tonics etc retail at 99p, though if you have a hunt around you can usually find them on offer or a little cheaper.

I swear by the orange face tonic. Perfect before a night out - it really makes your skin glow. It tightens pores and refreshes, and goes on feeling a bit tingly but it's sooooo relaxing!!!

I've yet to try their cellulite masque, but have ordered one - free delivery over £7 on their website, which isn't difficult if you're planning ahead. Their hair masques are amazing too - I tried one after living in Spain and having bleached the red (previous dye) out of my hair it was pretty frazzled, and it completely changed the look to healthy and not at all straw-like.

Hey :wave: I saw these today for 59p each in Bodycare! They had a massive selection too. :j

Just picked up some aloe and vitamin E soap in Asda last night - it is gorgeous nourishing and really cleansing and softening. 41p. Bargain. You can get it in coconut too! Its a decent size bar... I'm really loving it, so if you're like me and need to wash your hands and scrub them with a nail brush, you need this! X

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but here goes! For those frugal members who scrape the last inch out of every tube go to ''The Works'' and look amongst their artist's supplies. There you will find a pack of 10 assorted sizes paint tube squeezers for 99p. If you think it too sad to squeeze your tubes remember that air in your tubes can spoil your expensive creams!

eBay is a good source for Benefit products. I just bought some F..Y.Eye there at about half the shop price.

Fantastic , have just bought some Lemon Aid for about a third of the price:T

I got a Benefit Get Bent eyeliner brush for £3 (best offer, down from £3.99) and £0.99 postage. They normally sell for £12, but it's slight seconds as the writing on the brush is slightly smudged, brush is fab, don't care about the writing! Worth having a search!

Oh, also, really lovely and relatively cheap gel eyeliner from this ebay seller, they take a little longer to get here as they're from an international seller, but they're really vibrant colours, smooth application and they stay put once you've applied, unless you take it off with make up remover/moisturiser.

Blimey!Not had chance to log on in the last few days, some great tips since then! Can recommend the Dr Organics from Holland and Barratt - like the Manuka range personally, lip balm is good - and it's on offer buy one get one half price at the mo. Just bought 2 tubes of the double strength aloe vera gel, thought it could be useful in case I inadvertently get caught in the sun this summer(ok,ok if we get a summer!!) Double whammy if you add some pure lavender essential oil to it for sunburn, by the way:) Might see if I can get some of the SD Optimum line decrease to soften some of my laughter lines!! St Ives body lotions are half price in Tesco I notice and so is a lot of the Johnsons 24 hour range - tried some of the handcream on the strength of a recommendation on this thread and it's great - handy size for keeping in your handbag too- a bargain at only 99p! Have a great weekend, bargain hunters!:EasterBun

Just been directed to this thread from Poundland thread.

Just wanted to say thank you for all the great tips and information.

HAPPY EASTER.

I bought some Benefit Boo Boo Zap on eBay last year. It came with white flaky things floating in and seemed ineffective (and it was a new bottle). I couldn't find an expiry date anywhere on it, but my guess is it was expired. I'd used it before, bought at full price from a store and the stuff is great. The experience made me very wary of buying premium beauty products on eBay.

sorry if posted previously but Superdrug have all the Optimum skin care at half price for Easter, (plus 500 other products). Definitley going to try some now!
