Splurge Vs. Save - Makeup Edition

By Danielle Goguen on September 23, 2015

Sometimes we’re feeling thrifty, but other times we feel like investing a few extra dollars to get something a little more splurge worthy. One thing a lot of girls struggle with is buying quality makeup, so I’m going to give you a few options on great products you can choose to splurge or save on!

Lipstick

Dark lips are in this fall - they were all over the runways making their comeback. A pretty statement lip will bring your outfit from drab to fab!

Splurge Option : Clinique Chubby Stick Intense Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm - Deep Raspberry - $16

Save Option: CoverGirl LipPerfection Jumbo Gloss Balm -Frosted Cherry Twist - $7

Blush 

A pretty blush can be the difference between a finished makeup look and that “what’s missing” look.

Splurge Option: Nars - Dolce Vita - $30

Save Option: ELF - Blushing Rose - $6

Bronzer

Give your face a little glow this fall with some bronzer:

Splurge Option: Nars - Laguna - $36

Save Option: NYX Matte Bronzer - $9

Eyeshadow 

Neutral eyeshadow colors are essential to have in your makeup kit. You can wear them alone or mix in a bit of brown to create a light smokey eye.

Splurge Option: Mac - Naked Lunch - $16

Save Option: NYX - Sahara -$9

Eyeliner

I love eyeliner. I wear it with just about all my makeup looks. Wear it with eyeshadow to add to the look or wear it alone with some mascara.

Splurge Option: Kat Von D - Tattoo Liner - $16

Save Option: Revlon - ColorStay Liquid Eye Pen - $7

Highlighter

It’s all about the strobing look. Swipe a bit of highlighter over your blush and down your nose to give yourself a shimmery glow!

Splurge Option : Nars - Albatross - $30

Save Option : Elf - Gotta Glow - $6
