A young beauty enthusiast surprised herself when she paid R200 for makeup from Foschini.

Micro influencer Kayleigh, who uses the handle @beach_blond on TikTok, took to the app to share with her followers that she scored big while shopping at the local fashion and beauty store.

Unaware that Foschini had a makeup line, Kayleigh bought a few products to try and only spent R200 on her purchase.

"The prices of these products blew me away. I also got a shampoo infused with argon oil for R90."

After applying her foundation, contour and setting spray to her face, the young woman experimented with the Foschini makeup products. In the video, Kayleigh used a R50 cheek and lip tint, a R70 blush quad, a liquid eyeshadow that was on sale for R20, and R23 lip oils and lipgloss.

Throughout the video, Kayleigh shared positive reviews of the product and, towards the end, showed off the stunning final look. She said:

"I am blown away. I have super high hopes for this shampoo... I achieved this look for R200, even less because I didn't use all the products on one look."

Kayleigh replied:

"Not sticky at all."

@raine._d made a suggestion:

"Try the eyeshadow palette. It's amazing and well-pigmented."

@kellygolding_, who long knew about the makeup line, commented:

"I’ve been using their contour quad for years. It’s so good."
