The $35 Skin Food Serum & The Foundation That Took 2 Years To Land

Is your skin ready to be drenched in butter? And could a foundation-slash-primer that melts into your skin be the secret to the ultimate "no-makeup makeup" look?

On this week's Spendy Savey, Leigh has cracked the code on a Canadian import, a lightweight base from G Beauty that took two years to get to Australia and gives the most incredible, diffused glow. Kelly, meanwhile, is slathering on the Bare Minerals Skinlongevity Butter Drenched Cream, which is everything you love about a rich moisturiser but finishes like a cooling gel.

Plus, prepare for major enabling as we debate the absolute perfection of the new Holme Beauty The One Eyeshadow Palette (it's a splurge, but trust us, it's worth it), and discover the new Weleda Skin Food Super Serum that delivers that iconic hydration without the thickness. It's proof that sometimes the best beauty secrets are under $40, and sometimes they're worth the two-year wait. Get ready to update your routine with all the phenomenal newness!
