Home Bargains is selling a £3.99 skincare product shoppers have compared to a £52 Charlotte Tilbury cream. Skincare gurus who spotted the Home Bargains cream in-store rushed to TikTok to show off the find.
One customer, posting as @Paulapronobis_, showcased the £3.99 Victoria Harper Mystical Cream, which advertised as a ‘plumping and firming’ product. Music playing in the video says: “I’m in love. I’m obsessed.”
Another shopper, @Rhirhimay, opted to test the cream alongside another product in a review video. In the video, the skincare guru first tested the Mystical Cream, which appeared easy to use, with a little product going a long way.
They then tried a lip care product. Giving their verdict, the tester confessed they’re ‘very fussy when it comes to skincare’ but said the products ‘are definitely not bad’. For anyone looking for an affordable stocking filler this Christmas that exudes luxury, this £3.99 cream could be a handy option.
While the tester did allude to Charlotte Tilbury, they were unable to offer a direct comparison. As the Mystical Cream is not currently listed online, interested shoppers will have to compare ingredients in-store.
That said, while the cream might be compared to Charlotte Tilbury’s £52 Magic Cream due to its similar packaging and purpose—both creams are designed to plump and firm—it’s important to note that the formulas will differ. However, the Home Bargains option could be the ticket for beauty lovers looking for more affordable skincare products.
The bargain retailer recently wowed shoppers by cutting the price of Revolution’s Sali Hughes Mini Skin Care Set from £20 to £2.99, offering customers an impressive 85% saving on the five-piece beauty set. It’s still available online, which is great news for those hunting for Christmas presents and stocking fillers.
The set includes a cleanser, exfoliant, serum, and moisturiser, and it comes in a branded Sali Hughes cotton pouch. Home Bargains has also reduced the price of its Nivea Feel Relaxed Skincare Gift Set from £10 to £4.49, while the L’Oreal Men Expert Alive & Kicking Gift Set is on sale from £18 to £8.99.
