Saving money tips #2: COSMETICS


Hi guys!
It's time for my second post about saving money tips. As everyone knows womens like spend a lot of money buying cosmetics. But it doesn't mean that we don't care about prices and saving moneys. I like to try beauty news every time when I'm going to the shop. There is always big temptation to buy new mascara, body lotion or something which I don't really need. Yesterday when I went to the shop I saw two cosmetics on a sale. It was a hair treatment and body lotion. Of course I put two of them to my basket and... and after few steps I decided take just hair product. Why? It's simple. I still have one body lotion at home so I don't need next on even if price is really, really good. Down below you'll find saving money tips which you might find reallu useful in everyday life. 

1. Don't buy new products if you still have few differents at home. 
I always had this problem when I went to the shop. When I saw sale I was buying many cosmetics and never used them. It's a big problem for most of us I think. If you see sale be carefule and resonable! Think if you really need new lipstick if you already have few at home? When you use up all your prodacts than you'll find many different sales to buy something. 

2. Always cut your empty cosmetics boxes.
If you used up your body lotion cut the box. You'll be really surprised how many products is still there. 


3. Looking for 3 for 2 or 50% off offers.
If it's time to fill cosmetics gaps try to find beneficial offer like 3 for 2 or 50% off. But! 3 for 2 offer might be a bit trick because it doesn't mean that you have to buy anthing else. Find out what you really need! This is really useful website if you're looking for good offers: http://www.hotukdeals.com/. 


4. Swap or sale.
If you bought something which is inappropriate for your skin type sale it or swap with friends. You can use many different websites like: http://www.swapz.co.uk/, http://www.freebeauty.tv/beauty-swap-shop/.

5. Returns.
Don't forget you can return cosmetics! Once I bought foundation but was to yellow for my skin. I used it few times with differents cosmetics combination but it didn't works so I decided to return. I haven't any problems. Superdrug has friendly returns policy so worth trying. 

6. Home made cosmetics.
You can always use products which you have at home to create beauty products. Just use your imagination. Here you'll find few ideas for home made beauty products. 

I hope you enjoy my second post about saving money. If you find out something useful, please let me know and share you ideas how to save money in a comments down below! :)

Project empty boxes #1

Hi there!
I wasn't here for a while... I lost my motivation and I was really lazy. Few times I tried to post something but I couldn't. Today I realized that I have a lot empty boxes! I collected them to show you my first empty boxes project. I don't know why but it's exciting when you finish some beauty products. Can you feel the same or maybe I'm odd?! Haha. So moving on, there is everything what I found in my house to show you guys.


This is my best lip balm ever! Cheap, smells nice and I love it. I meantioned about this here.

I bought this facial wash when we were traveling to Spain. Just because of flight regulation about cosmetics capacity. I don't like it at all! I hardly used it up. Really! My skin was really tight after using this one, and I felt like my skin is still dirty. I'm not gonna buy it anymore!

I mentioned about this conditioner here and here.

It's the worst anti-perspirant I've ever had! Smells not really nice and doesn't work for me. I used it up as a air freshener :D

Garnier body lotion. Hmmm it's hard to say something about this product. Actually it wasn't really bad but it's wasn't really good. I bought it on sale so I just paid something like 1,50 that's why I don't regret but to be honest, probably I'm not gonna buy this one anymore because was too sticky for me and I like really light body lotions formula.

This is my best shampoo available in the UK! I love this smell, price, and my hair after using this product. It's my fourth or fifth bottle. I really recommend! 

And I have to say again that I bought this shower milk because of sale. Probably I would never pay for shower gel more than 1 pound. I don't expect mirracles after using this kind of products. I just need nice smell and foam. That's why I'm not gonna pour into drains more than quid :) I will buy it in a future for sure...

This shower gel is my favourite because of smell. I'm aroma freak so it's the most vital things when I have to choose beauty products :)

This anti-perspirant it's definetely my favourite one! It does what it has to do, smells nice and is really gentle for my skin. Love it!

I don't like use body lotions but when I firts bought this product I felt in love. Why? Because of light formula which absorb really fast and I don't have sticky skin feeling. When I finished my firts bottle, I went to buy new and decided to take this one from picture. It was winter and I really hate cold. After using this lotion I was so angry cos I realized that this one has cooling effect! It was drama for me to use it up but I did. I still love this formula but next time I'm gonna read labels carefully :)

Neutrogena daily scrub. I really like this product. Every time when I used this one my boyfriend asked me: what's a nice smell? He really like it, so do I. This cosmetic is gentle for my skin, cleanses my face really good and lasts long. I'm gonna buy it one more time for sure!

Ufff... That's all of my empty boxes :)
I hope you are still here, read this post until the end. Please let me know if you used any of this products and what do you think about them? Now I can put all this empty boxes to the recycling bin and start collect new ones. 
Hope you enjoy guys. Please left some comment down below :)

Love,
