WITH Christmas fast approaching, most of us have already started picking up gifts and presents for our loved ones.

She says: "If you switch to Lidl's beauty range this will save you up to £132 on just these four products alone!
"They're all over social media so if you want to get your hands on them I'd grab them before they're gone."
Deluxe hair and body mist - save £34
This incredible body mist has been hailed as one of the best alternatives to the luxury brand Sol de Janeiro.
While the Brazilian bodycare brand's iconic mist retails for £38, Lidl's version costs just £3.99.
Mai says: "Sol's salted caramel spray is a staple in my fragrance collection, but I always save it for special occasions.
"I picked up this version and now I can use this every day".
Deluxe aromatic body cleanser - save £29
This dupe is the perfect example to show how beauty doesn't need to be expensive.
While Aesop’s luxurious hand wash is a beauty guru favourite, it is a little pricey at £33 a tub.
And Mia has found that Lidl's Deluxe aromatic body cleanser does the job just as well for just £3.99.
She adds: "I've just had a new bathroom so money is tight.
"Picking this up added a little luxury whilst avoiding the ridiculous price tag."
Shower gel - save £24
Shower gels smell amazing and have a luxurious feel, but it's not always easy to justify spending fortunes for them.
Luckily, we don't have to, because Mia has found the perfect product from Lidl that gives the same fresh feeling as Lush's products do.
The beauty brand has gained popularity on social media recently, and shower gels cost around £26 a bottle.
But Lidl is offering a much cheaper alternative at just £1.99 a bottle.
Mia says: "I'm a sucker for shopping at Lush, but it really adds up.
"This smells super refreshing and gives you the same fresh feeling when you step out the shower".
Full range of Lidl's Lush dupes
FROM kitchenware to household essentials, Lidl’s dupes have attracted a loyal following among savvy shoppers.
And this month, the popular supermarket chain is sending shoppers wild with a new £1.99 addition to their skincare and beauty line range.
The budget supermarket has launched its own Lush-inspired Deluxe shower gel collection which includes four different products.
The 500ml bottles bear a striking resemblance to the iconic Lush products and come in a range of scents.
Dizzy Rose is a dupe of Lush favourite Rose Jam, while Mintilicious tingle is very similar to Dirty.
Meanwhile, shoppers who love Lush's Sleepy scent can try Lidl's Relax shower gel instead.
And the supermarket's Honey I'm Home scent is thought to be an imitation of the original Honey I Washed the Kids.
Hand lotion - save £46
We're all looking for the perfect thing that will make our hands feel soft and smooth.
And while we might be tempted to fork out £48 for one of Jo Malone's infamous hand lotions, Mia has urged us to check our local Lidl store first.
For just £1.99, Lid's Wood Sage and Sea Salt works just as well while saving us £46.
