Are you on a budget?

If you're a teen, a mom, or both you are most likely on a budget. You want the nice clothes, make up, hair care supplies, and all that other jazz but don't wanna break the bank. Well I've got a few products that will just make your day then.

Make-up:
For your make up there are some things you can go cheap on and some you can't.

eye-shadow:- if you like lots of different looks and colors check on coastal scents 88 pallett
                    it's about $15 and is great quality, plus you get tons of colors so you can do any look
                    - other good eye-shadow brands (that are cheap) are nyx, e.l.f, wet n wild, and revloneye-liner: -favorite eyeliner in the world is urban decay, BUT it is very expensive
                -liquid eyeliner = e.l.f brand. it's only $1 and has the best quality!
               -nyx, cover girl, ulta, and wet n wild are other cheap eye liners
foundation:- i love maybeline liquid moose foundation, it goes on smooth and is perfect for dry skin
                 -for a powder i would say e.l.f once again, it's about 6 dollars and lasts a long time
                 - for a concelear (sorry for the spelling) i love covergirls aquasmooth foundation, it's
                  also a good eye shadow primer
mascarra: this is the ONLY one where I will go the extra buck for because all the cheap mascaras
               seem to flake and smudge and do nothing.
               volume: loreal paris with the red and white tube, (dont have name sorry!)
               natural: SUPER CHEAP!! almay, at the the dollar store in a twisty tube where you can
               choose 1,2, or 3 and it gives a great natural black lash look
               length: maybeline silloutte

hair care:
if you're like me and youre hair gets oily during pregnancy you're lucky and get to use really cheap great smelling shampoo!!
VO5 shampoo and conditioner is only a dollar and has tons of scents to chose from. It controls the oils and still keeps it looking healthy and shiny.
if you're like me before pregnancy and had dry/damaged hair you will need an extra oomph.
favorite brands are herbal essence, pantene, and aussie

as far as styling products go I would say for mouse: herbal essence, hairspray: aussie or garnier, and for a leave in conditioner: aussie, herbal essence, or panetene
*you can pick a specific one based on hair type and what you want to achieve*

SKIN CARE!!
this is my BIGGEST helpful hint for you!!
if you want to prevent or make stretch marks disappear I have some advice
obviously you can't prevent them 100% but you can lessen the chance of them or make the appearance of them look lighter.
burts bees mama bees line is a decent priced line that works amazing, i previously posted a blog about the butter, but now i'm hooked on the oil with vitamin E. it has already made the purple lines i was getting lighter, smells like lemon, and goes a very long way!!

for your face I recomend anything that isn't harsh chemicals. my favorites lately have been clean and clear morning burst shine and burts bees orange facial cleanser. i like the citrus face washes because they wake my skin up.

I am going to start filming some makeup and hair tutorials and posting them on here. I also am going to start trying to post more frequently again! thanks for reading and hope i helped save you a few dollars!
