On her @thatshoppinggirly account, the make-up whizz said: “No gatekeeping here.
“Boots is definitely becoming one of my favourite makeup brands.
“I pride myself on finding affordable makeup, it’s sooo expensive being a woman!”
One of her top recommendations is Boots’ 17. Vitamin Rich Primer.
The 29-year-old wrote: “This is a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Face Base which is £50 but this is £5 and better imo [in my opinion.]
“As an oily skin girl primers (more layers) always scare me but this doesn’t break me out or make my face more oily.”
Boots 17 primer may be just a fiver, but it is also vegan-friendly and comes with vitamin E, niacinamide and Shea butter.
The website says: “This rich, moisturising primer helps to give a healthy glow and create the perfect make-up base. “
Not only is it a favourite of the make-up artist, but it also comes with near five-star reviews on the Boots page.
One person raved: “Excellent product. Easily as good as the more expensive primers.”
Another added: “It glides on beautifully and is a perfect base for make up.”
And it wasn’t the only product she recommended.
Next up was their 17. Ultimate Look Finishing Primer, which costs a price-friendly £3.
She wrote: “Honestly there is no powder which compares to this for a matte look and I’ve tried so many being an oily girl.

“Also controversial but I like to apply with my finger and dab into the skin for a full coverage.”
The make-up buff was also a fan of their 17. CC Cream, which is only £5.
She wrote: “Leaves the skin looking so flawless, evens skin tone really nicely without having to use a foundation.”
However, she said they need to bring out a more diverse range of shades.
Finally, she also recommended their £4 lip balm, and claimed it was a dupe for a Clinique version.
Many people seemed to be a fan of the beauty range, with one saying: “My favourite brand.”
Another added: “Budget but make it look spenny.”
