Supermarket skin saver

BEST OF BEAUTY COMES TO THE SUPERMARKET

I’m no skincare snob. Yes, fancy packaging seduces, but if the product works then I don’t care if it comes in a tester tube. Astral, Nivea, Simple and Vaseline all have their skincare groupies and for a very good reason. Because  they give great results. Another mass market brand I would like to add to this list, and which you can pick up effortlessly when doing your supermarket dash is Derma Intensive + skin care range.

As well as the usual role call of day cream, night cream, eye cream and serum, they have newly introduced a Daily B.B. Cream. Now, beauty hounds will know blemish balms are the newest fix-it-all skincare wizards to hit the market this year, and every brand have been getting in on the act. Some are good; some are okay and others worthy of side stepping. This one? It’s brilliant! For under a fiver – it’s £3.99, it performs as well as, if not better than any high-end brand. I couldn’t quite believe it when I tried it. I thought it maybe overly perfumed - of which many are, and feel quite dry on the skin. But not a bit of it. Lightweight, it blends like a dream giving skin a sheer uniformed radiance. It has an SPF15 too so skin is protected if the sun ever decides to shine. I really think this B.B. should stand for bloody brilliant!

Derma Intensive + Daily B.B. Cream is available in two shades of light and medium and costs £3.99.
