Brilliant Beauty Buys For Under €20

Brilliant beauty buys under €20 that I recommend to everyone.

All of the products included in this list will be familiar if you have followed me on Instagram for any length of time. I’ve repurchased them more times than I can count, not only because they’re affordable – but because they really work.

Skincare

Two of my favourite, extremely gentle cleansers that suit all skin types; one from CeraVe and one from Neutrogena, a brilliant cleanser from The Inkey List, a depuffing eye cream, my favourite eye gels, a gentle exfoliating toner, the best mask for blackheads, a lovely cleansing mitt, a soothing skin spray, and more.

If you need help with your skincare routine, take a look at this guide about building a routine from scratch. There are many other guides, too; my top 10 skincare tips, Vitamin C, SPF, skincare acids, and changing up your products in winter.

Makeup

The only mascara I wear (we’ve been in a committed relationship for almost seven years now), the two brow products I use every day; one to draw in hair strokes and the other to tint and shape, a brilliant setting spray, the best liquid liner on the planet, and an illuminating base.

If you’d like to take a look at the hall of fame makeup products I’m never without, check out The Makeup List here.

 

 

Haircare

My hair routine has been the same for quite a few years. Funnily enough, most of the products are under €20! I wash my hair once or twice a week, starting with this gentle exfoliating scalp treatment from The Inkey List, this volumising shampoo from MONDAY Haircare, followed by Briogeo’s leave-in conditioner (the 51ml version is €10). I use a mask from Aveda once every two weeks or The Inkey List’s Hyaluronic Acid Treatment, and the rest of the time, I rely heavily on Ouai Wave Spray and several versions of Klorane’s dry shampoos. Every now and then, when I feel my hair is a little dry, I love using this Argan Oil from The Ordinary on the ends.

Check out my all-time favourite haircare products in this guide.

Sinead is someone who makes me feel unapologetically myself at all times. No airs, no graces, just endless chats, openness and support. Highly recommend having a Sinead in your life (she’s a divil for chocolate truffles, though).
