10. LUSH Lip Scrub

Reviews:  502

Rating:  4.5/5

They say:  LUSH lip scrubs are here to keep your kisses sweet. Simply rub it over your lips when they feel the need for some sugar. 

You say: I found this one to be a good price for the amount that you get. It left my lips feeling smooth and soft and you only have to use a small amount. Would definitely buy again. Beauty Reviewer - Maddy B

8.  Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

Reviews:  546

Rating:  4.3/5

They say:  Like a magnet, the cleansing agents capture and lift away dirt from the skin. No need to rub to remove impurities and make-up. The Result: Perfectly cleansed and refreshed skin without rubbing or rinsing.

You say:  Definitely a must do in my daily cleansing routine! I love that, even though you think you've washed all your make up off, it gets the last traces off! And it makes my skin feel fresh. I would say it has even improved my complexion too. Beauty Reviewer - avapearston

 

 

7. e.l.f Brow Kit

Reviews:  651

Rated:  4.5/5

6.  MAC Lipstick

You Say:  I can't rave enough about these lipsticks. they go on silky smooth, the colour is amazing (whether a major pop of colour or a pretty soft pink). They last for ages on your lips and the colour is solid so you don't have to apply too much. I just love it! Beauty reviewer - Kiwi_Ange

They say:  No more basic lip balm. Our exclusive formula moisturizes lips for a full 8 hours. Lips renewed in 1 week.

You say:  Probably the best lip balm I've ever used. Very hydrating and moisturising. At first, I didn't realise that this lip balm had a tint of colour to it. Love this aspect of the balm. Beauty Review member - natashabasha

You say:  This is my go to product when I'm in a hurry to get ready for work or of I'm wanting a light coverage during the weekend. It is quick to apply and offers a nice medium coverage, hiding my pores and evening out my skin tone.  Beauty Review Expert - sarahwaughnz

I have tried quite a few of these products but loving that Mac lipstick in that colour so I'm hoping like mad that will be in the beauty vault this weekend.

24th April, 2018

Ooh like all of these products! I'm hoping to snatch some up in the vault - BUT don't get paid until the following week so not sure if I can yet!! :)

23rd April, 2018

Ive tried 8 from 10 and love the alll!! Just the deoderant and the brow kit left to try from this list

22nd April, 2018

Wow amazing to see how many reviews certain items have

21st April, 2018

I have tried most of these products, it is good to know they are top rated!

19th April, 2018

I've tried 4, 5, 6, and 7! I'm curious to try the LUSH Lip Scrub. I've only tried the one from Jeffree Star and it was pretty yummy. Haha

18th April, 2018

About 15 minutes ago I tried the Lush lip scrub for the first time, my teen has just bought it. Popped it on, scrubbed, buffed and licked as it says and then came on here and there were go, it's Top of the Pops! It really is super good too, in taste!

17th April, 2018

I have tried four of these products and have found the dry shampoo is my favourite especially at the price. Keen to check out the e.l.f eyebrow kit.

16th April, 2018

lots of these are my favs and the nivea stress deodorant was my first trial product over 4 years ago BR and i still use it xx

16th April, 2018

I've tried all except the bb cream and deodorant

16th April, 2018

I wrote reviews on 7 out of 10 of these. Let's start at the top of the page. Lush Lip Scrub - not my fave anymore, that crown goes to the Frank Body Lip Scrub. Please add it to the data base so I can rave about it. Health Basic Nail Polish Remover - I prefer the Sally Hansen one. Garnier Micellar Water- the to-go for me and my family it's stayed our fave for years. Elf- never tried. Mac, there are other brands of lipstick that I prefer a bit more but for variety and shade ranges Mac has everything and Mac Twig is one of my all time fave lipsticks. Batiste - better than some other dry shampoo brands I've tried in the past but I haven't tried many. Maybelline Baby Lips - I've come across better lip balms since. Garnier BB cream - Texture is nice shade is too limited. I like the Oasis Beauty one better and it has my shade. Lucas Pawpaw - never tried and didn't see what the fuss was as it seemed to be similar to vaseline. Nivea Deoderant - I preferred Dove Clinical protection for years, I currently use a NZ natural one by Dept of Soul and it's actually cheaper than the Dove one for the amount you get. Please add that one too so I can rave about it. I previously used Black Chicken but I prefer deoderant sticks to deoderant pots.

16th April, 2018

I love that these products are affordable. It shows that you don't necessarily need to spend a fortune to have fun with beauty. (even though, let's be honest, it would be great to have a fortune to spend on beauty)

16th April, 2018

The stress protect deodorant is totally a top fav of mine! The Garnier micellar water, MAC lippies and the Batiste are some of my top rated products too <3

16th April, 2018

I have tries some of them although the Batiste Dry Shampoo does not work for me- Good to relook at some of the popular products though.

15th April, 2018

Yep I've reviewed at least half of these products. Wonder what drew us all to them?

Price? Easily accessible? For me anyway probably the two biggest reasons I buy anything
