Beauty hacks to save $$$

Tweet

Here are a few ways I like to save money on my beauty routine: When my mascara starts getting dried and clumpy, I add a few drops of artificial tears and shake well. Instead of buying dry shampoo for when I don't have time to wash my hair, I just sprinkle some baby powder on my hair, then brush it out. I always use a primer before I put on foundation. It not only makes the foundation go on much smoother, I don't seem to use as much of it so my foundation lasts a little longer. I buy the E.L.F. brand primer which is very inexpensive and works really well for me. Instead of buying lip gloss, I just dab on a little Vaseline petroleum jelly on my lips. it's also a great lip softener when I use it before I go to bed. When your favorite lipstick is down to the rim, instead of buying another one right away, use a lip brush to get the last of it out of the tube. When I've used the last of my special shampoo, I add just a little water to the bottle to get another time or two of hair washing. Hope these have been helpful....do you all have some beauty hacks you'd like to share with us? PS The photo is of a quilt I have that was made in 1898.
