‘Absolute bargain' shoppers cry as they spot BareMinerals makeup with prices slashed by 78%
KEEPING your makeup bag fully stocked with beauty essentials can quickly add up. But you don't need to break the bank to look your best, as Home Bargains have slashed the price of loads of staples from BareMinerals. 3 A savvy shopper spotted the huge discounts and shared them on the popular Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK. The massive sale includes foundation, lip gloss and more - but it's online only. Reduced from £33 to £6.99, beauty fans can get their hands on the popular BareMinerals Complexion Rescue Natural Tinted Moisturiser - and the full shade range is available. Perfect if you want a bit of coverage without it feeling too heavy, the tinted moisturiser is described as "a breathable, oil-free tinted moisturiser that protects your skin with SPF 30 while keeping it fresh and shine-free all day." And with a 78% discount the offer is too good to miss. There's also the Mineralist Lip Gloss-Balm, reduced from £23 to just £4.99. The handbag must have is described as "a sheer bronze shimmer that combines glossy shine with a nourishing, non-sticky balm enriched with cold-pressed fruit oils for beautifully soft, smooth lips." Or maybe the Barepro Pressed Powder Foundation is more your thing, For just £6.99 the powder foundations offers natural matte coverage with a "lightweight, non-cakey, and sweat-resistant" formula that will last for up to 16 hours. Inside Superdrug's beauty playground in Glasgow store - even Gen Alpha will love it It also has "oil control that lasts all day" - and it's vegan and cruelty-free too. After the mega sale was shared on Facebook beauty fans were keen to snap up the products before they sold out. One shopper said: "I ordered one last night. No idea what shade I am in BareMinerals but just used the picture in the product description and took a guess! "These are usually at least £28 and I have wanted to try it for ages! so for £6.99 it's an absolute bargain." And a second agreed: "This is a great deal, I'll have to stock up." Meanwhile, someone else chimed in: "I didn't know you could buy online from Home Bargains." Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using. A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines. A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion. The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin's appearance and texture. SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone's daily skincare routine. Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun's UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin's texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer. Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection. Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation. I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair's moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.
