We've never been luckier when it comes to budget beauty; there's such a huge variety at such a affordable prices, with quality that far exceeds expectations. I spent many a moment in my youth hoarding super cheap and super chalky cosmetics because I couldn't afford the alternative, but now we're presented with a huge selection of goodies that are often just as good as their premium counterparts. Although I love the look, feel and smell of some of the most luxurious brands out there, the buzz you get from finding a budget buy that really delivers is incomparable. Over the years I've tried far too many to mention, but the ones I keep turning back to are those that have a special place in my heart. If you want to treat yourself pre-payday but are a bit short of funds, or simply want to invest your cash more wisely, then here are some of my fave budget beauty products of all time that I still turn to on an almost daily basis. You're welcome.
Maybelline Collosal Mascara (£7.99)
One of the best mascara's I've ever used, this helps to create a super powerful flutter in only a couple of coats. The giant wand captures every lash and helps to lengthen and volumise lashes, leaving eyes wide open and not a clump in sight. I've re-purchased this more times than I care to admit this year, and returning to such a firm favourite reminds me how great it really is; it's definitely one of those cult classics that you can rely on to tick all your boxes without costing a fortune.
