Guide to Looking Good on a Budget

Make an appointment at your local beauty salon and get these essentials done.

The essentials are:

  • a good eyebrow shape and a lash and brow tint. Think about it, this will save you masses of time in your week, no more trying to apply mascara quickly and sticking the mascara wand in your eye, or worse - going without any. No more badly pencilled-in brows, done in a hurry. You will have dark lashes and perfect brows all the time. The perfect frame for your beautiful peepers. If you have very short lashes, think about a couple of lash extensions or a lash perm to open up the eyes.
  • Buy some fake tan and apply it lightly over your face and neck. This will give you a lightly tanned glow, removing the need for makeup.

These tips are the answer to looking good, all the time. This will give a basic look, which can be worn on its own, or modified to suit the occasion. For extra glamour simply add the following;

  • Apply a tinted moisturizer with SPF 15+. This will give radiance and protection.
  • Apply a lip stain. This will last all day and will onIy need a slick of gloss to glam it up.
  • Apply a little vaseline with a clean mascara wand to the tips of your tinted lashes and brush through brows for a glossy, well-groomed look.
  • File and apply a natural nail gel, which lasts for at least a week, without chipping.
  • Invest in a good pair of hair straighteners, such as GHD's. Hair straightener/stylers will ensure the hair looks sleek at all times, and are excellent for drying up excess oil. Once practiced, hair can be straightened in a matter of minutes. You also have the choice to curl hair with these too.
  • Invest in a smart pair of leather court shoes to lengthen and slim legs.
  • Buy multi packs of tights and keep a spare pair in your bag in case of snagging.
  • Check clothes are clean, pressed and mended at beginning of week.

Following these simple beauty tips will ensure you look good at all times, and save you money too. Budget beauty need not be cheap and nasty, using good products that are long lasting will prevent having to re-apply throughout the day. Looking good is more about investing a little time and money getting the basics right, which will payoff in the long run giving you more time to do the things you enjoy.

Clever girls look good without the hassle.
