Yesterday I wrote about things that were expensive, but worth the bucks. These 5 items are cheap, but super fab. On with the show:
1. E.L.F Clear Mascara. I love clear mascara, but it is typically fairly expensive. Not so with the E.L.F. stuff. It’s a DOLLAR, YO! Now, you might be thinking “You get what you pay for”, but in this case, it’s not so. This stuff is great.
2. Everyday Minerals Free Sample Kit. Everyday Minerals is a mineral foundation like Bare Escentuals, but (in my experience) a better quality and much, much cheaper. Like I said yesterday, I like my tinted moisturizer from BeneFit, but sometimes more coverage is desired. This is when I go for my Everyday Minerals. This sample kit is extremely generous, and is the best beauty bargain I know of. You do have to pay something like 5 or 6 bucks shipping, but it is completely worth it. AND they take PayPal!
3. Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque. Great for blackheads and with that nifty minty smell, the Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque is the best thing since sliced bread. It’s about 3 bucks at Sally Beauty Supply. (No, you don’t need a card to shop there. But I did pay 5 bucks to get their discount card, which has saved me hordes of money, since Sally is my fave place to shop other than Sephora)
4. NYX Eyeshadow, any shade. Remember my love for MAC eyeshadows? Yeah, I nearly love these as much, but these are only 5 bucks. Great colors, wonderful texture, I cannot say enough for NYX eyeshadow.
5. Rimmel Volume Boost Liquid Lipcolor. You like plumping lipgloss? So do I. The Rimmel stuff is pretty good. Some plumping lipglosses are PAINFUL but Rimmel’s is not, just a nifty little tingle. The colors are great (pay no attention to what I have linked. Go to the drugstore and see them for yourself) and it has decent staying power.
OK, now that I’ve shared my secrets, let’s hear yours? What are your best beauty bargains?
