At Savoo
Chelsea is one of the youngest team members at Savoo, but she's joined the team with some serious savings expertise to share. Having most recently lived on a student budget, she's got years of experience managing a monthly finance calendar and navigating that balance between essentials, luxuries, and savings.
Over 10 years ago Chelsea was looking for ways to care for her skin and relieve symptoms of eczema on a budget. Haircare and skincare routines are costly at the best of times, and Chelsea has come to Savoo with over a decade of knowledge in affordable beauty. Trial and error for sensitive skin is an expensive undertaking, so you'll find her top tips all over the Savoo discount code pages such as Boots and Superdrug, helping users find out what is both best for their skin health and within their budget.
"I always found that the best way to avoid purchasing any product that I have to throw away immediately is to go in store and use the tester product on the shelf. Then leave it for a day to see if any reaction occurs. I used to purchase travel sized products to do this, but found that going in-store is a zero-cost alternative to try out multiple drug store items like foundation and moisturiser. Especially when a product is viral and I want to see if it is really worth the hype before spending!"
Being mindful about skincare has also trickled down into her expertise on makeup items. From the best drug store mascara to affordable makeup brands like e.l.f. and Revolution have a read of Chelsea's health and beauty articles below to find out more about saving money on your wash bag and makeup bag!
Chelsea's top tip for finding the best prices for skincare.
"Once I'd done my research about brands I visited both the brand's own website, as well as stockists. I found that the deals and discounts available with the products I was looking for were so varied: I couldn't compare. I'd recommend anyone looking for cheaper skincare to start researching this way before purchase
What is often the case is that the brand will offer more sizes: meaning I can get more product for the money in a supersized version, and they are more likely to give away gifts or freebies with a purchase.
Comparatively, stockists like Beauty Bay, allbeauty or YesStyle are more likely to offer free delivery, as well as running a sale section more frequently throughout the year."
Having ventured into the worth of wellbeing, users can also find Chelsea's guidance on some of Savoo's health and beauty pages. Over a decade of using supplements and herbal remedies to enhance the effects of natural skincare has made her a regular at stores like Holland and Barrett.
"I really recommend using a discount code every time, if you can't find one at Savoo then TikTok has become my second go-to! Influencers there sometimes have an exclusive code from a partnership with the brand that you can't find anywhere else, and it's particularly common to find codes for supplements like Huel's Daily Greens or Vitabiotics immune supplements."
