Home Bargains, Amazon and LookFantastic are among the stores to have discounted a wide variety of beauty and self-care products
Beauty buffs, prepare yourselves. Home Bargains has slashed the price of several anti-ageing products, including one ‘go-to for glowing skin’.
Such an item is a 14-pack of Beauty & Co Marine Collagen Gel Sachets, which boast a crucial ingredient for a ‘youthful boost’. The retailer is now selling these for as little as £9.99 – a 66% drop from its previous cost of £29.99.
“Revitalise your beauty routine with Beauty & Co’s Marine Collagen Gel Sachets in Mixed Berry,” Home Bargains’ website description reads. “Packed with collagen, vitamin C, zinc, biotin, and hyaluronic acid, these tasty sachets are your go-to for glowing skin and a youthful boost.”
Collagen is a protein typically found in our muscles, skin, and bones. Yet, as we age, our body’s collagen production gradually drops, encouraging the formation of fine lines, wrinkles, and drier skin.
This is primarily why many experts recommend collagen-based products for improved skin health. Several studies, including a systematic review in 2023, support its potential, while others suggest that collagen may even improve joint stiffness and bone strength.
Besides collagen, Beauty & Co’s sachets include vitamin C and zinc, which are believed to be crucial for brightening your complexion. Previous research has also found that supplementing hyaluronic acid, another ingredient, may dramatically improve skin moisture in adults, too.
However, it’s crucial to note that further investigation is needed to verify the benefits of collagen-based products. Various scientists, including those at Harvard University, have noted some uncertainties that need exploring.
In 2023, dermatologist Dr Maryanne Makredes Senna and Dr Payal Patel described: “Large-scale trials evaluating the benefits of oral collagen supplements for skin and hair health are not available.
“If you’re concerned about thinning or lacklustre hair, brittle nails, or keeping skin smooth and healthy, talk to your doctor or a dermatologist for advice on the range of options.”
Beyond Beauty & Co’s sachets, Home Bargains has discounted numerous other beauty products, including Biovene Hyaluronic Spf 50 Anti-Aging Face Fluid 40ml slashed from £14.95 to £2.99 and The Inkey List 10% Urea Moisturiser 50ml cut from £14.99 to £3.49.
Further self-care product discounts are also offered on Amazon within its Spring Deal Days sale. Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies cut 15% to £7.64, a 10-pack of Venus Gillette blade refills at £18.99, and Coco & Eve Like A Virgin shampoo and conditioner bundle at £28 are among them.
Finally, you might want to head to LookFantastic, which is currently offering a luxurious Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum 3-Piece Skincare Set for £61, taken down 45% from £111. A Liz Earle daily Cleanse & Pump set worth £82 is now selling at £45 as well.
