Molly Mae Hague's favourite affordable moisturiser that’s a cheaper alternative to Tatcha
Former Love Island star Molly Mae recently shared to Instagram that she’s been using Aveeno’s Calm and Restore products as part of her evening self-care routine - and she swears by the Calm and Restore Oat Gel Moisturiser from the range which is priced at just £11.59.
Aveeno’s lightweight gel moisturiser locks in moisture for 24 hours while being ‘very soothing’ and ‘hydrating on the skin.’ It’s formulated with prebiotic oats and calming Feverfew, known for its antioxidant properties, and as it’s fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, it’s ideal for anyone suffering from dry, sensitive skin.
Molly-Mae has praised the "insane" cream as a 'dupe' for Tatcha's £67 cream (Youtube/Molly-Mae)In Molly’s most recent Youtube video, she claims the affordable cream is an amazing 'dupe' for the The Dewey Skin Cream from Tatcha which sells for £67 a pot. Calling the cream "fricking insane," the influencer went on to say: "This is for my girls that want a more affordable product."
It’s not just Molly-Mae who’s a fan of the affordable Oat Gel Moisturiser either, as it’s currently a bestseller (and sold out) on Amazon, and a favourite amongst plenty of skincare fans who describe it being like “a big glass of water for the skin.”
Our entire team is devoted to the Uniqlo crossbody, but after , she’s been converted.
She said: “News this week that Uniqlo had - finally - released a of the staple bought me great joy, but then I realised it was actually considerably bigger than the original style it was modelled on, defeating the point somewhat, but even more significantly M&S had launched their own version of the crescent shaped bag - and it is glorious.
“I ordered the and, having used it for a few days and put it head to head with my previous bag it has utterly replaced the Uniqlo in my affection.”
The M&S bag comes in a range of colours and is giving Uniqlo a run for their money (Bethan Shufflebotham)The is two centimetres wider at the mouth than the but in style and shape they look very similar. It comes in four different colourways, has a zip pocket inside, is fully lined and crucially, is waterproof.
Narin added: “I chose brown for a change from my usual goes-with-everything black, and the quality of the material is amazing. It hangs really nicely when it’s filled, holding its shape well and with a more of a rigid structure than the softer material of the Uniqlo version. Meanwhile the gold zip and buckle on the strap make it look more premium in a way that makes it more versatile and means I’m going to get even more use out of it.
“With the of their bag coming in at £24.90 and this M&S hero just ten pence more expensive it is worth every penny and I'm fully expecting to start spotting these out in the wild in the next few weeks now the bag has hit stores and M&S online.”
