IT’S no secret that skin care can be quite expensive, especially if you’re a fan of designer brands like Estee Lauder.
But beauty fans have found a great imitation of this expensive brand: you can buy it at B&M and get less than five euros in change for it.

The budget-friendly retailer recently launched Face Facts’ new line of creams, serums and more via social media, and people are comparing it to more expensive brands.
B&M shared a clip on Instagram of influencer Nicola Brown, who was excited about the rangewith the video subtitled: “
“Beauty benefits for a small budget.
We are always looking for new beauty must-haves to add to our collection, so we HAD TO click expands this Face Facts range!
“@ada_arthur_en_mummy has the full collection and thinks they have skincare goals!”
Nicola tried several Face Facts products and loved them all.
The range includes several night time products and they all cost less than £4, unlike Estée Lauder, where similar products cost over £40.
The nighttime cleansing balm, mask, serums and night cream can all now be found on B&M’s beauty shelf.
The best part is that the products are packed with ingredients your skin will love, including vitamin C and retinol, which help “remove dirt and impurities and revitalize dull skin.”
The anti-aging mask from the series also contains a bunch of ingredients that your skin will love, including betaine, glycerin, vegan collagen, oat peptides, amino acids and hyaluronic acid that locks in hydration.
Other beauty fans also raved about the collection on social media. One wrote: “This stuff is so good, highly recommended.”
“Wow, really good stuff,” commented a second.
And another said: “Looks lush!”

Best beauty dupes
Fabulous’ beauty editor Tara Ledden revealed which budget versions of your favorite beauty products you need in your closet.
“According to new research from Elf Cosmetics, a whopping 55% of us want to spend less on our beauty routines. It’s no wonder that there are millions of #dupe videos on TikTok.
“While some counterfeit products are easily identified by their similar packaging, they often fall short when it comes to their contents.
“In fact, some of the best imitations look nothing like the luxury product they mimic. And trust me, those are the imitations you want.”
REAL: Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer, £32.50 DUPE: Natural Collection Bronzer, £3.50, a saving of £29. The Natural Collection Bronzer is available in more shades, although there is no mirror in the compact.
REAL: Milk Make-up Hydro-Grip Primer, £35 DUPE: Elf Power Grip Primer, £10. These two have a similar green tint and the same long-lasting, mattifying properties. However, Elf’s is so popular that it’s just as hard to get hold of.
REAL: Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick, £28 DUPE: L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Satin Lipstick Beige A Now, £8.99. The shades of these two lipsticks look virtually identical on the lips. The Charlotte Tilbury lipstick is matte, but the L’Oreal Paris Lipstick has a satin finish. This makes it more comfortable to wear all day.
REAL: Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation, £40 DUPE: Collection Lasting Perfection Matte Foundation, £6.99 Although they don’t look the same on the outside, the formula, consistency and longevity of both foundations are pretty much the same. Unfortunately, Collection only comes in 20 shades, while Estee Lauder has 60.
REAL: Glossier Boy Brow, £20 DUPE: Essence Make Me Brow Gel, £2.50 There’s a whole Reddit thread dedicated to this dupe, so you know it’s got to be good. They both have a waxy consistency and added fibres to make brows appear fuller. I have to say the shade range is much better with Boy Brow, but if you’re a tanner there are plenty of Essence shades to try.
