Let\’s Talk Makeup on a Budget
With a poor economy many of us cannot afford to buy high end makeup. As a result I have received numerous emails and comments about makeup on a budget. So I hit up Ulta with $50 to buy foundation, mascara, eyeshadow, blush and bronzer.
Let\’s Talk Foundation
I don\’t know about you, but my skin is important to me and I want to treat it right. I think one should never use liquid foundation.
My favorite foundation is bareMinerals Original($26) or Matte($28) SPF 15. You can get a foundation that matches exactly with your skintone – not to mention the large jar will last you at least three months.
Let\’s say you buy the Matte foundation, and it last you three months which is 93 days. This means the foundation is only costing you 30 cents per day to use!
When I use mascara I love serious volume. Great Lash BIG Mascara gave me all the volume I wanted for only $4.99!
For only $4.99 you can get three shades of blush which includes bronze for highlighting.
For only $4.00 you can get four gorgeous eyeshadow shades that actually stay on and look good!

I have been using elf for eyeshadows. They work just as good as the other drugstore brands.

Thanks for this! Now that I'm no longer supported by my parents, so I'm having to wean myself off of MAC and I'm totally lost.
