BEAUTY lovers are raving about a bargain buy that's essentially like ''Botox in a bottle'' - and it's selling for under £10.

When it comes to banishing wrinkles and fine lines, the first words to spring to mind tend to be Botox and filler injections - but although these can give instant results, not only are they rather pricey but are also options that can go awfully wrong.

Mortified people all across the world have been left with disastrous results, including ''square root eyebrows'' and even a crooked mouth after injectors pumped in too much of the product.

Luckily, if you're on the lookout for a non-invasive method that's also purse-friendly, you've come to the right place, as shoppers have found a £9 bargain.

Whilst there are a number of affordable skincare buys in the market, beauty lovers have been loving ARGIRELINE SOLUTION 10% by the cult favourite brand, The Ordinary.

The skincare giant - which recently redesigned its iconic serum - explained this is a water-based solution that prevents the muscle movement which leads to wrinkle formation.

According to the description online, the £9 find will reduce the appearance of wrinkles by preventing skin from folding.

Use twice daily under moisturiser, the serum is particularly powerful around the eyes and forehead, where many of us struggle with wrinkles and fine lines the most.

You can definitely use it as an alternative to Botox!

The 30ml bottle may seem tiny - but it's certainly mighty, especially as it's gleaming in close to 300 positive reviews online.

With an overall rating to 4.2 stars, many shoppers pointed out that it was a close match to expensive Botox treatments.

''After using this solution my skin feels 10 times softer and can tell when I've used it,'' wrote one person of the serum which is applied around eyes and on your forehead.

Another chimed in: ''Love it already. I've had Botox before and I could feel this working so well, I had to concentrate on putting it on my forehead.''

''I'm gonna keep going with this. Haven't been using it long but it's cheaper than Botox,'' a third penned.

Someone else - who reckoned the £9 skincare essential was like ''Botox in a bottle'' - shared their routine and results

''After cleansing and Hyraluronic acid, I massage Argireline Solution into my deeper wrinkles.

''It really does have a Botox effect on my skin. Couldn’t be without it.''

And it's not just the public going totally wild - the industry pros are also raving about The Ordinary serum.

''As an aesthetic practitioner, I cannot rate this enough!

''After 4 weeks, deep lines becomes shallower and you can definitely use it as an alternative to Botox!'' wrote on beauty pro.
