Thrifty Beauty Questions

I have to start being more thrifty with my beauty regimen and was hoping to get some guidance from you ladies.  I'm looking for drug store recommendations for the following items:

Light weight liquid foundation

Under eye wrinkle cream

At home hair coloring

Thank you ladies!

Re: Thrifty Beauty Questions

  • I don't have any recs for drugstore foundation or eye cream, but in the winter I go a shade or so darker for my hair color.  I've had really good results with Clairol Colorgloss from Sally Beauty Supply.

  • When I used foundation I really liked the Almay brand.  The others seemed heavy and would make me break out.  For hair color I like gardnier frutis or however you spell it.  For haircolor you just have to make sure there is no metallic dyes in it.

  • Recently I used the John Frieda Precision Foam Colour on my hair, and it's by far my favorite that I've ever used. Very even looking color.

     Once in a while, I'll switch it up and use a drugstore brand for foundation and I really like Neutrogena healthy skin or Revlon colorstay.

     No recs on the undereye stuff, I think I recently watched a news report on them testing the drugstore brands of that, and I think they said Garnier had the best results.

    Use the savings on foundation & wrinkle cream to still color your hair at the salon.
