Dove soap, has the same effect as angels on bare skin by lush but at a fraction of the price, around 50p per 100g as opposed to £4.50 per 100g.

Yep - it's a moisturiser - cheap as chips and does the job really well. And smells yummy too.

EDIT - just seen the post above!! Horses for courses I guess. But get the stuff in the tubs rather than the bottles. It's great as an after sun moisturiser and using overnight. It doesn't leave your skin feeling slimey.

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is a must, makes your skin really "glow" and nice and soft. It also doubles up as a face mask once a week.

I also swear by Diorshow Mascara...gives me bambi eyes!

Beauty products = Artificial Additives and Sweeteners to give you that zestful lift and revitalisation.

Love L'Oreal Telescopic mascara, of all the mascara's I've tried (which is a lot, I have quite a collection) this is the best.

Also Benefit products, especially their foundation, expensive but worth it, especially for me as I can never find the right foundation colour.

Water. A few days of drinking extra water and my skin shows more improvement than with any cosmetic I've ever bought!

Sleep too! If you don't get enough sleep then Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer is the best for hiding dark shadows. I've tried them all and nothing comes close to this. Not even the famous Touche Eclat.

Also love Dior Capture XR60/80 serum. Don't think it does any good, but the smell is gorgeous.

YSL Touche Eclat and vaseline. i put vaseline on my lips before bed every night and i never have a problem with dry lips (hubby loves how soft they are).

Also Molton Brown hand and bath products - i won't use anything else in the shower or any other hand wash or hand lotion - they are just so fantastic. Although keep an eye on QVC for some major discounts on Molton Brown.

Another vote for this one from me too. I've got the one which has Alpha/Beta Hydroxy & Shea Butter in it and I love it as it is ok for face and body. I think it is about £3-£4 for a good sized bottle.

Also Benefit Lemon Aid, or most Benefit stuff come to that.
