In a nutshell about what you can save on. Print and hang over your bed so you don’t waste too much.
Selective perfumery
Details create an expensive image, and perfumery is one of the most important. But what to do when there is no money for niche fragrances? Of course, some before an important meeting or date fly into a cosmetic corner and heartily puff themselves with the most expensive scent, but we know another way – it is called “drinking” perfume. This is when several people jointly buy an expensive bottle, from which 10-15 ml are poured into atomizers – sealed mini-bottles with sprayers. It turns out a significant saving – you can collect a whole collection of rare fragrances for the conditional 1000 rubles each (with a market price of at least 15 rubles per 000 ml) and change them according to your mood. People around you will think that you have a hundred expensive bottles in your boudoir, and that’s all we need!
Lipstick
You can save money by buying a multifunctional stick – these are available from Bobby Brown and Nars. They can tint the lips without a pencil (the density and translucent texture allow) and do the draping – contouring with blush. It turns out a complete image – some especially sophisticated in makeup can let them down the upper eyelid.
Shaving foam
Since we are tightening our belts, the first thing that should be abandoned is shugaring and waxing. We take the razor – but not the shaving foam. Instead of a product with a frantic consumption and zero benefit, use an unsuitable hair mask or conditioner – they will allow the razor to glide over the skin for a ridiculous 100-150 rubles. And they have less consumption.
Massage oil
Want to have a romantic evening with your beloved, but don’t have the money for a spa? Remember what you have in your kitchen cupboard: olive oil and coconut oil are perfect for a massage. The latter, by the way, is sold in weighty 500 g jars – it will be enough for ten sessions or a dozen young people (but we did not say that).
Manicure
We also save on this salon procedure – we buy sea salt at the pharmacy for 25 rubles, and lemons at the market. A bath with sea water will strengthen the nails better than newfangled coatings, and if you treat them with lemon juice afterwards, you will get rid of yellowness. The prime cost of such a “service” is about 40 rubles against 1000 in the salon.
What you can’t save on
1. Dentist. It is better to find a proven one and not rely on the price, so as not to suffer later.
2. Foundation… If it is not possible to buy a suitable one (no matter how much it will cost), it is better not to use it at all – subcutaneous tissue and a rash provoked by the wrong tone can be treated for a long time and is expensive.
3. Coloration… The same as the previous item. No money – not worth starting. Maintaining an ash blonde is difficult and expensive, and after dyeing, hair needs special care. If you really want to change your hair color, it is better to choose coloring shatush or balayazh. As if they were specially invented for those who have money problems – the grown roots look more than appropriate, and such coloring can be updated whenever you want.
