Luckily for those strapped for cash, there's two Dr. Lipp products which are now only £1.99 at Home Bargains - yes, you heard that correctly.
One savvy shopper was gobsmacked to see the cult buys in her local Home Bargains and eagerly raced to social media to alert others.
Posting on BARGAIN LOVERS Poundland, Home Bargains, B&M, Primark, The Range & More, a public Facebook group with 866,400 members, Charlotte Taylor shared a snap of her finds.
Alongside this, she wrote: 'Dr. Lipp products in Home Bargains! £1.99 each.'
Not only did Charlotte spot the Dr. Lipp All Ways, but she also found the Dr. Lipp Before n' After too.
The Dr. Lipp All Ways, which normally retails at £25.99, is a make-up remover, cleanser, body wash and shampoo.
It's been hailed by those at Dr. Lipp as the 'Swiss Army Knife of cleansers.'
As well as this, according to the product description, it's the skincare equivalent of 'that cool kid at school who was really fun but also a shameless overachiever.'
And not only is it 'fragrance-free, comforting and luscious," but it can be used on all skin types, for the hair and the face.
Meanwhile, the Dr. Lipp Before n' After, which normally sets shoppers back £27.99, is an 'all-over moisturise' buy that can be used on the hair, face and body.
It works as a hair mask and conditioner, as well as a lotion.
According to those at Dr. Lipp, it is 'smoother than James Bond at an awards party' and is 'lightweight and versatile.'
It's won 'more than 11 industry accolades for its remarkable results' and is 'gentle, fragrance-free and non-sticky.'
Not only this, but it's also been hailed as 'universal and all-inclusive', as well as being a 'one-stop wonder' to condition both skin and hair.
Facebook users were stunned to see the iconic buys at such a purse-friendly price and many eagerly raced to the comments to express this.
One person said: 'I need to close my eyes, otherwise I will buy several.'
Meanwhile, in disbelief at the £26 saving, another asked: ' Dupes?'
To this, Charlotte wrote back and confirmed: 'No they're real ones, I put the website price on.'

2025 will focus on skin repairing and texture-enhancing treatments.
Skincare
Rejuran treatment, a celebrity-endorsed procedure, will see a rise in demand this year as many seek to enhance their skin's appearance. The procedure entails injecting polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA to enhance skin texture and elasticity. 'Rejuvenation is expected to dominate 2025 skincare trends as many seek to achieve a flawless, youthful complexion.

Peel-off lip stains circulated the beauty industry in 2024 and are expected to dominate in 2025. The growing popularity of this product is due to its ability to provide long-lasting, transfer-proof colour to lips, enhancing a natural aesthetic.

Swinney to press Trump on Scotch whisky tariffs exemption

Scotland's First Minister has vowed to press President Donald Trump to exempt Scotch whisky from US trade tariffs. John Swinney said the 'uniqueness' of whisky made in Scotland justified the exemption from the 10% tariff applied on UK exports into the US. The First Minister, who is due to hold talks with Mr Trump during his ongoing visit to Scotland, said the tariffs were currently costing the local whisky industry £4 million a week. 'Tariffs are very important for the Scottish economy and obviously scotch whisky is a unique product,' he told BBC Breakfast. 'It can only be produced in Scotland. It's not a product that can be produced in any other part of the world. So there's a uniqueness about that, which I think means there is a case for it to be taken out of the tariffs arrangement that is now in place. 'Obviously the trade deal with the United States provides a degree of stability for economic connections with the United States, but the application of tariffs is increasing the costs for the Scotch whisky industry. 'So one of my objectives will be to make the case to President Trump that Scotch whisky should be exempted from those tariffs. 'It's a product that is uniquely produced in Scotland, and it's a product that is much welcomed and supported within the United States. And I think there's a really good case for exempting Scotch whisky, and this is an opportunity that I have to put that case to President Trump on behalf of the Scotch whisky industry, which is a significant part of the Scottish economy. 'And the tariffs just now are costing the industry about £4 million each week, so it's a very significant burden on the industry. It would help growth and development within the Scottish economy if we could secure that deal. And, obviously, I'll be using every opportunity I have to try to put that across to President Trump.' Mr Trump's five-day visit to Scotland is largely a private one that has seen the president play golf at his course at Turnberry in Ayrshire ahead of opening a new course at his property in Aberdeenshire on Tuesday. Mr Swinney said the final cost of the policing the visit has yet to be worked out. 'Obviously, we're working very closely with Police Scotland and the Scottish Police Authority about the arrangements for this visit,' he said. 'The security arrangements have gone well since President Trump arrived on Friday, and that's as it should be, because we've got an obligation to make sure that when we have major international visitors, when they come to Scotland, that they are protected and able to go about their activities. Pressed to reveal the bill, Mr Swinney added: 'All of that will be worked out and we'll address that with Police Scotland and the Scottish Police Authority, and we're talking to the United Kingdom government about these questions, but it's important that we have a secure policing operation. 'It's also important that members of the public who wish to express their point of view, who want to protest about the visit or about other issues, are able to go about their exercise of their democratic right to protest. That's exactly what they've been able to do since Friday, and that's the way it should be.'

