There’s something super satisfying about finding amazing beauty products that don’t cost the earth. Like most of us, I don’t have the budget to to only ever use high end products and to be honest, why bother when you can find great products that perform just as well for a fraction of the price tag? Today I’m sharing some of my old favourites and some newer discoveries.

FRIDAY FIVE: DUTY FREE WISHLIST | THE REPURCHASES
I talked last week about the items I’m hoping to scout out in Duty Free later this month. Today I thought I’d share my second wishlist – the essential repurchases that I always try to buy when I’m in Duty Free to save a few pennies on the products I know I’ll always use.
These are all products that would make any Holy Grail list of mine – I’ve been using them for years and can’t see them getting set aside anytime soon. They’re all amazing and I know I can rely on them to always work.
- MAC Pro Longwear Foundation, £25.50
- MAC Face & Body Foundation, £22
- Dior DIORSHOW Mascara, £25.50
- Benefit Hoola Bronzer, £23.50
- Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia Cologne, £85

STEAL HER STYLE: KHLOE KARDASHIAN
Am I the only person who massively over organises before they go on holiday? Not only do I have packing lists for everything from clothes to beauty products, I also plan out my “airport outfit” well in advance.
I spotted this picture of Khloe Kardashian and loved the look. I’m planning on taking elements of this for my outfit to travel in – although I’ll be ditching the high heels and mac for the airport because, well, I’m not a Kardashian! Flats all the way, for hiking through the airport, and an oversized cardigan that will keep me cosy throughout the flight.
Here’s how to get the look…
