The Summer Beach collection at Poundstretcher includes a body butter, a body scrub and a perfume mist, perfect for making you look and smell your best all summer long.
Plus, each product is priced at just £2.99, making it perfect for penny pinchers.
The Caramel Sunset body scrub will exfoliate your skin leaving it feeling fresh and revitalised.
A description reads: "Indulge in a luxurious at-home spa experience and treat your senses to the ultimate tropical getaway.
"This decadent body scrub will transform your skin and transport your mind to a sun-drenched beach, leaving you feeling refreshed, renewed, and radiant."
The body scrub also comes in a Caramel Sunset flavour, that is bound to make your skin smell like a tropical paradise.

Sharing details of the bargain buy to the B&M Scanner And Other Bargains! Facebook group, a private group with 328,000 members, one penny pincher said: "Another dupe from Poundstretcher in selected stores."
Commenting under this, another shopper highlighted that she has also spotted the products in B&M.
Primark adds brand new Sol De Janeiro dupes to its beauty aisles and they're perfect for keeping you smelling sweet on holiday too
The body butter and body scrub is a dupe for Sol de Janeiro's Bum Bum Body collection, which is priced at £39, making the Poundstretcher buy £36 cheaper.
The perfume mist is a dupe of the Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 Mist which is priced at £20.40, making the Poundstretcher buy £17.40 cheaper.
Like the Poundstretcher product, the high-end buys have notes of salted caramel, which promise to "instantly transport you to the sultry beaches of Rio de Janeiro."
And Poundstretcher isn't the only place stocking up on dupes of the popular beauty buys.
Primark recently launched a £6 travel set, inspired by Sol de Janeiro products.
The new kit comes in Primark's beloved Santorini Sunsets fragrance.
We've already had the scent in a body scrub, shower gel and pear-themed body butter, but now it's been formulated into an array of Sol de Janeiro-esque minis.
The travel set comes with a mini perfume mist, a mini body butter and a lip balm.
Primark's social media team took to Instagram to promote the travel-friendly buy, which is currently available to shop across the UK.
'Bring your glow wherever you go,' they said.

Norwich man 'demoralised' after Ryanair damages wheelchair
A wheelchair rugby player says he feels "demoralised" after an airline refused to pay the full cost of replacing his damaged Connor-Saunders, 28, who has cerebral palsy, arrived back at London Stansted Airport on a Ryanair flight from Toulouse, France, to find his £9,000 bespoke chair bent out of Connor-Saunders, of Norwich, described Ryanair's offer of £1,500 compensation as "insulting," saying it was only a fraction of the cost of a new chair. A Ryanair spokesperson said the company had offered the maximum compensation he was entitled to. Mr Connor-Saunders, who plays for London WRC, is a personal back at Stansted last December after a tournament, he saw the back of his wheelchair - which he uses in everyday life, but not for rugby - had been said it was "demoralising" as he used the made-to-measure chair for "everything"."A wheelchair is not your generic medical kit, or it's not your generic luggage that's lost and damaged and can be easily replaced," he said. Mr Connor-Saunders, who did not have travel insurance, said the company that made it told him it could not be used a hammer to straighten out the bent frame but said it was now painful to sit in, and he thought it was likely to break soon."I'm just sitting on a ticking time bomb at the moment," he said."I can only bear to be in my chair for two to three hours at a time or I'm in pain for the rest of the day." Emails state that the airline has accepted responsibility for damaging the wheelchair and has offered him £1,500 in compensation."That wouldn't even cover the costs of two wheels, let alone replacing the chair," said Mr Connor-Saunders."This has stopped me from being able to work. I'm incapable of fronting up that extra money myself."A spokesperson from Ryanair said wheelchair handling at Toulouse Airport was provided by a separate company that it paid for."Under the Montreal Convention, the maximum compensation this passenger is entitled to is £1,500," the spokesperson added.

Row over 'cheeky' Deepings homes plan
A row has broken out over new housing in City Council (PCC) has been accused of being "cheeky" for wanting to put new homes close to its border with The Deepings in Lincolnshire.A council spokesperson said "the area's young people need new housing".However, Councillor Phil Dilks, of neighbouring South Kesteven District Council (SKDC), said it would "put more strain on infrastructure". The Deepings, which includes Deeping St James and Market Deeping, currently has 6,276 homes, according to the 2021 has allocated a further 1,800 homes in the area under its local plan, which is currently out for public has also earmarked some nearby land, just into its border, to take 1,050 houses, in its local plan, which is also being consulted on. If both plans get signed-off by the government, the total number of homes in the area would increase by 45%. Judy Stevens of Deeping St James Parish Council said residents were worried about the prospect of more housing without extra facilities such as shops and schools."People already feel let down because they have been promised increased infrastructure as a result of already existing new developments and that hasn't translated into reality," she said."They're not saying not in my backyard, but they are saying no to this many." Dilks, who represents Deeping St James on SKDC, said: "Market Deeping and Deeping St James are entirely in South Kesteven District Council. What Peterborough are looking at is a piece of land south of Market Deeping."We have made our views known to Peterborough and I think it's a bit of a cheek when clearly those people would be using the infrastructure that is already strained in The Deepings".Councillor Nick Thulbourn, cabinet member for growth and regeneration at PCC, agreed anyone buying the new houses in its area would use the public amenities over the border in he said any strain on infrastructure would be factored into the local plan when it was adopted."Peterborough is a young growing city so we need housing and we need for young people to get on with their lives," he said.

BP to update on cost-cutting progress as Elliot increases pressure, FT reports
Aug 4 (Reuters) - BP (BP.L), opens new tab will announce updates on its $5 billion cost-cutting initiative on Tuesday, amid growing pressure from activist investor Elliott Management to take stronger action to reduce its operating expenses, the Financial Times reported on Monday. Elliott wants BP CEO Murray Auchincloss to add another $5 billion of cost savings to the $4 billion-$5 billion in reductions by 2027 he announced in February from a 2023 baseline, the FT report said. Reuters could not immediately verify the report. BP and Elliott did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The hedge fund has "identified tens of thousands of BP support staff globally" as an example of the cost base, the report added. BP has already cut $750 million of costs towards its target in 2024, and is looking to reach its cost savings target through job cuts, divestment and streamlining supply chains, the FT report said. Reuters reported in April that the activist investor would like BP to cut its spending to around $12 billion a year, down from a current range of $13 billion-$15 billion, through to 2027, and deepen its cost cuts, especially on administrative expenses. Elliott, which holds a stake of little more than 5% in BP, also wants the oil major to replace its strategy chief and create separate units for upstream and downstream activities to improve accountability.
