Why spend on pricey cosmetics when you can shop without being hassled at your local pharmacy or supermarket? I am a big advocate in the “you get what you pay for” theory. But a bargain is never a bad thing. Here are a few categories were being frugal are a benefit.
Mascara-Every great celebrity makeup artist out there is a fan of two mascaras, L’Oreal Voluminous and Maybelline Great Lash. Need I say more?
Eye Shadows-If you use the right base, you can make virtually any eyeshadow pop. Milani makes an awesome selection of colors, as well as the cheapest. They even sell eye shadow quads and sets so that you can make a quick selection! I’ll be doing an exclusive story on Milani soon!

Lots! Particularly Revlon blushes and L’Oreal True Match foundation.
Maybelline Great Lash is overrated – I find that it smears.
please post some of the name of the L’Oreal glosses and the Nars comparisons. I am really feeling this topic

thanks SB! i’m def a voluminous girl. just caught the last day (i think) of the BOGO for voluminous at CVS. yes! can’t wait to try the new voluminous stuff!
Thanks for the great post! It is great to have a less costly alternative!
I love Milani eyeshadows as well, they are such good quality. I don’t particularly like Maybelline Great Lash… but L’Oreal HIP is wonderful and not too expensive, and there are also great reviews out there for NYX’s Doll Eye Mascara. The easiest thing to dupe is lip gloss… don’t be afraid of drugstore makeup!
Great site Scandalous! 🙂
