Being a woman is hard work, and work is daily and year-round. The fair sex has no free time. Even if there is a lull at work, and everything is in order at home, then surprises can be thrown by your own appearance. Either acne will attack, then wrinkles will multiply. So the purchase of decorative and medical cosmetics is an inevitable hole where funds flow. The only way out is to try to replace luxury products and find out if budget cosmetics are good.
Eternal Crisis
Although every day we hear about the economic crisis from TV screens, the country's foreign policy is still far from a simple layman. But we face new crises every day. Either the conflict at work does not allow to live, then the quarrel with the second half. If the deadline has come, then most often we neglect our ownsleep for the sake of the result, and as a result we get fresh wrinkles and bruises under the eyes. A good make-up can mask this "beauty", but it's not enough to master the brushes. You will also have to choose decent cosmetics. There is an opinion that only an expensive product is of high quality, but as soon as you calculate how much money will be spent on a complete set of funds, the enthusiasm disappears. And many women begin to buy the cheapest products, paying attention only to the declared effect, and not to the quality. It is because of this attitude to cosmetics that women often meet with leaky mascara, smeared eyeliner and crumbling shadows. You can't save on yourself! But you can shop smart! There are budget analogues of luxury cosmetics.
Price range
How much are you willing to spend on cosmetics per month? A thousand rubles? Less? Or much more? Let's start from needs, not from desires. If you set a goal to collect a full basket of cosmetics at a time, then you definitely won’t meet the small amount. Be sure to read the composition of decorative cosmetics and find out the meaning of unfamiliar words. Remember that it has long been proven that luxury cosmetics do not have an absolute advantage over the mass market. Mascara should not equal the cost of new jeans, and a good lipstick may well cost less than a hundred rubles. But the shops must have samples. Don't neglect them.
Try to choose products of the same brand. This way you can achieve the best effect. But this is not a fundamental condition. To not once againrisk your wallet, immediately choose those stands where budget cosmetics are presented. And when choosing, do not forget that merchandisers put the cheapest goods on the lower shelves, since the consumer looks there last.
