Beat pre-pay day blues with these hot beauty buys for under £20
If your bank manager is scoring zero on the generosity-o-meter, just remember that all is not lost. You can still treat yourself to something beauty- and mood-boosting with one of these hot buys for less than £20.
From Korea's {3 Concept Eyes}, the gorgeous {Glass Gloss} will become your new best friend. High-shine is making its overdue comeback, so embrace the trend by applying this clear lacquer all over lips, lids and cheekbones.
Sleek and slimline, {NYX Professional Makeup} have aced the *spring feels* with their beautiful {Duo Chrome Illuminating Powder}. At only £9 a pop, these buttery highlighters lend an ethereal, shade-shifting glow to lacklustre complexions.
On the topic of 'lacklustre', reach for {Konjac Sponges} latest 'Rainforest' collection to resuscitate dulled, weather-ravaged skin. We're especially drawn to the sloth-vibes of {Bamboo Charcoal} - we need some of that purifying, skin-refining brilliance.
Calling all lip lovers! If you don't already own a {Charlotte Tilbury} {Lip Cheat} then can you call yourself a make up maven? No kit is complete without this multi-purpose lining, priming and defining pencil in shade 'Pillow Talk' - the ultimate 'your lips but better' rose-nude.
An eyeshadow aficionado? The new {Sweet Glamour Eyeshadow Palette} from {ZOEVA} stars ten sorbet shades for creating a spectrum of wonderfully romantic looks. There's something marvellously Marie Antoinette about this edit... and at only £18, you'll have spare cash for cake!
