Crazy Prices

PhotobucketI don’t know about you but I do not like to be taken advantage of by the cosmetic industry. I went to the department store where I buy my foundation and got the same stuff I have purchased for years. I paid with my debit card so I didn’t notice the price I was charged. When I got home and went to put the amount into my check register, I was shocked. That little, itty bitty bottle of foundation was over $30.00. Now, I am willing to pay extra for a special pair of shoes or a fancy purse but this was makeup! I took that bottle back to the store and got my money back. My sister helped me pick out a makeup from the cosmetic department at our local grocery store. I like my new makeup.

I discovered a fantastic mascara. Volume Exact mascara by Cover Girl is wonderful. It goes on just thick enough to make my lashes look good without any clumps of mascara caking up. I found it on sale and bought three tubes. Woo hoo for me!

Do you have any favorites in your make up routine?

    I really like Cover Girl make-up, too. The face powder smells so good! I’ve tried more expensive make-up in the past, but I came back to Cover Girl again. It’s great make-up for a good price!

    Yep, I Lovvvvvvvvve my foundation by Rimmel. It’s an all day one but costs almost half what the others do and it’s fantastic! Covers well, but doesn;t break me out nd a great price. I tried one by Avon…..and normally i’m pleased with them, but i used 2 times and requested my money back, it was AWFUL!
