Also while we’re on the subject of Nivea, their Love Sunshine shower gel. It’s £1 and it smells like holidays in a bottle. ☀
I love this shower gel! Takes me back to being on holiday every time I use it, which is great but also ever so slightly horrible seeing as I have no holidays lined up any time soon 😭

Essence lipliners are really good too. I wear various shades of red and burgundy lipstick every day and resent paying more than a fiver for a pencil. Essence's are all £1-2 each and do the job!

I like the Lash Princess formula but hate the brush. Going to try the volume one recommended here in the pink tube as I only really want volume from mascara and I like a plastic comb-type brush.

I recently bought Boots own cheap shower gel (under a quid) and it's really good, lasts ages, feels more expensive than it is.

Also got a Maybelline blush/highlighter off Amazon for £4 and I'm really impressed with the pigment and blendability. It does look a bit glittery, I'd usually go for matte blusher but this doesn't look too glittery on the face.

I’m about 15 years late to the party but NYX butter glosses. Fiver.

Formula is lovely, so many shades.

I was in Wilkos for something recently and checked out the recommended mascara, but unfortunately every single one had been opened! Hopefully I’ll get a sealed one soon enough.

I always have Aldi mascaras but currently using a Chanel one that was a birthday present. It’s crap compared to my usual Aldi ones.

They do them online, but postage is a bit steep.

Boots Everyday Coconut and Almond conditioner is really really good, silicone free and 75p for a big bottle. A friend recommended it to me and I thought it would be crap but I was impressed.

I love having a bath using Dove Shea Butter and Warm Vanilla caring bath. It cost €3 for a big bottle, I find you don't need a lot to yield a good amount of bubbles and it leaves a lovely vanilla smell on my skin after the bath. I definitely recommend it, feels wayyy more luxurious than it is.

I've used Dove products for years. My regular product of choice if I could afford it would be Body Shop (their coconut range is my absolute fave) but that has to be limited to the occassional treat. Dove is really good though. My skin is so soft and smooth after.
