Tried It, Loved It, Now Where Do I Get It? : US Make Up Brands in the UK

Tuesday 3rd August

One of the great things about travelling stateside is treating yourself to the best American make up brands that you can’t get in the UK but the only bad thing is: where do you get them in the UK?  Since we share the same product pangs, we are so happy to find your fav brands and their deliciously discounted products online. So if you’re an American-brand addict or an American ex-pat, here is your way to be both the American beauty and discount product diva.

The Magic Mascaras

Trust us when we say that Maybelline and CoverGirl make magic mascaras. While we have some of the Maybelline mascaras here, we don’t have their much-loved Full N’ Soft mascara. Quell that long-lash lust by visiting  Save On Makeup. One tube is only £2.99.

A one-way stop to stunning, CoverGirl’s mascaras can increase your batting average. Get the lashes you love with their Professional Waterproof Mascara at a discounted £2.45 (RRP: £6.50). Although we can’t find the entire CoverGirl make-up range, we managed to find some of their discounted make up here.

The Eye Wish

Through the marvels of make-up magic, you can now get the Smashbox Cosmetics line at Debenhams. Make your peepers pretty with their Beauty to Go eye palette, £32.95 (RRP: £40).

The Best in Bath and Body

If you’re a gym rat, have an all-important interview or want to stay dry during that sauna-like tube ride home, try Secret Deodorant Clinical Strength (pack of three for £9.79). Originally made for people who suffer from hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), it is the forever-fresh solution to hot weather or festivals and lasts days without reapplying.

Lastly, there is the sweet-scented spray of Calgon. And no, it’s not the product that removes limescale from your washing machine so it can live longer. For Americans, it’s the array of body sprays and lotions they can’t live without. Perfect as an after shower treat or to freshen up during the day, Calgon’s sprays, £3.81 (RRP: £5.09), spoil you with a variety of scents.
