*Sigh*  Makeup.  One of the best things we get buy as women.  But did you know that you don’t need to pay for them full price?  Do tell!

 

-Check out flash sales.  If you haven’t checked out sales like Hautelook, Gilt, Groupon, or Livingsocial, you definitely should!  All of them always have a beauty section with items on sale!  Hautelook & Gilt tend to feature specific brands for a limited period of time; whereas Groupon & Livingsocial feature specific items on sale.  And all these sites have steep discounts on high end beauty products!  (You should see perfume sell out like hot cakes!)

 

-Shop discount websites.  Take a look at sites like Allcosmeticswholesale, Overstock, Ballbeauty, and TJMaxx, sell beauty products discounted, because they are usually “shelf pull items”; which means that they are products that have been discontinued, from last season, mislabeled, etc.  And for these reasons, they are sold at lower prices!

 

-Mix it up with honey.  Download Honey, a Google chrome extension that searches for coupons while you shop!  After you’ve downloaded it, you’ll notice that the icon will turn orange, with a number.  This number indicates how many coupons are available!  You can choose which coupon that are applicable to your purchase, & then it will add it to the promo code section at checkout!

 

-Sign up for a membership.  Have you joined Sephora’s Beauty Insider Program?  Or Ulta’s Ultamate Reward Program?  Both are completely free, allows you to accrue points with purchases, and you get a free birthday gift!  Also if you shop at CVS, they have an Extracare Beauty Club that gives you a 10% off once you enroll, & discounts also on your birthday!  Shopping smart never looked so good..  And all of them have sales and/or coupons!

 

-Leave your cart.  There are some online stores that once you add items to your cart & leave it, they will send you an email with a coupon, trying to get you to come back & make your purchase.

 

-Check out makeup tutorials on Youtube.  Not only do Vloggers feature coupon codes in description boxes, but there’s also a wealth of people swatching / reviewing products online!  Also a great plus is that some bloggers will test out a high end product, & show you a dupe in comparison!  And of course, they will tell you which one they prefer & which one is the better deal.  Just do a search of the product you’re interested in!  There’s a wealth of information out there, it’s up to you to go out & find it!

 

Feel like paying full price on makeup again?  I’m going to guess not..  Utilize these tips & never pay full price again!
