Money Saving Tips
Everyone loves getting beauty products as gifts--I know I do. With the holidays coming up, I also like to give them. But shopping for beauty gifts for your loved ones can be tough, especially if their taste tends to go towards the higher-end of things.
Read on for some ways you can get some of the top brands at discounted prices. You might even be able to score some goodies for yourself--now that's my kind of "gift-giving."

Most of us beauty junkies have at least ten products in our make up cases and bathroom that we consider essentials. I'm a sucker when it comes to name brand products. Do they really work as well as lesser priced drugstore brands? According to tests, user reviews and ingredients, just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's better. Great news for us savvy savers.
Here's my list of 10 beauty items similar to their much pricier counterparts:

Are you a hoarder? If you open your bathroom cabinet and it looks like a shelf from the drugstore, then you are definitely a product junkie. It's okay, I kinda sorta am one still. It used to be worse, where I would have 5 shampoos in the shower, because each one offered a different solution to my hair woes. But, I've since trimmed down the shampoos to just two, and two conditioners as well. What? One is for daily use, the other is "deep" conditioning.
Don't feel too bad. A recent
LA Times article talks about a woman who had 40 tubs full of cosmetics and stored them way past their shelf life. She was storing them in storage units that cost $260 a month for 5 years. Good thing she found a pro organizer who helped her move them to garage cabinets.
Who would spend $15,600 just to store cosmetics they didn't use? That's a huge waste of money and space.

It's only January, but I'm already wondering what the beauty trends will be this throughout this year. I was checking out the
2012 Fashion Week in New York and I noticed some pretty exciting trends that were sported on the runway for hair and makeup that I'm hoping will be sought-after for the year.
These are a few of my favorite looks for 2012 that are fun, cheap and easy to recreate:
