Bridal Beauty
Stretching your beauty funds
Beauty has a price. But who says you have to pay it? Using a few
tricks of the trade (and a little extra effort), you can get more bang
for your beauty buck. Here are six creative ways to save some cash,
compliments of Diane Irons, author of 911 Beauty Secrets (Sourcebooks,
1999) and Tricia O'Shea, makeup artist at the Oscar Blandi Salon in
New York.
1 Bypass the beauty counter and head for the art store to stock up on
makeup brushes. You can get the same pony, sable, and goat hair
bristles -- in all sizes -- at a fraction of the price. (A pony hair
blush brush that costs up to $60 in department stores is only $6 to $9
at the art store.)
2 Make your own tinted moisturizer. Simply put a dab of last summer's
liquid bronzer in the palm of your hand, then mix in enough of your
regular moisturizer to make it spreadable.
3 Use baby wipes instead of makeup remover towelettes. They're gentle
on your skin and your wallet -- $4 for 80 compared with $14 for 40 at
some beauty counters. Fragrance-free wipes are best.
4 Use a transparent pencil case -- the kind kids use for school -- as
your cosmetics bag. Besides its bargain price (about $1.50), it lets
you find everything at a glance.
5 Make your lipstick last longer by salvaging the leftover part that's
buried in the tube -- often a quarter of an inch or more. Scoop it out
with a bobby pin and pack it down in a small plastic palette or
pillbox, then use a lip brush to apply it.
6 Revive nail polish that's drying out in the bottle by adding a drop
of nail polish thinner (available at most beauty supply stores), which
lubricates it without affecting the color. Shake well, then test the
consistency on a piece of paper.
