10 women share their favourite supermarket beauty buys under $20.

Brilliant beauty doesn’t need to cost you the world. This is a fact.

To prove this point, we deep-dived into the shopping baskets of 11 women to get their best supermarket beauty buys. They’re fabulous, tried and tested, all under $20, and you can pick them up during your weekly shop.

Now that’s efficiency for you.

From the brand-new lipstick range which was created to universally flatter all skin tones, to the $8.50 hydrating face mist hack that will feel like a high-end dupe, here are the ‘savey’ grocery story beauty products you need to ‘add-to-trolley’ ASAP.

Jess W

BUY THIS: Maybelline New York, Color Sensational Made For All Lipstick in Red for Me, RRP $17.95.

Attention red lipstick lovers: if you’re on the hunt for a sumptuous ‘fire engine’ red, Maybelline’s latest offering has you covered for RRP $17.95. The curvature of the bullet perfectly hugged my lips and the shade is an universally flattering, bright red and the demi-matte texture feels great on the lips.

Although the ‘Color Sensational Made For All’ range was designed to flatter every single skin tone – making it oh so wearable – this energetic shade is particularly eye-catching.

Should you purchase a lippie and think that it doesn’t suit your skin tone, Maybelline New York will even give you your money back*. You have seven days to make the claim and just need to provide proof of purchase.

Belinda S

BUY THIS: My Aura, Organic Deodorant Rose Vanilla & Jasmine, $9.00.

This is the only deodorant that works for me and I have tried them all including the clinical versions! The one tip I will add is to make sure you rub the product in once applied and it should last all day. So excited to find a natural and organic deodorant which actually does what it's supposed to do!

Amy

BUY THIS: Batiste, Dry Shampoo in Eden, $12.79 for 400 mL.

It's bigger than your head and will last FOREVER.

Christie

BUY THIS: Sanofi, Glycerine, $8.50.

Add supermarket Glycerin to a spritz bottle with water. It’s a dupe for high-end, finishing sprays as it takes the main hydrating ingredient they use, without the fragrance. It works just as well!

Jess S

BUY THIS: Sukin, Cream Cleanser, $10.99.

I've recently started using Sukin's cream cleanser because I was looking for something more gently on my skin. It smells really great and it's definitely making a difference to my sensitive/dry skin.

Bee

BUY THIS: MCoBeauty, Facial & Brow Razor Super Smooth, $10.

The facial razor was a game changer! I’ve seen the girls on You Beauty talking about facial razors for quite some time and as someone who use to bleach the hairs on my face, I knew I had to give it a go!

I was so disgusted - and super excited - with all the 'peach fuzz' and dead skin coming off my face, but it's made my skin feel so fresh and soft that I was positively glowing this morning.

Nama

BUY THIS: Sudocrem, Nappy Cream Healing, $9.

I’ve tried so many things, but nothing leaves my face more hydrated than this weekly mask of Sudocrem. I’ve been addicted to it ever since I first bought it for my baby’s eczema a decade ago. It’s so soothing. Not kidding.

Gemma

BUY THIS: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Clear Face Sunscreen Liquid-lotion SPF 30, $17.00.

This is my favourite face sunscreen of all time, and I have tried a heap of them. It’s so light that it just feels like moisturiser and it doesn’t have an overpowering sunscreen smell. I have sensitive skin, and can be prone to breakouts but I have never had an issue with this product and it sits perfectly under makeup.

Paige

BUY THIS: Maybelline New York, Master Precise Liquid Liner in Black, RRP $16.95.

It’s been my go to for winged eyeliner for around sevenish years. I’ve tried others and other types of liner like gel with a brush, and nothing has been as easy, or has compared to using this. I find the soft fine point tip really glides on easily and smoothly and it lasts all day and night!

Alexandra

BUY THIS: Pantene Pro-V, 3 Minute Miracle Intensive Treatment Program, $8.39 for 3.

As someone with hard to manage, thick, frizzy, curly hair, this product has made my life a million times easier. You leave it in your hair for three minutes in the shower, then wash it out, and it means when I blowdry and straighten my hair it looks a normal level of smooth rather than frizzing out everywhere!

**If you purchase the Maybelline New York, Color Sensational Made For All Lipstick and you don't think it suits your skin tone, you'll get your money back. Ends August 1st 2019. One claim per household. Proof of purchase required. Claims must be made within 7 days of purchase. Full terms and conditions here.
