One shopper spotted the deal and took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share it with others.
They posted a screenshot of the Elemis products available on Home Bargains' website, with the caption: "You can have delivery too".
In response, one user wrote: " Poundland have the Elemis mask too for £5."
Another similarly commented: "I think I have seen the mask advertised for £5 at Poundland.
"Still a brilliant price at HB just in case anyone else is interested."
Another user wrote: "Did this just get approved because there's no sign of it for me?"
It comes as Home Bargains recently released a dupe of Elemis' Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm.
It is less than £3 - £46 cheaper than the Elemis version.
One shopper spotted the affordable dupe in her local store and shared it on social media.
She said: "Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm dupe at Home Bargains for only £2.99
"Not checked ingredients etc, just noticed this is almost identical to the Elemis product so thought some of you may be interested."

5 things you didn't know about Home Bargains
Home Bargains was founded by Tom Morris
It's official name is TJ Morris Ltd but trades as Home Bargains
The first store was opened in Liverpool in 1976
Around 30% of the stores range comprises clearance lines
There are 575 stores nationwide
Home Bargains, a British variety store and garden centre chain, is one of the UK's fastest growing discount retailers.
It was founded in 1976 by Tom Morris in Liverpool.
The retailer is cracking down on shoplifting by bringing in a major change to self-checkouts.
Home Bargains is deploying AI cameras that will automatically spot items leaving the shop that haven't been scanned.
If anyone leaves the store after using the self-checkout, without having scanned a product, the hi-tech cameras will flag to staff that something is being stolen.
Home Bargains is collaborating with tech firm SAI, Storewide Active Intelligence and AI-business Everseen to install the software into its CCTV.
SAI described the technology as converting regular security cameras into "specialised and capable in-store AI assistants."
As of right now, there are only four Home Bargains branches with self-checkout services.
How to save money on your food shop
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save hundreds of pounds a year:
Odd boxes - plenty of retailers offer slightly misshapen fruit and veg or surplus food at a discounted price.
Lidl sells five kilos of fruit and veg for just £1.50 through its Waste Not scheme while Aldi shoppers can get Too Good to Go bags which contain £10 worth of all kinds of products for £3.30.
Sainsbury's also sells £2 "Taste Me, Don't Waste Me" fruit and veg boxes to help shoppers reduced food waste and save cash.
Food waste apps - food waste apps work by helping shops, cafes, restaurants and other businesses shift stock that is due to go out of date and passing it on to members of the public.
Some of the most notable ones include Too Good to Go and Olio.
Too Good to Go's app is free to sign up to and is used by millions of people across the UK, letting users buy food at a discount.
Olio works similarly, except users can collect both food and other household items for free from neighbours and businesses.
Yellow sticker bargains - yellow sticker bargains, sometimes orange and red in certain supermarkets, are a great way of getting food on the cheap.
But what time to head out to get the best deals varies depending on the retailer. You can see the best times for each supermarket here.
Super cheap bargains - sign up to bargain hunter Facebook groups like Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK where shoppers regularly post hauls they've found on the cheap, including food finds.
"Downshift" - you will almost always save money going for a supermarket's own-brand economy lines rather than premium brands.
The move to lower-tier ranges, also known as "downshifting" and hailed by consumer expert Martin Lewis, could save you hundreds of pounds a year on your food shop.

