10 Spring Beauty Essentials Under £10

London moisture renew lipstick, £6, Rimmel

How gorgeous is a) the colour, and b) the packaging on this smoking hot coral lipstick? It’s totally the new lip colour for spring, so start sporting now and get ahead of the pout pack.

Masterpiece, £8.99, Max Factor

Clumps? No thanks. Streaks? Not acceptable! Good job Max Factor’s Masterpiece lives up to its name! You won’t find either of these problems with this little wonder wand – only silky long lashes. There’s a good reason why InStyle named it their Best Inexpensive Mascara in our 100 Best Beauty Buys 2010.

Natural Blush Electric Pink, £6.50, GOSH

Apricot pinks are so on-trend for spring 2010 and this beauty from GOSH reminds us of our fave blusher,  Nars Orgasm. Snap it up, sharpish!

True Match Foundation, £9.78, L’Oreal Paris

Need a base that sinks into your skin rather than sits awkwardly on top of it? True Match Foundation is the answer to your prayers – and the winner of the Best Inexpensive Foundation in InStyle’s 100 Best Beauty Buys 2010. What more do you need to know?

Holiday Skin Body Lotion, £4.99, Johnson’s

Winner of the Best Moisturiser with Self Tan in InStyle’s Best Beauty Buys 2010 awards, this little gem is a spring staple! Simply pop on after a shower like you would a normal body moisturiser, and let the gorgeous healthy glow begin! 

Natural Dazzle Bronzer Compact, £9.25, Barry M

Sun-kissed skin is a top look for spring so, instead of damaging your complexion in the rays, why not try this perfect-colour bronzer from Barry M? It gives a fresh-from-a-holiday-hue without being orange. We love.

Simple Cleansing Wipes, £2.93, Simple

OK, they might not be the most glamorous item in your beauty bag, but these babies are essential for the fresh-faced flawless look for spring. Absolutely, hands-down the best cleansing wipes on the market (as seen in InStyle's 100 Best Beauty Buys 2010).

Nail Lacquer Fash Pack, £10, Butter London

Everyone from Posh to Kate Moss and Alexa Chung has been spotted wearing Chanel’s Particuliére mushroom-coloured nail varnish. But blink and you missed it in the shops, so we’ve come up with some purse-friendly alternatives. Butter London has a gorgeous look-a-like griege (grey-beige) colour. Or you can also try Essie in Mink Muffs, £8.65 and No7’s Beanie, £6.25. 

Lip Orchid, £8, Jelly Pong Pong

Bold florals were blossoming on the spring/summer 2010 catwalks (Erdem, Dolce & Gabbana, Stella McCartney), and what prettier trend to get in on for the new season? We adore this zingy-fresh lip gloss, which will look perfect on your dressing table.

Smoky Eyes Shadow Trio, £7.30, Bourjois

Purple eyeshadow was seen all over the spring/summer 2010 catwalks at shows like Dior. It really is the perfect spring twist on a charcoal smoky eye, and even celebs – like Emily Blunt and Leona Lewis - are rocking the look. This new purple peeper pleaser is right on the money.
