Ways to Stay Beautiful on a Budget

Ways to Stay Beautiful on a Budget

By Rebecca Sebek

Believe it or not, most women won't skimp on their beauty routine whether the economy's up or down. However, if you're the frugal type, you can stay movie star ready on a budget! You can still buy your beauty products if you know how to shop. You don't have to spend $300 on the latest beauty product to look and feel beautiful. Sometimes spending less is more!

Ways to Stay Beautiful on a Budget

Use coupons. If you're not clipping coupons, you're allowing money to fly out of your wallet at a rapid pace. Many beauty companies like Revlon, Cover Girl, Maybelline, L'Oréal, and others offer coupons within your local paper or online. Their products are just as good as the more expensive brands. Sometimes, they're better than high end products.

Take advantage of sample beauty packs. Sometimes it's better to 'try' a product before you really buy it. Some beauty brands offer sample or trial sizes of their products. This is a great way to see if the product works for you without having to purchase the 'real' thing.

Trim your own bangs and ends. This may scare some women, but you can trim your own bangs. You can buy salon scissors for $20 or less that will do the job. Cut your bangs when they're dry. If you cut them when they're wet, you may cut-off too much. You can cut your ends the same way. Take small sections and make sure everything is even. Don't take too much off!

Get your haircut at the local beauty school. Believe it or not, some people are 'natural' hairstylists. While they may not have 10 or more years of experience, you may be pleasantly surprised at the amount of talent out there. Take a chance and see what the local school has to offer.

Purchase your clothes from a vintage or consignment shop. If you know how to shop and what to look for, you can find terrific bargains on designer labels. The only drawback is that you may have to go through racks and racks of clothing to find what you're looking for. The time spent is worth it if you can score some fabulous deals. You'll look good and your friends will want to know your secret to finding great clothes!

It's possible to stay and look beautiful no matter the state of your or your country's economy. You don't have to sacrifice not looking good because you may not be earning what you used to three years ago. You just need to become creative. In fact, you could probably start a business and teach others how to look beautiful no matter the economy. With the money you save, you'll be able to pay off any credit card debt you have or go back to school. It's a win-win situation!