Canada agrees to ratify Britain's accession to major trans-Pacific trade pact
Ottawa will seek to introduce legislation to its parliament this autumn to approve Britain's entry to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP). The UK joined the bloc in 2024, but Canada is yet to formally endorse its membership – meaning British exports to the country are not covered by the reduction in tariffs outlined in the pact. Following a bilateral meeting between the Prime Minister and his Canadian counterpart in Ottawa's Parliament Hill on Sunday, Downing Street said the move would bring 'huge benefits' to UK businesses. Ahead of the @G7, Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer and I are meeting in Ottawa to discuss how Canada and the United Kingdom can work more closely together — to expand trade, create more opportunities for our workers and businesses, and strengthen transatlantic security. — Mark Carney (@MarkJCarney) June 15, 2025 The two leaders will also look to work through sticking points in a rollover British-Canadian trade deal after negotiations were suspended under the previous Tory government amid disputes over beef and cheese. Number 10 said a 'joint taskforce' would be set up to 'turbocharge progress on other areas of mutual benefit, including technology and artificial intelligence – in support of shared growth and our national security'. 'The taskforce will also look to make progress on the wider UK-Canada Free Trade Agreement,' Downing Street said. Mr Carney's office said they had also agreed on a partnership to strengthen collaboration on AI safety between the Canadian AI Safety Institute and the UK AI Security Institute. UK-Canada trade talks snagged before the election last year amid concerns among Canadian farmers over a UK ban on hormone-treated beef and import levies hiked on British cheese. But Downing Street said on Sunday that the Government's 'red lines' on food standards, which remain in place under its recently-agreed trade deal with the US, would not shift. The Government has reached economic agreements with India, the US and the EU in recent months and is looking to pursue further deals with other allies to mitigate the threat of Donald Trump's tariffs. The talks between Sir Keir and Mr Carney, which followed a private dinner on Saturday evening and a pint in an Ottawa pub where the pair watched a game of ice hockey, are a clear show of support from the UK premier ahead of the G7 summit in Kananaskis next week. Fantastic to find a British pint in Ottawa. Meeting Brits abroad, while delivering for people back home. — Keir Starmer (@Keir_Starmer) June 15, 2025 The Prime Minister will be walking a diplomatic tightrope in the coming days as he seeks to strengthen bilateral relations with Canada while keeping the US president, who has repeatedly threatened to annex the country, on side. In warm words at the top of Sunday's meeting, Sir Keir appeared to issue a veiled challenge to Mr Trump's call to turn the nation into a '51st state'. 'For years, we've worked together as Commonwealth members, as independent, democratic sovereign countries, working alongside each other on issues of security, defence, trade, the economy, you name it,' he said. 'We think alike, we work alike, and I think that's not just a reflection on the past. I think it is very much needed in the here and now and how I think we can forge our future together as we go forward.' Mr Carney said the UK and Canada shared a 'foundation of prosperity' which would be built on in the future, including through developments in AI. 'It is a great pleasure, and I think entirely appropriate that my first official bilateral in Canada with a head of government is with Prime Minister Starmer,' he said. 'Canada and the United Kingdom, of course, share history – we share values, we share governance. 'We are a parliament inspired by the Westminster tradition, but it's much, much more than a heritage. 'This is a foundation of prosperity for all our citizens going forward, and a prosperity based on those shared values, expressed through the future – artificial intelligence, critical minerals, new partnerships in security and defence, but all in pursuit of sustainable prosperity for our citizens. 'And if I may, just on a personal level, I've learned a lot from the Prime Minister over the years. I'm a great admirer of his and the values that he's bringing to bear, to his government and… internationally.' Prime Minister of Canada Mark Carney (PA) Sir Keir will fly from Ottawa to Kananaskis in the Canadian mountains for talks with counterparts from the world's leading economies. Spiralling conflict in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine will be top of the agenda in the talks between the UK, Canada, the US, France, Italy, Japan and Germany. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is also expected to attend. Number 10 said the Prime Minister would use the trip to urge 'restraint and de-escalation' after Iran launched retaliatory strikes on Israel overnight. 'In these dangerous times, I am determined to forge a unique path to secure and renew Britain in an era of global instability,' he said. Sir Keir is also expected to meet Mr Trump, with whom he said he is in the 'final stages' of completing a US-UK trade deal, at the G7 summit. The Prime Minister told reporters on Saturday he had a 'good relationship' with the US president and 'that's important'. 'I've been saying, for probably the best part of six months now, we're in a new era of defence and security, a new era for trade and the economy,' he said. 'And I think it's really important for Britain to play a leading part in that, and that's what I'll be doing at the G7, talking to all of our partners in a constructive way. 'And I'm very pleased that I have developed good relations with all the G7 leaders to the point where… I have a very good relations with all of them.'

Mum killed in India crash was ‘reluctant to go' and feared leaving her son
A mother who died in the Air India plane crash had been reluctant to travel and feared leaving her young son behind for the first time, a colleague has said. Abdhiben Patel, known as Abdhi, 40, was killed when flight AI171 crashed shortly after take-off from Ahmedabad on Thursday. She had flown to India just two weeks earlier to care for her elderly mother, but was hesitant to make the trip and leave her eight-year-old son behind. 'She didn't want to go,' said Atif Karim, 45, her colleague and close friend at Zone Beauty Studio in Northampton. 'She told me, 'I just don't like being away from him'. It was her first time leaving him, and she was very nervous.' 'She wasn't excited,' he added. 'It was a sense of duty. Her mum was unwell, but you could tell it was weighing on her.' Mr Karim, a father of two, said recent tensions between India and Pakistan, which led to flight cancellations and uncertainty, had added to Mrs Patel's worries. 'All the flights were getting cancelled,' he said. 'It didn't feel like the right time.' Because her husband Pankaj worked night shifts, Mrs Patel was inseparable from their son Meer, he said. 'She kept saying how shy and reserved he is, how attached they were,' he added. 'She was totally devoted to him – her entire world revolved around him.' Mrs Patel had planned to return to work on Saturday. The day before the crash, she had messaged Mr Karim to check in about a task and offer to help finish it remotely. 'She said, 'Do you want me to finish that?' and later, 'Don't worry, I'll sort it,'' he said. 'That was the last I heard.' Originally from Gujarat, she moved to the UK in 2012 and joined the salon in 2016. She worked her way up over the years and had been managing the business for the last three. 'She was the most diligent, reliable worker I've ever had,' Mr Karim said. 'But more than that, she was our friend.' 'She was bubbly, kind, always smiling – she had a way of putting people at ease and always took a genuine interest in their lives.' 'She got on with everyone and left a real mark on the people she worked with and the customers she served. 'Yesterday, we had people coming in and crying their eyes out.' Inside the salon, he said the mood has changed, Mr Karim said. 'There's no music playing anymore,' he said. 'The staff are devastated. My colleague burst into tears when she walked in. 'Everyone's just heartbroken.' Mrs Patel's husband and son are now in India, where efforts are still ongoing to identify victims and return remains to grieving families. Authorities have since begun handing over remains after identifying some through DNA testing. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner had crashed into a residential area shortly after take-off, killing 241 people on board and at least 29 on the ground. Only one passenger – a 40-year-old British man – survived. A fundraiser has since been launched to support Mrs Patel's grieving husband and son, raising more than £4,000 in its first few days. The campaign is hoping to reach £50,000.
