If you've been following me on Instagram for a while, you'll likely recognise most (if not all) of the products on this list. I’ve repurchased them more times than I can count - not just because they’re easy on the debit card, but because their performance far exceeds their price point, often giving higher-end counterparts a serious run for their money.

And let’s be honest, some of those higher-end brands could really use the competition. They're churning out some absolute shockers at the moment and calling it “innovative.”

Anyway… more on that soon.

For now, or whenever you’re in the market for new makeup, skincare, haircare or bodycare - bookmark this list.
