One for the ladies

All of us women tend to spend more money on the less expensive makeup rather than purchase something a tad bit more expensive.

We do this to try and save ourselves some money. Though truth be told most of the less expensive make up that we purchase tends to wear off quickly and has to be reapplied and of course the less expensive nail polishes we use tends to chip off easily which means getting out the remover and taking it all off and starting again.

Now if we were to spoil ourselves and purchase something that a bit more expensive and lasted longer, wouldn't that save you money. I know that it has saved me and of course my skin.

I have noticed that I am no longer being forced to reapply makeup because it has just disappeared. As for my nail polishes I also upgraded to one which costs just a bit more but manages to stay in place with out coming off every time I do the dishes or wash my hands.

All of these little things really do add up. When using those less expensive makeup's we think that we are getting a bargain but really we aren't. Because of all the reapplying we have had to do we are using much more makeup than what is really needed. By switching to one that actually works, we save ourselves a lot of money.

I fully agree on this one!!! I try to get something that will last and last. The cheaper stuff runs out quick, bu the more expensive last lots longer. So you end up saving money in the long run.

Yes you really do save a lot of money. Of course personally I am not going to spend around $13.00 for some stupid mascara. I find that what I purchased which cost me $5.00 and some change works just as well, lasts just as long and of course saved me several dollars.

Now to be honest for the kids I do tend to purchase the inexpensive stuff because they tend to change it all the time so they go through it rather quickly. Other than that though I purchase makeup that is about mid range. It works just as well as some of the more expensive products that I have tried, but of course saved me some money.

The more things that we find that we can save some money on the better of we are going to be when it comes time to pay bills, save money or shop for things that we really need.
