Beauty on a Budget

A guide to looking good on a budget.

Most women like to look and feel their best, but you don't have to be rich to look good, you can still pamper yourself and look a million dollars with the cheapest of clothes and some imaginative ways of getting quality make up with little or no money.

Swap Shops

Set up a swap shop with your girlfriends bring a bag full of items that you dont want and tell everyone to the same. I guarantee you that you will find something that your friend can no longer wear that looks great on you. You havent spent a penny but you can still leave with a few different items.

Warehouse Shops

There are plenty of warehouse shops around where you can pick up designer labels for low prices TK Max is the biggest example of this kind of shop but there are loads more smaller ones you just have to hunt around. Make the effort and you will find plenty of these kind of shops around.

Designers on the High Street

These days big name designers are putting their names to high street collections, such as John Rocha at Debenhams, there are loads of other collections, even Tesco are doing clothes now that are pretty good quality and great value for money and all designed by big name designers.

Second Hand Shops

I know most people run for the hills when they hear second hand but you can find one off designer pieces in second hand stores. One shop that I have found some great stuff in is a shop called Traid, it is a second hand store that focuses on recycling so they see it as you are buying recycled clothes not necessarily second hand. They do sell new clothes in there but they are all made out of recycled material.

In terms of beauty you can get make up, hair treatments and much more on a budget you just have to use your head.

Beauty Samples

If you go to any department store and try out a product more often than none they will have loads of samples stored away ask them to take one so you can test it out for a while before committing to a purchase. You can get perfumes, lotions, lipsticks, eyeshadows, you name it you just have to ask. If they so no well so be it, if they say yes then good for you!

Free or cheap hair cuts and styling

You can get your hair cut professionally by becoming a hair model at a salon like Tony and guy they will normally do it for free or for a very cheap price.

Cheap beauty

You can get facials manicures and other beauty treatments for much cheaper if you go with mobile beauty therapist. Mobile beauty therapists are cheaper than the salon because they have little overheads and you can enjoy your treatment in the comfort of your own home.
