Best Beauty Cheapies
You find yourself popping into your neighborhood drugstore for a container of milk and about an hour (and maybe $100) later, exiting with enough product for an entirely new beauty regimen. (I am guilty of this, especially when I go to Walgreens.)
To avoid getting sucked into the black hole that is the drugstore beauty aisle, check out our favorite bargain brands that will fill your vanity of the latest budget-friendly products that will keep you looking glamorous from head-to-toe.

My thoughts: I always like to use a leave-in serum after washing my hair. After towel-drying, I add a small amount (about the size of a nickel) of this silky serum to my hair from roots through my ends. After my hair dries, it is unbelievably soft and shiny. It smells great, too!
