Makeup Bag Monday and the story of how I got all this free or cheap.

Like most girls I love makeup... I know mom,I'm nothing like you.
Being the savvy person I am, I really hate the idea of spending more than $5 on a product. My husband will be happy to tell you I rarely break that idea.
Heres a look into my on the go make up bag and how I got some lovely products (I mean it, I don't carry around something I don't like) for less than you'd expect.



1. Wet n Wild has notoriously cheep make up products.....I'm totally happy with the quality and I think the brush is great. But I'm no eyebrow snob. Check for coupons for this brand.

2. Covergirl has some really great products for a great drugstore price...this is one of them. $3-$4 at Walmart. Look for a coupon too! You might just be able to pick it up for free.

3. Yow...Don't remember the brand of this one. And the wording has worn off. Should throw that away. Moving on...

4. I've heard all the rage about fancy tweezers. I'm happy with my $3 target ones.

5. This is fancy mascara I know.... fancy price? Not for me! In my Birchbox I had a $5 off coupon for. This is pretty great mascara http://w3llpeople.com/index.php/our-story/

6. Elf eyeliner generally runs about $2. 'Nuff said. Keep an eye on their online sales. Free shipping and stackable codes can get you some great deals!

7. Needed a good basic cheep everyday mascara. For $3 it gets the job done. Thanks Elf.

8. Ok this went against every rule in my book. Full price mascara that was more than a single digit price. Ouch, Got me good Sephora! Justified it because I bought it for my wedding.

9. The little sample in my birthday freebie bag that convinced me to buy #8. How dare you do such a tempting thing Sephora!!!

10. Dollar store stain remover pen that has gotten out everything I've ever spilled. Tide who?

11. In one of my many free magazine subs I received a coupon for a free Estee Lauder foundation sample.Make friends with the makeup counter person and maybe they'll give you two like they did for me. (Thanks skin for being in between two shades!) Oh and I got a free makeover that day. Thanks Estee Lauder!

12. I think this was another Birch box item in on my half off boxes. Keep your eye out for promos from them. $5 for a box is a great deal!

13. Burts Bees overly sparkly lip balm. Walmart clearance on a day it was all an additional 50% off! Suck it up and go to Walamrt guys.... even if its just for the makeup on clearance.

14. $1.97 for all day lip stain. Do you have any problem with that? Me neither. Lets go buy every color. But I heard CVS is cheaper than Walmart. I think Walmart was $2.49
15. Defiantly something from Birch Box. Note the size. Pretty small.

16. More Sephora birthday bag freebies. Why do they put the best stuff in there?! Uhg. Want it all.

17. Once again, Sephora freebie. This lipstick has lasted me foreverrrrrr. Ha! Take that Sephora.

18. Either in a Pinch Me box or Vox box. Both AWESOME things to sign up. Full size things to try are the BEST.




I recommend taking Birch Box for a spin for a month.
