Save vs Splurge

Neutral Eye Palette

Save: Well People has done a great job keeping prices reasonable while offering some great makeup items. The Power Eye Palette in Taupe has 5 neutral shades with a mix of shimmery and matte colors. These apply well and are long lasting.  Find it here $20

Splurge: Ere Perez makes some gorgeous eye palettes and my favorite one is the Pretty Palette that happens to have very similar shades as the Well People Palette. The shades in this one are a bit more on the shimmery side though. This one has 6 colors. Find it here $36

AHA Tonic

Save: BYBI Beauty has been crushing it with very affordable, natural skincare. The Day Glow tonic has AHA along with mushrooms and floral waters to improve texture and tone. And it’s quite a steal! Shop here $17

Splurge: The G.Tox Malachite + AHA Tonic is somewhere between a serum and a toner. It gently exfoliates and refines pores leaving skin brighter and smoother. Sold here $75

Body Lotion with Lavender

Save: Griffin’s Remedies Bulgarian Lavender Lotion smells great and softens skin. This includes MSM which is known as nature’s beauty mineral. It’s a great value! Check it out here $9.99

Splurge: More than a body lotion, this body balm is a full treatment for your skin that helps smooth and soften skin. It has a gorgeous blend of lavender, geranium, and jasmine. Osea has some devoted fans for a reason! Check it out here $48

Concealer

Save: It’s hard to find a natural concealer for a low price, but this one is on the lower end (for natural beauty) and works well. Find it here $20

Splurge: Ilia has amazing coverage and even more amazing? The shade range! This is a top favorite of many due to how many shades they offer. Find it here $30

Hand Cream