Citroen's new SUV is £7k cheaper than a VW Tiguan

Citroen has announced pricing for its new C5 Aircross with the flagship SUV set to start from just over £30,000. The C5 Aircross will continue Citroen's 'multi-energy' platform strategy - meaning it'll be offered with a petrol hybrid and all-electric power. The Citroen C5 Aircross comes in the three trim levels you'd find across in Citroen's model range. With the 'Hybrid 145' powertrain, the C5 Aircross starts in You! guise from £30,495, before going up to £33,135 for the mid-range 'Plus' and £35,775 for the top-spec 'Max'. Choose the all-electric version of any of those trim levels and you'll pay an extra £3,570.

Almost 50,000 firms near collapse amid strain from tax hike, report claims

Nearly 50,000 UK companies are on the verge of collapse, with the retail and hospitality sectors facing the most severe impact from rising wage costs. A new report highlights that recent budget measures are placing "immense strain" on small firms across the country. The latest red flag alert from Begbies Traynor reveals a significant 21.4 per cent year-on-year increase in businesses experiencing critical financial distress, reaching 49,309 in the second quarter. Consumer-facing industries have been particularly hard hit, with bars and restaurants seeing a 41.7 per cent surge in distress. Travel and tourism firms recorded a 39 per cent leap, while general retailers experienced a 17.8 per cent jump. Begbies warned that many independent pubs may not possess the necessary scale to withstand these mounting pressures for another year without urgent action. Ric Traynor, executive chairman of Begbies Traynor, said: 'The sharp rise in critical distress underscores just how tough the economic environment is for UK businesses and it's abundantly clear that tens of thousands of firms are struggling to stay afloat. 'Small and medium sized businesses across the UK are being put under immense strain by the recent increases to employer's NI as well as the increase to the national minimum wage. 'With limited financial headroom to absorb rising costs, many businesses are now reaching a tipping point.' It is the latest sign of the toll taken on many firms by the Government's move in last autumn's budget to increase national insurance contributions (NICs) and hike the minimum wage, both taking effect in April. Labour-intense companies in particular have felt the impact, such as retailers and restaurants and bars. Troubles in the sector have been compounded by a pull back in consumer spending, according to Begbies. Julie Palmer, a partner at Begbies Traynor, said: ' Households are still grappling with their finances, and this is keeping consumer confidence volatile. 'The knock-on effect of this is clear to see in the consumer-facing sectors where margins are thin, growth is hard to come by, and the impact of higher employee costs is pushing many businesses to the brink of collapse. 'So, it is of no surprise to me that while larger pub groups might be performing well, by squeezing out extra efficiencies to counteract onerous price rises, many independent players won't have the scale to withstand the pressures of this environment for another 12 months if nothing improves.' The British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA) recently estimated that 378 pubs will close this year across England, Wales and Scotland, which it said would amount to more than 5,600 direct job losses. The wider economy is also showing signs of strain, with recent official figures revealing gross domestic product shrank by 0.1% in May, following a 0.3% drop in April. 'With no end in sight to the current economic malaise, I fear the financial burdens companies are enduring at present are simply too high for many not to avoid collapse,' said Ms Palmer.
