Beauty is big business and we\'re so fed up with penny-pinching it\'s making us want to rebel and splash out on a long weekend at an ultra expensive spa. However we realise that the bags we\'d get from worrying about the overdraft would undo all that hard pampering. But whether you\'re in need of a tension-easing massage, a hot wax before your hols or a manicure to tidy-up your cuticles, beauty treatments needn\'t cost the earth. In fact we\'ve turned detective and found the 10 top treatments to make you gorgeous all for under £40, which means you\'ll still have enough cash to go out for well-earned cocktail post-pampering.

Benefit Waxing - nationwide
\r\n\r\n
Strappy tops, bare legs and - eek - itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny not-necessarily-polka dot bikinis are summer essentials meaning some serious hair removal is in order. It might not be painless, but the best bikini wax we\'ve ever experienced was inflicted on us at the Benefit beauty boutique. Trust us, not only will you look gorge in a bikini but your love life will be transformed too.
