Hey people! How's it going?
As a true makeup lover, I sometimes can go a bit too crazy with my shopping and literally spend the most of my money I was saving for something more special than a concealer. Certainly my disappointment won't be that huge if a buying is working great. However, there are some situations when I am so angry about myself as my willpower turns out to be not as strong as I wish it would be. My annoying inner voice keeps saying to me: "Couldn't you wait a bit more? Nothing would happen if bought it few weeks later!". But I genuinely don't care coz the desire to try every single makeup product is much bigger here. For this case I thought I would do a post to remind myself and you where it is okay to splurge and when it is more rational to save some pennies.
In my opinion, you even must spend more money on three following iteams:
- Foundation
- Concealer
- Powder
Why? Friendly reminder that those things you will be putting directly on your skin. I am not saying that, for example, there are no good cheap foundations, but I just feel as their quality might be a bit questionable. As a result you would probably get breakouts all over you face. Nice? Don't think so. Investing in a worthy foundation is not a crime.
Well, there is also another group that I would call "Must Haves That You Don't Really Need But Want". Whether it is a lipstick, highlighter, makeup brush, eyeliner, mascara or whatever it is, and you love them, then do it! I am such a lipstick addict that I do not feel sorry about money spent on all of them. At the same time, I know my limits of making such purchases.
Last but not least - eyeshadow palettes. I know, I know, now there are lots of drugstore brands selling amazing palettes yet you should admit it, eyeshadow palette from the pricey side so worth it.
For buying the rest of makeup I think you should put those money aside and browse makeup ranges of the highstreet brands. Well, if you have opportunite and your budget is not that low, then treat yourself with expensive makeup as much as you wish. There is nothing bad about it.
I do not to offend anybody of you reading this or to be a jungemental piece of poop, but how can you spend a lot on the eyeliners? I mean wow, you must be crazy over them! Much as I do love to treat myself with something special, I am a fan of drugstore too. Most of makeup in my collection is by Maybelline, lipsticks from Bourjois or L'Oreal, for eyebrows I am only using Essence Eyebrow Stylist Set as it works perfectly for me.
Anyway, that it is for today. Where do you prefer to splurge and where to safe?
Will talk to you soon! Yana x
P.S. I am sorry for lack of posts recently. It was the end of school year for me, which means lots of hustle and bustle, so I had literally zero motivation to grab a laptop and write a bit. But I am back on track now! Love you <3
