#BEAUTY #MAKEUP #TRENDS #SPRINGSUMMER2020 External beauty is not always a merit of nature. In the conditions of megacities, the constantly deteriorating natural situation and the rhythm of life without rest and sleep, we are forced not only to maintain our beauty, but to actively deal with it. Good decorative and makeup products are not cheap, but I know how to get the best by spending very little.




Do not save

The first rule to remember when choosing cosmetics is that you cannot save on it, no matter how paradoxical this may sound in the framework of our topic. Bad mascara will cause an allergy, a concealer made by scammers will clog pores and acne will go down your face, and the money you save on creams will be spent on a good (and most likely expensive) dermatologist. However, we make a reservation, we have nothing against the mass market, where you can find many good and effective means. We oppose fakes and substandard manufacturers and sometimes advise paying attention not only to price, but also to composition and brand.



Two in one

A good example of how you can save money two or even three times is to buy a multifunctional tool. For example, a shampoo that can be used as a balm, a shower gel with a moisturizing effect (you don't need body milk), blush that are suitable as lip gloss and eye shadow, and finally BB and CC creams that moisturize, mattify the skin, and also give it an even tone.



Testers

If you want to try this or that remedy for a long time, but now you don’t have any extra money in your pocket, and you don’t want to take any risks, take courage and ask the consultants in the store for a sampler. In all stores, almost most tools have a small tester. Well, no one canceled trying shades, lipsticks and tonal products in the store. The main thing is to ask for tester to be treated with an antibacterial composition and provide disposable brushes, which can also be found almost everywhere. By the way, in many beauty brand corners, you can try to makeup for free, just in case you need to look good, and you can’t afford makeup artist.




Specific set

In fact, we do not need hundreds of jars and tons of funds, just a few high-quality and truly necessary. Make a list of what you really can't do without: a moisturizer, foundation, mascara, lipstick, and so what else do you use every day.





Brushes

The good news is that with the help of high-quality brushes you can not only draw perfect arrows, make the best smokey-eyes in the world, but also save on other means well. For example, you will need many times less “tonal” if applied with a brush. And they are the best helpers when you need to get from the tube, almost ending lipstick. By the way, if you can skillfully apply lipstick on your lips with a brush, you can also reduce its consumption, as well as dispense with the use of a pencil, as it can make an ideal contour. The bad news is that high-quality brushes are expensive, but suddenly you have a couple lying around and lying in the dresser idle.




Home Salon

Some salon treatments can be done at home. Today, there are many excellent exfoliants that can replace salon peels. We are no longer talking about manicure, which, seems, we recently begun to do everything on our own - the amount of funds for nail care at home is growing every day.
