Thrifty Beauty productsBeauty can come at a cost. Make up, hair products, skincare, and other beauty products can all add up. But the good news is, there are some beauty staples that cost just pennies! Take a look below at 8 thrifty beauty products every woman needs. You will find that these products can be quite beneficial to your regimen while keeping cash in your pocket at the same time! Here is how to get started!

1. Vaseline.

Vaseline is great for softening lips, healing cracks in skin, and removing stubborn make up. Grab a container for as little as $1 and see how it can help you look your best!

2. Cotton balls.

Every woman needs a handful of cotton balls on hand. They are great for dabbing on blush or concealer. They are gentle on eyes when removing make up, and work great at removing nail polish. Want to add some volume to your hair? Tuck some cotton in your bun to bump it up!

3. An inexpensive lip liner.

An inexpensive lip liner in rose, pink, red, etc. is the perfect beauty tool. It will help your lips stay looking fuller longer, and can also be dabbed on the finger and applied as blush. Keep a lip liner on hand for quick fixes such as this.

4. Olive oil.

Olive oil does more than make your cooking taste great. Dab some on your skin for some instant hydration! You can also add it to conditioners, creams, and lotions to help them moisturize better.

5. Ice.

Ice can help you with all sorts of beauty fixes! Help minimize skin irritations and puffiness by applying a little ice to the area. You can even dip your nails in ice water to help the nail polish harden and dry faster.

6. Mayonnaise.

Your hair is sure to find mayo just as yummy as you do! Apply some to the tips of your hair to help with split ends and dryness. Just apply, wait about 20 minutes, then rinse.

7. Anti bacterial wipes.

Keep antibacterial wipes on hand to regular clean make up applicators and brushes. You can also use them to keep compacts clean. This will keep you looking your best by reducing the risk of infection.

8. Rubbing Alcohol.

Have you ever found yourself without your favorite blush or eyeshadow because in a rush you dropped it and it broke apart? Did you know you can fix it in 3 easy steps using rubbing alcohol? Just follow the directions in our post, How To Fix Broken Blush And Eyeshadow In 3 Easy Steps, and you will be all set to use your favorite blush or eyeshadow once again!

    You know, I hadn’t hear of most of these. I would have NEVER thought to use mayonnaise in my hair!

      I used to use it quite a lot when I was younger. It does work, but its not a lot of fun to rinse out if you have super thick hair.

    I’d add coconut oil to the list. I use it after my shower as my moisturizer. I love it!

    Ok, I never have thought of mayo as a beauty product, but I guess!

    These are all most certainly must haves! My favorite is Vaseline! I can be used for so, so many different things!

    I always keep vaseline on hand. I found a off brand at the $1 store that has cocoa butter in it. Makes everything softer and it smells amazing.

  11. Amy @ Marvelous Mommy says

    I’d have to replace the Vaseline with Coconut Oil! I use it on everything – dry skin, make remover, etc.

    I love using olive oil for moisturizing. It makes a good deep conditioner.

    For some reason, I had a little dry patch of hair at the crown. It was so weird, and nothing worked. I put olive oil on it for a few hours, it’s been back to normal ever since. #goodstuff!

    I actually have most of these on hand already, except for the cotton balls, but I just can’t stand how they feel.

    Interesting beauty items! I am a beauty blogger and I agree some of the household items that is already in your home could possibly make for great beauty items!!

    Vaseline, Mayo, Olive Oil, and Coconut Oil are staples in our home year round, as are cotton balls! Those are must-haves as well. 🙂
