We are all aware of the scary society we live in right now, with the aftereffects of the pandemic and the ongoing war in Europe. World events are dictating our economy and with things like taxes, petrol, energy, and household bills on the rise. It’s even more important to protect the pennies any way you can. We get it.
But its 2022, and we can’t go back to living like we’re from the stone ages. It may seem like a luxury, but our self-care is so important for our physical and mental well-being. Factoring out looking after yourself will only make the trying situation we’re living in harder.
So here at Give Me we have collated together our best money-saving ways of looking after your wallet but also keeping up with your self-care needs.

Find multi-use products – nowadays there is a product for everything, but if you can manage to find something that doubles up in multiple ways, it’s a winner!
For example, our cleansing balm is a gentle cleanser that doubles up as a makeup remover that hydrates and removes impurities. Alternatively, our Makeup- Remover also doubles up as a hydrating anti-ageing cleanser! Pair up with our machine washable Eco pad with either of these products for use after use, with having to buy single use makeup wipes. Cost effective on your purse and beneficial for the environment!
In addition, our Day cream also acts as a great night cream as it is lightweight and quickly absorbs. Keeping you hydrated through the night, without the greasy residue on your face (or pillow!)

Don’t pay over the odds for beauty products – Some products can pull you in with the fancy packaging & pretty pictures. But don’t pay silly money for average products. If you can find a cheaper alternative, go for it.
